I only watched the second half of the press conference, so I hadn't caught that.
Now, what she *did* say would have had the same result, but it's not a death threat.
Did you see the foot fault there? I didn't see one in the replay.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
And Aurelia, ND and I were both so sad to hear your news. Best luck finding something else soon, but what a loss for the community. And for you.
Thanks. It will be interesting to see what reaction there is in Highland Park when it's officially announced on Monday.
I'm not completely unemployed (which I think makes me ineligible for unemployment - I'm not sure how that works), but that was approx. 1/3 of my income and my source of insurance. It is strange to suddenly have an empty calendar for October and December (and beyond).

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
The best way from laguardia to anywhere is taxi, unfortunately.
Yay for the corporate AmEx then. We're spoiled in Chicago.
The other two airports have good rail links, but LaGuardia still sucks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Take that, giant squid!
Fifty-seven years ago, Nobel laureates Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley came up with a model to calculate the power behind electrochemical currents in neurons--a great step forward in understanding how the brain worked and how it divvied up resources. The only problem was that their subject was not a person, or even a rodent, but a giant squid. Today, researchers announced that they have found a more accurate model for mammal brains, which elevates some of their transactions to three times more efficient than that of the squid-based equations.

A long time ago I posted a link to this insane yappy dog and its bizarre yapping attack. Well apparently this has been a popular video to remix. So I present: Dog Malfunction - Jazz Version
