If Keillor doesn't like what UUs have done to Silent Night (which, if he isn't singing in German, he needs to shut the fuck up about changing the lyrics), he should come to one of the Easter services and learn what we've done to those hymns. "Lo the Earth Awakes Again, Alleluia" to the tune of Lyra Davidica and the underlying rhythm of Charles Wesley spinning in his grave in 4/4 time.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My car is growing an enormous snow ass.

Hey, anyone other than me think John Hamm looks like the attractive brother of Kevin Sorbo?

Thank you, Shrift! I no longer feel crazy!!!
I'm wearing a rubber glove on my head right now, AIFG!

Made it to karate today. Yay! I really missed group class. Now I'm waiting for KCD to pick up CJ and I am going to hit the consignment store to (hopefully) find an outfit for Christmas Eve.
Then it is folding laundry, finding luggage, preliminary packing, and cookie baking.
hyperbole
No need for hyperbole. Literal and relatable are just fine. "Above my knee height" was an excellent description. Is it waist-high yet?
Wow. Bed Bath and Beyond was poised to be a clusterfuck, with all the cars turning in to it. But they had adequate parking and had every cash register open, so it was actually the quickest I've been in and out. Their 20% coupons are genius. I feel compelled to check them out for a certain category of stuff, because I figure they're competitive, above and beyond any actual price research.
This is news? That requires a "source"? The Gosselin kids don't believe in Santa, and they've told other kids that he's not real. [link]
