Iowa has a history of being badass. My Great Grandmother was a sufferagette in Des Moines.
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

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

Jusdt said good morning to a friend here at work. I asked how he was this morning, and he said, "I am pleasantly plump and happy."

Happy birthday, Tom!

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

“Not dead yet!”
Re: the ER finale-- It was satisfying and I think for me, the whole Kem thing was there to illustrate how she never allowed herself to be family to Carter, while ultimately, you see the family he made for himself, both generations of it and if that wasn't especially poignant. Seeing him with the family that raised him and now sees him as an equal and in the end, seeing him as the patriarch, as it were, of the next generation. It had such a lovely feeling of completeness to it while still leaving the feeling that there's still so much ahead for these characters and that life does go on.

Happy Cthulhu Day!
Cthulhu Day, otherwise known as Chef Boyardee Appreciation Day, is the day where all of us petty three dimensional mortals worship our Dread Father. It is held thrice every year, on April 2nd, February 27 and December 2nd.
OK, one day late.
PZ has this to say:
It's Cthulhu Day today! There's a list of activities you should do today, but I've got my own ideas, and prefer not to tell you what they are, instead leaving you with a sense of inchoate unfolding dread.
