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.

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.

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

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

Lots of conservative religious people eschew birth control. Arguably ALL of them are variations on Quiverfull. "They're trying to breed themselves into dominance" has been opined about all of them (and by some of them).

I don't know if there is pure Quiverfull. I don't think it's a membership thing with dues and rules and a Quiverfull Pope so much as a philosophy adopted in various degrees and permutations by various people. It seems to be, like so many things, largely a matter of self-identification.

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

A whole bunch of the guys in my department have started watching "Jersey Shore" and discussing it all the time in the office. I cannot stop cringing. All day, people talking about how Guidos are so stupid and hilarious.

Which had no horns or strange virgin mythology...or did it?

I had a friend who sent out "I am no longer a friend to unicorns" postcards when she lost her virginity. Internationally. She was odd in many ways.
