Xander: Am I right, Giles? Giles: I'm almost certain you're not. Though, to be fair, I haven't been listening.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

A solution to the economic crisis by Natalie Portman and Rashida Jones [link]

We had layoffs yesterday, so I sent this to those of us still left today. Layoffs suck!

I keep seeing this story on Google Finance

Greenspan Concedes to `Flaw' in His Market Ideology

The title reminds me of the Death Star in Star Wars IV.

"Sir, I've analyzed the market and there is a potential flaw in this economy, should we regulate?"

"Regulate now? In our moment of growth? I think you overestimate the risk."

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Favorite Muppet Show sketch?

Two that stand out that haven't been mentioned are "Time In a Bottle" sung by a young muppet who got older as he sang (put a lump in my wee young throat), and one with two old muppet dudes who called each other "old bean." My BFF at the time and I thought that was hysterical and called each other "old bean" for a long time after.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

And here's the Swedish Chef with the bandito lobsters.

Possibly I should get back to work now.

I was wrong - the muppet starts old and gets progressively younger: [link]

Weird, I was remembering there being a young muppet on a beach...

“Not dead yet!”

Nate just came home from a horrible day at school.

I just showed him several Swedish Chef clips. All is now right with the world.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I loved the Lynn Redgrave episode where the entire show turned into a pirate ship.

Also the episode where the pigs took over.
