Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Go, Allyson! Write your tail off!

When I was a kid playing soccer I was on a team with twins and another dude who were flat awesome. We went undefeated all the years I played. I so never learned sportsmanship.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just saw an ad for a drug for acid reflux. It's called Aciphex.

Pronounced "ass effects." Does no one think of these things?

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

I am now imagining a documentary on Aciphex farms, with thousands of asses cooped up in tiny cages....

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Abby and Nate start early!

We started last week (short week, though...this is our first full week).

Much middle school ~ma to them.

All kinds of middle school ~ma!!!

Next year Emmett's going to be in High School!

That is unpossible. Sorry, but totally not true.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Pronounced "ass effects." Does no one think of these things?

DH is on that, but his doctor pronounces it "Ace-effects."

This whole Aciphex discussion is going to end with more hooks, isn't it?

I can just tell.

How do you think they harvest the Aciphex?

God, I hope not.

Because books.

I can no longer remember what Aciphex does, and am instead convinced it's for improving your ass's effect on others.

Huh?

From Senator De Mint,

“And we’ve seen a lot of countries over the years collapse when they’ve gone down the road that we’re going down. Probably the most heart-wrenching experiences I’ve had over the last several days is when naturalized American citizens who have immigrated here from Germany, Iran and other countries, they come up to me and they say why are we doing what so many have fled from? Why don’t Americans see what we’re doing? And I’ve realized that these people who’ve lived under socialist type economies, and totalitarianism, they know where we’re headed if we don’t turn things around.”

Germany?

Also,

DeMint also said, “I think health care is a privilege. I wouldn’t call it a right.”

A privilege. I'm not wild about a country where health care is only for the privileged.
