Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, 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.

In play since 1965, with the addition of "Adjourning" during the 70s.

Happy birthday, msbelle!

Treat yourself to...BK. Or something.

Sophia's boss needs the choke-chain of corrective experience.

Self-laugher should get away from Daisy.

Teamwork dynamics makes me think: "Just because it rhymes doesn't mean it's true."

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It's basically a version of the Apple/Microsoft argument.

It makes me @@, because I hate "My choice of consumer product is morally and intellectually superior to yours!" conversations.

I use both. If I were still doing layouts, I'd be on my Mac. The billion and five spreadsheets I'm dealing with right now? I would throw my Macbook out the window and run screaming for the ThinkPad.

I think I prefer my iPod to the Zune, but I haven't used the other. And, I like my Cliq better than the current iPhone.

Go ahead and judge me.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Nice phrasing.

Speaking of phrasing, Hec, thought you might enjoy another colloquialism I heard recently: The rain was "coming down like piss out of a boot." Speaker is Georgia native (not sure what part) in his 50s.

And, I like my Cliq better than the current iPhone.

I always do a double take when I see the Cliq written down.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Phone OS. It's a phone OS.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I had BK yesterday and brought my lunch today. I am thinking of my restaurant week meals as my birthday meals.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, msbelle!

Dana! -t! Did you see Deuce is back? I don't know how he looks after a year away, but there you go.
