Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I have envy of the overdressers. I've always been too timid in my dress, I know. And too guilty to spend the money to buy truly gorgeous clothing. And I'm too friggin' lazy to be honest.

“Not dead yet!”

My FiL quite admired Jilli's wardrobe, especially after we told him it was her daily style of dress.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Thanks, guys. Helen might pop in later, when she gets an internet connection (phone misbehaving).

Ouise, is it one of the hospitals in the city? It might get there in the mail overnight.

Yes, it is. That's a good point.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't remember if we had a standards for what was worn underneath.

I hope so!

I have inherited a pet peeve from my mother: Their minister wears a robe to preach in, and thinks that means it doesn't matter what he wears under it. We can still see your pants and shoes! Crappy khakis and boat shoes are not appropriate!!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My late Uncle, who was a Federal judge, wore boat shoes and jeans under his robes all the time--the only excuse was that he often went right from court to his actual boat.

But his job as a judge was behind a desk, right? Not the case for the minister.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Metro North is getting rid of its last bar cars!

A lot of the people I have friended on Facebook talk about their personal relationships with God. As an atheist and a curmudgeon, I wish they'd stop talking about how God likes carrots and just update their Relationship Status already, and this is why I'm going to hell.

There's a lot of things that I wish people would stop talking about on Facebook. God is just one of many.
