Well, sure. Fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous communist plot we have ever had to face.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm taking another half-day off this afternoon (took one yesterday, have another one coming up on Friday), so I'm outta here in 20-30 minutes. I've gotten some mindless tasks done, but that's about it.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Argh -- I just remembered I haven't totally nailed down a complicated meeting I'm supposed to be setting up for next week! Panic!

I dedicate this one to Cindy's cat stacking obsession.
Oooh, good literary rule of thumb.

or years the United States should remain in Iraq.
I'm tempted to start a "Pacifists for McCain" website.
