You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

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

Congrats Sparky!

I'm sorry for your kiddies' health woes, Kat. I hope they're better soon.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Every year the Eurovision contestants strive to remind us all that The Apple was not nearly the parody that most Americans assume, and this year is no dissappointment.

The winning entry, from Norway

The AWESOME entry, from Serbia.

That Norwegian kid terrifies me. I think he might be plotting to come to my house and kill me and eat me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The Norwegian singer is about the cutest thing I've ever seen. t edit I didn't see flea's post when I posted mine -- you think he's scary? But he's so adorable! I want to pinch his cheeks and make him soup!

And the Serbs are 100% kickass AWESOME indeed.

Trust my rage

The Norwegian kid was cute - but everything else was scary. Off to see the second one now.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yeah, Maddow and whatshisface were cracking wise about the Norwegian kid last night, but I thought he was kind of adorable.
