Timelies all!
The other members of the concom are sick, so our meeting has been postponed. Oh, well.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Happy Daylight Saving Time, USians!
An unidentified man was rescued from a waste tank under a rest stop bathroom on Highway 30 near Filer, Idaho on Thursday. He had climbed into the tank to look for his keys. Another driver found him and called emergency services. Police, firefighters, paramedics, and other emergency response personnel responded, and found the man up to his neck in sewage. They summoned highway maintenance department workers, who retrieved the man by opening an access port used to remove waste.
Turns out the keys were in his back pocket.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
That's a bad day.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Why wouldn't you check your pockets first? Ugh.

My guess is he habitually puts them in his front pockets.
Sorta reminds me of the woman who was convinced her neighbor had stolen her keys. So she broke in and trashed her neighbor's house or burned it down or something. Then her boyfriend arrived and found her keys in her back pocket.
The moral is: Don't climb into the latrine or burn down someone's house before you check all your pockets.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Words to live by, for sure.

Octo-mom's current publicist quits, says "She's nuts." [link]
The saga of Nadya Suleman, a.k.a the Octo-Mom, continues. US Weekly reports that her new publicist, Victor Munoz, has quit, calling Suleman "nuts." The public relations group that previously represented Suleman quit in late February due to receiving death threats. This time, however, her publicist left due to personal reasons:
According to Munoz, the family is "freaking out right now. Not to sound arrogant, but those people depended on me for everything. You have no idea what I've had to do for these people.
"Nadya got real greedy. This woman is nuts," he continued. "This I can say: what ultimately destroyed the business arrangement was personal reasons."
It's possible that Munoz, regarding Suleman getting too greedy, is referring to the report from TMZ that she is shopping around her birth tape for seven figures.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Those poor children are going to end up like the Dionne Quintuplets, with a pay-per-view webcam rather than a nursery with a glass wall.

I feel like I've lost the ability to comment on Suleman without it becoming a rant. Or a whimper... those poor kids. My heart goes out to them. (And by poor kids, I mean all 14. sigh.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I think it might really be time to quit smoking (I know, I know....). They just went up another dollar, which means my local deli just charged me TEN DOLLARS for a pack. I can save a dollar a few blocks away, but STILL. I remember when they went over two bucks, and we thought that was a lot!
