Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Whoa. The Reserve Bank of Australia just dropped interest rates by a full 1%. That's quite a vote of no confidence in the world economy. A vote of much higher confidence in my mortgage, OTOH.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Daddy went on to call his doctor to schedule having his colostomy bag removed. Sometimes cell phones are TMI.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm imagining the world economies like menhirs at Stonehenge, and they're toppling, very slowly, like dominoes.

Red Sox win, and Tampa Bay wins and they both go on to the next round.

Four teams left. Oh how I'd love to see the Red Sox vs. the Dodgers.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

At least the blackout at the Cell was pretty cool. [link]

Yeah, but their last World Series win was in 2005. They better make nice with Frank Thomas so he wears black going into the Hall.

I'm not actually arguing your point, but my initial reaction was, "Yeah, yeah, tell it to the north side."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I have been at the er since 10:30 this morning. Dislike the medical profession right now.

Holy crap! I went to the DMV and, uh, it was fairly efficient.

HIMYM was totally my life right now.
