Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

It'll continue to play well for the base, but I think it's going to turn into both a one-note act, and an off-putting one at that.

Also there's this:

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Also, from my own experience, the people who REALLY can't find anything to wear are like size 14-16 -- bigger than many "regular" stores carry, but still smaller than plus. At least, that was my experience shopping when I was busting out of my size 14 wardrobe. I couldn't shop anywhere!

I was actually happy when I became a size 18 because I could find clothes! Any clothes!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Lands End does custom shirts for women based on measurement. They are a little pricey, but not "sell a kidney" pricey.

Really? I couldn't find anything about this on their website, but if they do do something like this for, say, $50-60 a blouse, I'd totally buy it.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that you do not fuck with librarians. Ever.

And ion, is WX donefor? Earlier this week there was talk that it was a goner and I haven't been able to find the site - - is it gone for good?

I could get on last night, but I can't today. But I am not hopeful.

So true. Plus, dude, that's not that big. BFF is, I think, a 14 and I wouldn't think of her as plus-size.

my friends are saying it's gotten the most traffic they've gotten for a post ever. The librarians are organizing and they are MAD!

The campaign is saying that she's not going to be giving interviews, or pretty much saying anything that isn't a totally canned speech. IOW, they're realizing just how much of a detriment she's going to be when she opens her mouth of her own accord. That's sure the way to pick a VP, isn't it?

Want to start taking bets on how soon the Repubs find a way to opt out of the VP debate? Maybe a last minute "family crisis"?
