Scrappy, that wedding sounds made of AWESOME.
Owen just pinned Liv to the floor and said, "I'm playing Ultimate Fighter!" I foresee lots of visits to the principal's office in our future.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I linked to it in the Gaming thread.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Ooops. That's the danger of not being subbed to every thread. I'm invariably behind somewhere.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Mmmm, my curry is good tonight.
Took the TJ's curry simmer sauce. Added: greek yogurt, orange juice, cardomom, cayenne, cinnamon, pepper and salt.
Put in: organic cauliflower, savory baked tofu, mushrooms. (Should of had some red bell pepper, but I didn't)
Served Over: Rice a Roni. (Except I skipped the flavor packet, so rice and pasta bits cooked in butter then boiled.)
Topped with: dollop of greek yogurt (see: sort of like sour cream)
Anyway, obviously I was playing fast and loose with Indian cuisine, but it tastes YUM.

they were scared of the live band and kept hiding under the audience
Well, DUH!!
I have "hit by a bus" notes and emails out everywhere. I ended up writing up a lot for my old job when my job-sharing coworker was laid off and I had to give crash courses because I was scheduled for vacation the month he was laid off. Served me well when I had to train my replacement. And I trained her damned well, if I say so myself. I think we took the training wheels off within 6 weeks or so. And of course, with the new job, I've been writing everything down as I learn it from my predecessor because there is no way I can remember all this shit. I've made sure to save it in our common areas so it can be easily found.
I actually sent out an email Friday with the subject "if I get hit by a bus" because I was in the middle of a huge project launch and I really really really wish I could have stayed home, I was so miserable. And I wish I could skip tomorrow, but again, launch, I need to be the one to send out the initial status report. After that, I can just say "I'm dying of snot. Please go to xxx and follow the instructions there."
eta: D and the roomba crack me up.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Indeed. And those commercials were my first impression of SF. Followed by: The Doris Day Show, The Streets of San Francisco, Dirty Harry, Phyllis (the Mary Tyler Moore spinoff) and My Sister Sam.
Also, the woman who sang that jingle did the female vocals on the Partridge Family Albums. Shirley Jones did the vocals on the TV show, but not on the albums.

“Not dead yet!”
The Streets of San Francisco
Oh man, young Michael Douglas and Karl Malden.
And what, no Bullitt?

They thought Shirley Jones was too rock 'n roll, and they wanted someone more accessible?

Oh yeah, I saw that in college. Add it to the list.

They thought Shirley wasn't rock and roll enough for the albums. But it would be weird to dub her on TV when she had a world famous musical theater voice.
