I'm glad, lisah. Another vet med is Fosters and Smith. (From what I remember, you had an unusual insulin.)
Willow: Yikes. Imagine the things...Buffy: No! Stop imagining! All of you! Xander: Already got the visual.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What was the movie (late '70s - early '80s?) about the family where one kid had died in a boating accident and the other kid was in therapy and the parents ended up separating because the mom resented the surviving kid because she had loved the other kid more? That was also a North Shore movie....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
That's right unlike you commie left coasters and north easterners, I live in a wonderful little pocket of the real America, a pro-America area of this great nation where people are hard working and patriotic.
I bet if I lived in the real America, I could have biked to work in 40 minutes this morning...stupid liberal elite construction workers blocking my way on AND OFF the Manhattan Bridge!
Obviously we should have named it the Real America Bridge To Freedom And Pie. Then it wouldn't need so much maintenance work.

Obamamatic for the people!
That's great! Can I tag?
Like flea, I live in a very blue pocket of a red state. An occasional pollster suggests that Obama might have a chance to win Georgia, but it seems very unlikely. Both candidates' organizations have decided that Georgia isn't American enough to court.
The senatorial race is possible, though. My plan was to vote early, but early voting is swamped. If I'm going to stand in a line, I'd rather stand in a line on Nov. 4.

(From what I remember, you had an unusual insulin.)
Oh, yes, the more expensive one I was looking at was actually the PZI Vet (which he used to be on) and that site was marketing his kind for dogs. He's on pork insulin which is about $30 a bottle. mmm bacony!

Sure, Ginger. I may even be able to scare you up an actual bumper sticker if you want.

Hmmm.... I'm sensing some anti-America behavior here. I wish the American media would take a great look at the views of the people in this thread and find out are they pro-America or anti-America.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Maybe they've been to DragonCon.

Great Chicago-set films:
Ferris Beuller
the Hughes films
Blink
The Fugitive (probably my favorite Chicago film because it spends time in the various neighborhoods as well as the touristy spots)
Blues Brothers (the first time the city fully cooperated with a film crew)
Running Scared (best car chase ever on the El tracks, as well as the great finale in the atrium of the State of Illinois building designed by Helmut Jahn)
And I have great hopes that the upcoming film version of The Time Traveler's Wife will also showcase the city.
