Oh look, the Greatest Canadian inventions
I knew about insulin. I have the tiniest of connections to it. My grandfather managed the Swift & Co. packing plant in Toronto that supplied the fetal calf pancreases to Banting and Best.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Do all the gymnasts have to carry their own bags from event to event? I haven't noticed until just now. I'm surprised they don't have people to take care of that!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Ladies and Gentleman, we have a winner!
The opening ceremony just got a little more interesting.
Ok, that Miley Cyrus song. I quite like the music, it's all perky and determined. But I keep feeling the need to argue with the lyrics. "I've got my sights set on you, and I'm ready to aim." That is aiming! You're already aiming! Sheesh. And apparently she's worked out the guy wants to see her again, with no other clue to guide her than that he asked her out. Apparently her way of knowing when something is right is English comprehension. Gah. Makes me want to slap her. And her best friend Leslie.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Billytea, Im having a frog-eating bat problem.
I think you're the only other person on the board who could sympathize with that sentence.
