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

I thought Clinton *did* have a Peace Prize (that he shared with Rabin and Arafat for the Middle East Peace Accords), but apparently that's just my brain trying to revise history.

(Or else they all won Time Man Of The Year and I'm going to be horribly embarrassed to have mixed those two prizes up.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I thought Clinton *did* have a Peace Prize (that he shared with Rabin and Arafat for the Middle East Peace Accords), but apparently that's just my brain trying to revise history.

In 1994, Arafat, Peres, and Rabin jointly received the Peace Prize. But despite his role in it, Clinton got a big steaming bowl of jack.

Jimmy Carter did receive it in 2002, and Al Gore in 2007. Both of them deserved it, but again, Clinton getting the shaft -- especially while Obama received it for, basically, Not Being Bush -- is ludicrous.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I think you misunderestimate the importance of not being Bush on the Global Circuit.

Anyhow, it's making B-J an amusing read this morning.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

A crafty alternative for those who don’t necessarily want to eat their baby’s placenta, but want to pay their respects to the life sustaining organ by turning it into a one-of-a-kind teddy bear.

So if you made a "plush" cthulu with it, would some kind of dimensional portal open?

It looked shockingly innocent for such a pain in my ass.

I think I can see what the first problem was.

Oh great, bt. I'd managed to successfully block any memory of assbabies...until now.

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 seems kinda' cool:

...until you realize that everything is edible. Then you wonder how they did that....

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

This isn't as exciting as winning the Nobel Prize, but...

For the first time in my adult life (18 years and up), I am 100% totally completely absolutely DEBT FREE!!!!! I paid off the last bit of my credit card this morning.

Wild.

And The Boy is out of town, so I have only the pets to celebrate with, and they're not as enthused as I'd like them to be. Even when I explained that no debt = more money in my wallet, which means I can buy them more snacky treats, they just weren't as excited as I am. I just don't understand their values.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wow, Steph! That's so awesome! Congrats.

“Not dead yet!”

Go Tep!

If I wasn't so unbelievably stoned, I'd be doing a happy dance for you. I'm virtually happy dancing for you. Wildly.
