I started auditing a morning class in 3D animation -- same material I had earlier this year, new teacher. God damn, but I like working with that 3D stuff!
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

The kids are out playing in the pouring rain, and happy as a couple of frogs. Kids are so funny.

How is the name Aisling pronounced?
Speaking of pronunciation, we are having a pub quiz at our company meeting tomorrow. The tie-breaking question will involve either pronouncing or spelling my last name.
I'm not sure if I want to see a tie or not.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
PBS has an online poll posted asking if Sarah Palin is qualified. [link] And an interesting story about the poll. [link]

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
well, there should be some entertainment value to hearing them TRY. I used to save instances where people managed to spell my name - plain, simple, unconvoluted, English/Scottish names, of four or five letters - wrong. One genius managed to get first, last, AND middle names wrong.

The meeting I'd been dreading for almost two weeks (which was put off more than a week by my sick leave) turned out to be fairly short, almost painless, and almost every preliminary recommendation I made last Monday while congestion-addled was approved to pass on to the vendor as directions.
It's almost as if I actually command professional respect.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I...I...I...
Definitive proof that shame and irony are as foreign to Cindy McCain as they are to her husband.
It beggars belief. It beggars outrage, satire, language itself. Any minute now, The Onion is going to print a giant headline saying FUCK IT, WE QUIT and close up shop.

God, I'm sorry. I feel like I have to apologize to the world for living in their hapless platform. I voted against them when the chance presented, but... sigh But apparently opiates aren't like gingko for the cognitive faculties. It's only a smear if it's not true, Mrs. McSame.

Dude, you have nothing to apologize for. It's not your fault that an Arizona seat came vacant when he'd just conveniently married a woman rich enough to buy him an extra house or two to qualify for state residency!
And it's not like California hasn't cheerfully elected its share of godforsaken horrors. One of the nicest things about turning 33 for me? At long, long last I'd spent more of my life not under Ronald Reagan's governance than under it.

What's with the royal "we" in the interview? If "we're" elected? Is she serious? I mean, I don't recall even Hillary pulling out the royal we during any of the Big Dawg's campaigns. She may have, but I don't remember it.
