They are all in my car.

My car is at the mechanics'.

At the end of the day, you will still have 4 umbrellas. I, however, already lost the one I brought into work on Metro.

I love watching little kids speak foreign languages. My brain goes "that little girl can speak French!" though logically, of course she can speak French. She IS French!

Didn't Cherie Blair keep working as a barrister or something while Tony was the PM? And they had smallish kids, too. Is the British system that different?

Am I crazy, or is Hugh Laurie a brunet and Boris Becker a redhead?

Those things aren't necessarily mutually exclusive...

They were each described as blond upthread, and I was confused!

I wouldn't consider Hugh Laurie blond at all.

Though I still describe myself as blond, while my hair gets darker and darker every year. I don't think anyone else would call me blond.

Saw that this morning, Jesse-- and sad part is, the first thought that occurred to me was "Damn, what does it say about Sarah Palin that we were all willing to believe her capable of that level of ignorance?"

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

That we expected it given that George W. Bush thinks the same thing? [link] (audio at link)

Yeah, no level of ignorance surprises me anymore.
