Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I passed my Level 2 test--thought I got 8 out of the 10 errors allowed, which troubles me--so yay!

Now I have to suck up my essential laziness and avoidance-of-things-that-test-me and pay attention to my work. Boo.

Raise (unknown so far)--yay!

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

Another thing I find sort of interesting is that the British provided the blueprint for Pearl Harbor when they disabled the Italian fleet with 21 biplanes with a surprise attack in a harbor that was also supposedly too shallow for torpedoes.

Yeah. The Japanese learned a lesson from this, but the US did not. Also, many years before the war the US Navy had war games involving aircraft carriers attacking Pearl Harbor. These exercises proved that it was possible to catch Pearl Harbor by surprise with a carrier attack.

I am drafting up some documents concerning a vendor. The company name is punctuated with an exclamation point, like, Company! I hate it, it looks so stupid in a contract-like document.

Oh, my boss's daughter's friend managed to get out of Haiti. She got a ride on a military C-130.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Congrats, Connie!
