Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Ginger: I'm beginning to think I should start a blog called "Fukushima Won't Kill You (But I'm Thinking About It)."
Cass: I'd subscribe.
Also it sounds like it should be a Fall Out Boy song title. Which is not a bad thing to me.

I'm catching up in Boxed Set and there were some gems:
Teppy and DH on Reign:
When I saw the commercial, I asked Tim, "Wait, THE Nostradamus?"
Tim: "Is there another? Joe Nostradamus?"
And bonny on the new Dracula:
In the ballroom scene, I thought, "Wow. Vera Wang has been in business for a looooong time."

ita in Natter:
Verizon called to offer me an international calling deal. I wasn't even going to listen, because most of my international calls are Google Talk, and 12¢ a minute to JA is pretty damned good.
However, last week Google was not letting me get through, so I called on the land line--which they have now told me cost $4.35/minute.
Seriously? How can you charge that much per minute for something with no orgasms?

So, I have no idea what her real skills are as an audiologist, but she definitely has what it takes to sell used cars.

The next person to point me to a news story, and then show me how much more sensitive he is by writing "Where's the outrage?" is going to meet my new Louisville Slugger, Outrage.

Always Anti-fascist!
Thanks! Zenkitty, in Bitches: was once informed that I am a sociopath. By the guy I was living with. He ended up in jail for a series of serious crimes. I did not.
So either I'm not a sociopath, or I'm a lot better at it than he was.

Dream conversation last night.
Me (to crowd): "This is a dream, and you will all vanish when I wake up."
Man in crowd: "In the unlikely event that is true, you are kind of a dick for saying so, and not letting us enjoy what little time we have."
