Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

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

This is very strange: The Recently Deflowered Girl

I found this book on my friend's 84-year-old landlord's bookshelf. Published in 1965 with illustrations by Edward Gorey, I present to you The Recently Deflowered Girl.

Worksafe, unless your place of work frowns on you reading stuff with "deflowered" in the title....

Another blog sez:

The Recently Deflowered Girl is a 1965 etiquette book for those awkward moments you hadn’t planned for, written by Edward Gorey under the name Hyacinthe Phyppe, an expert in such matters. In each “deflowerment” situation, the proper thing to do apparently is to provide a witty comeback. The entire scanned book is online with Gorey illustrations.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

so they've been together for a while.

well let's see, what was the show Jason was on before Atlantis? That would have been the last time I was looking for photos of him and there were many with him and a redhead, I think.

Three deer just strolled right up to our office and are currently walking the length of the building only a few feet from the windows! It almost looks like they're peering in to see what we're having for lunch (but they're more likely seeing their reflections in the glass).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The Hawaii show or something else?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I just made the perfect batch of Kraft Mac & Cheese. The pasta was al dente, the ratio of cheese powder to butter & milk was just right. Creamy and delicious.

I want more but I know I'll never succeed in matching this box.

The kids are devouring it.

“Not dead yet!”

They make a gorgeous couple, that's for sure. With ... a lot of hair. I bet the kid is beautiful.

Definitely. He's one fine specimen of man and she's gorgeous and looks way better than anyone my age should look, dammit. Although it gives me hope.

Baywatch: Hawaii

::is ashamed to actually know that even though I never watched the show::
