I am hopefully not going to have a toothache this weekend. It's not heat sensitive at the moment, and cold doesn't make it appreciably better, so that's a good sign. Of course, I also realized that this morning was the first that I didn't take advil ( for the jaw pain) so it might have always been there, just masked by the drugs. It's not throbbing now, so we'll see.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

My understanding is they don't pay taxes on any of it.

And if they are not quite pure quiverfull, their ideology is certainly a variation on that.

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

My understanding is they don't pay taxes on any of it.

That seems unlikely. It's probably a similar tax code to what governs home offices and the like. If not, everyone would declare their house a church pretty quickly whether or not they built the thing with cash.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

What's the plot of Legend... nevermind.

Just stop there. I remember seeing it once ... it seemed dark, confused, and not very good. Tom Cruise, Mia Sera and Tim Curry ... who might have saved it, except he was even less recognizable than in Rocky Horror (heavier makeup, mask, etc.).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I started reading the plot and got quickly bored. I doubt that even in my Tom Cruise crush phase I could have made it through. Unless Tim Curry dresses like a woman. That got me through Blue Money. It can get me through a lot.

But dude, it had unicorns!

Who are you?

My weekend will probably consist of going to the ER a day early, which theoretically gives me an actual workable weekend day. Should things turn out that way, I have no idea what I'll do with Sunday.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I remember really liking it when I was a kid.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

The rule is that all or any structure is used for religious services. Jim Bob ran for office in Arkansas not too long ago-though he lost.
