The difference between bad vodka and good vodka is like two trips through a Brita filter.

MythBusters proved that.
also re: cats: has anyone tried the calming pheromone diffuser thing with their cats? We're thinking of trying it out and wanted some reviews.

Always Anti-fascist!
See, the real reason I couldn't be corporate has little to do with being impaired but a lot to do with the fact that reading that made me think of when Jay Landsman found a body in pieces outside a high-rise window and asked if the uniforms had "found the pogo stick yet."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
The difference between bad vodka and good vodka is like two trips through a Brita filter.
True, but since we have no Brita filters at all, any clothing-spritzing vodka I purchase will remain bad, so please don't mourn the missed opportunity.

Not when it's pronounced "learnt". Just like "aluminium" is pronounced "aluminium" no matter what people try and tell me.
It's spelled aluminum here.
Which I didn't know until I was well into my 20s, as Gram always said aluminium, so that's how I wrote it out.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Someone remind me of Cash's people are awesome story. 'Cause I just got a message from a friend that a puppy needs a home-he was found on the side of the road with his legs taped together and his mouth taped shut. I can't be getting watery eyed 5 min. before leaving.

Now that I'm trying to be an adult about my finances and finally have my paperwork under control, I have a 401(k) that I need to rollover. It's only been, er, over a year.
I've never done this before. All the forms and instructions and investment elections are making my brain hurt.

shrift, Kristin recommended this book to me a while ago. There is, of course, a newer version. She also recommended this one. I haven't made as much use of them as I ought to, but they are pretty good resources.

Jesus, Daisy. I wish you were closer because I've been getting the urge recently. I think I may try to hold out until spring though.

Good Lord that is awful, Daisy. Reminds me of the way my co-worker found his Chihuahua. He was parked at a store and happened to notice a small box behind his truck when he returned to it. He opened it to find a baby Chihuahua. Some evil fuck put it behind his tire with the assumption that it would get run over when the truck backed out of the spot. Happy ending, though, as co-worker loves his little pup.
