Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Hey, guys. Does anyone speak German? I have four sentences I need translated into German ASAP.

Anyone up for it? Or know anyone?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Kathy, you were in my dream last night -- I was trying to coach you through writing some fanfic of some kind, and Lawrence Watt Evans was helping.

That's so cool! Nice to know I'm on someone's mind in a good way (my mom tends to worry too much).

Unfortunately, Alibelle, I tried to take German in high school, but not enough people signed up so I had to take Spanish instead. Not that any of that stuck in my head, either...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Alibelle, I might be able to help if they're really simple sentences.

Thank you so so so much!

1) Everything he does seems either brilliant or brilliantly calculated for effect.

2) Finally, on April 4th, 1969, Jim Morrison surrenders.

3) All songs are credited simply to The Doors.

4) But, he doesn't say when and John can tell his voice is slurred.

Sorry, those are all way beyond my German skills.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You might try pinging Fiona in the UnAmerican thread.

Damn. Is there any way to save that video file? I'd really like to share it with my students without streaming it (which I'm not supposed to do).

Emily, you have tigers in your email; I hope the kiddos like them.

Gnyarg. I really do need an antenna for PBS when the weather is rough. It was fine Sat & Sun, but is wonky tonight. I miss my snowy picture. Strength is 100%, quality is shit.

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

Pro'lly NSFW, as it has a naked Obama butt.

The artist is apparently somewhat well-known for his series of paintings of famous people with pancakes on their heads.
