We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The various FCM: M RDJ, throw the rest of them in the air and whichever ones land closest to me I'll keep.

And then turn your attention to the other side of the divide, and notice the quality of the arguments conservatives and Republicans have offered -- and continue to offer -- in this debate. Death panels. Socialism. Hitler. Government takeover. Socialized medicine. Incomprehensible charts. Incessant whining about the number of pages in a proposal.

And yet the debate starts from the point that the private health insurance business must be protected.

For every possible scenario, women preferred the non-geeky space.

PERSONALLY, I think they need a bigger sample size than 215 students. Speaking as a woman who has a Fullmetal Alchemist action figure, a ninja duck, and a DRD on her desk.

Note to self: bring more geeky items for desk from geeky collection at home.

On Tuesday night's Colbert Report, Alicia Keys mentioned that she had been on the Cosby Show when she was four. Someone over at TWOP linked to the clip--it was the leg-riding ep! I had no clue that little kid was Alicia Keys!

My desk display doesn't have too much in the way of stuff, but I do have a springy male hula dancer, an Animal (the muppet) magnet, some Mardi Gras beads, and a glass pig that I got at a pottery outlet in Williamsburg, VA when I was still in college.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I have a The Maxx action figure. A picture of Oz, one of my sisters and one of me and Jon. 3 comic drawings by my friend, puppet Angel, a COD: MW2 countdown clock and a couple of posters from our favorite Rockabilly/Dive-The Doublewide.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My desk isn't very geeky. I have a Mr. Incredible action figure, some models of old cars, and an F4U Corsair. And a picture of Zabriskie Point in Death Vally.

I don't have much for decoration. A lava lamp, an Atari 400 with a deceptive "Intel Inside" sticker, two posters from The Metropolitan Opera, boxes of various products I've worked on, and baseball caps from various companies I've worked for.
