Natter 65: Speed Limit Enforced by Aircraft
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.
He's blue and he's furry and he makes a nasty smell when he teleports. But he's shy and he's funny and he likes to pretend he's a pirate and he's very very brave. And he has a bit of that "Am I bound for hell?" thing about him that I've apparently found hot for a very long time.
Movie Nightcrawler? Not as much, despite being played by Alan Cumming. They made him scaly.
Okay, see that's the only Nightcrawler I know. And while I do love Alan Cumming a lot, that particular look didn't quite do it for me, yeah.
Her friend is a badass. She's apparently high enough rank now she apparently doesn't have to fly as much as she does, but she loves flying. Worries PJ a lot. Since she's single (and deployed to bumfuck warzone a lot, so like my brother when he was deployed, $$ aplenty, little to spend it on) she tries her best to spoil PJ and the kids as much as possible. I've never met her, but I love her for that alone. This past xmas, she sent several hundred for PJ to buy presents.
Aw, she sounds awesome, sara. I can imagine, too, if you love to fly, ranking out of the task isn't actually going to be too satisfying.
My brother is on his last tour in Afghanistan now. He sent pictures of their camp setup -- on a slow day they built a deck. Which? Boys with free time up to ... good, I guess! Compared to their last digs there, where they apparently had a big-screen TV, this is a lot more primitive.
My brother got into so.much.trouble when he was deployed to Macedonia during the Serbia thing. Boredom is dangerous. Apparently, spanish troops? Throw wicked all day parties. I'm in possession of the only prints of pictures he took. Needless to say, most of them are crooked. The Clintons came to base at one point, and what did they take pictures of? Why, posing with the Secret Service dudes and their sniper rifles.
Heh. Your brother sounds awesome, too.
Charlie showed me the pictures he took last trip over Christmas, and they were so grim. Actually some were bleakly beautiful, too, but most of them were grim.
He and the SEALs he's there with seem to have, uh, their fun from time to time, too, though.
xpost from Bitches: TurboTax has changed their free e-file guidelines and now my AGI is too high. Anyone got a rec for another good free e-file company? H&R Block work well? I meet their criteria.
I haven't had any problems with H&R Block, that I know of. And I just told them I would be somewhat likely to recommend them, so....
In addition to the deep contemplations on the X-Men, which is killing me, Steph is also killing me:
Yo yo yo!!! Ear wacks all up in the hizzouse!
This made me laugh really hard.

This also made me laugh.
FYI.
Also, here are a bunch of pictures from the Sarah Palin event here today, including a bunch from the REAL Tea Party: [link]
So I gave it careful consideration, and I've actually found I can rank most of the male, straight X-men in terms of desirability.
I only find that mostly sad.
