That trunk is awesome.
You could land a small plane on it.

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.

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

i.e. a technical manual on how to communicate with the dead.
Huh. It credits five people with authorship. One is a doctor. One is dead (the doctor). He "departed his physical body May 31, 1967. First two-way voice contact via Spiricom April 16, 1980."

This ad is just so simple and straightforward: [link]
It reminds me of Kermit's genius ad campaign in The Muppets Take Manhattan: "Soap - It Gets You Clean."

Now tagless for your comfort.
My story is unremarkable. Inadequate precautions were made and then a marriage that was likely to happen anyway was fast tracked to beat my appearance. Worked out for my parents and it's easy to remember which anniversary it is every year.
I was 18 before I figured out that my sister's 28th birthday fell just five months after my parent's 28th wedding anniversary.
My mom was a mother at 18, a grandmother at 36 and a great grandmother at 56. If my niece's daughter continues the pattern and my mom lives another 10 years, she'll be a great-great grandmother at 74.
I wish I had free ice cream.

Interestingly, adding the Violent Femmes into my Pandora station that used to give me all 80s music has, in addition to improving my 80s music, started to pull in 90s music. Apparently Pandora thinks the Violent Femmes were ahead of their time.

I'd mail you some except for three things. One, I currently lack the drive to buy ice cream and mail it. Two, I don't know where you live. Three, the ice cream would probably be suboptimal by the time it got there.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Wow Kathy, just wow.
I feel like I have been very very lucky in life.
My mom went to grad school before having kids, so she had us in her 30s. My older siblings would have been older than mine are now, 10 and 7. But I'm basically in sync with her on the last two, I would have been 6 and my brother would have been 4. I find that comforting, but also a little uncanny.

Seriously. Eyeballs and skin are very important constituent parts of my personal life satisfaction.
