Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

It smells really good.

I bet it does. I'm just going to throw some chicken on the grill tonight. I need to stop and get some charcoal on the way home though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm getting all gloomy and paranoid about the collapse of the United States as we know it.

Eh - I'm pretty much resigned to it.

OK, not really.

the collapse of the United States as we know it

If it leads to the collapse of the rampant cynicism, classism, and corruption, I'm for it.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

McCain advisors say they will do all the debates but the schedule is up in the air.
They also deny that there is a political calculation in this and say without action the country could slide into a Depression by Monday and added "we'll see 12 percent unemployment" if action is not completed. GOP sources say they believe the current deal is dead on the Hill and reject suggestions that without McCain's vote Democrats would not support a package.

Dude. I know shit's bad, but by Monday?

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

Distract yourself with this. It's good reading.

David Foster Wallace's Commencement Address at Kenyon College 2005

Suzanne Vega went to high school with EM. Performing Arts (aka, Fame school). She was quiet back then, and self-identified as Puerto Rican. Same class included Elizabeth Pena and Ving Rhames (in the dance program, if you can imagine that).

Yeah, I don't think those things would go away.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

If it leads to the collapse of the rampant cynicism, classism, and corruption, I'm for it.

Somehow I doubt that would be the result.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I'm back from the new dentist.

Very nice. All the office people, very nice. I still hate them. I feel bad about it, but I can't separate the people from the poking of metal instruments in my mouth.

Even Rove has doubts about Palin:

A Toronto businessman asked him if he thought Sarah Palin would make a good President. "I don't know," said Rove.

eta: Perhaps I should have said, "Even Rove is expressing doubts about Palin." I'm sure lots of Republicans have doubts but are playing along with the program....

I thought this is a good commentary about Palin.

Sexist treatment of Palin must end
