Dear sweet Jesus, the CSR girls are literally squealing at each other. Normally they wait till mid afternoon to do that, but I guess the slowdown in workload--Praise be!--has inspired them to be more insipid than usual.

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.
This somehow frightens me more than your other perversions. I think Ike is underappreciated, especially in comparison to later Republican presidents, but... sexy?
I'm grading on a curve. The uniform is like extra credit or something. I dunno.
Thomas Dewey
Still not sexy.
To distract ita: Art Nouveau Dragonfly table.
"I'm sorry, Michael Palin, to say you're not the funniest Palin anymore, but you're not."
I don't know about sexy, but maybe the most bad-ass president. Dude took a bullet and still delivered a ninety minute speech.
I just (well, last night) read a thing at Cracked ranking badass Presidents, and they had Teddy at #1 for just that reason.
Although Andrew Jackson clearly should have been #2:
Most badass quote: "I have only two regrets: I didn't shoot Henry Clay and I didn't hang John C. Calhoun." That's right. In a life rich with murdering people for little-to-no reason, Jackson's only regret was that he didn't kill quite enough people. People like Calhoun who, it should be noted, was Jackson's vice president.
And now for something completely different: Death Panda
They just don't write spine tinglers about killer pandas like they used to. Check out Heroic Comics #35, Facing Death in a Panda's Mouth, in its entirety below the fold.
Pandas really don't have such huge, pointy canines, do they? Unless the rare giant killer death panda does....
The comic is pretty awesome, for all values of 'awesome' = 'terrible'....
I had xtra sharp cheddar and a honeycrisp apple for lunch (and a few crackers). I know I'll be hungry soon but, dag, it was delicious!

If I were a piece of bamboo, I'd be pretty damned scared of 'em: [link] (they are carnivores, after all, even if they're freaky vegetarian carnivores.)
She's like a nice looking parrot ....
I might have to vote for john cleese for something...
