Because books.

I'm willing to bet these aren't the only incidents with that kid, either, Cash. Behavior like that tends to be across the board.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Behavior like that tends to be across the board.

Yep yep yep.

Okay, even freakier is that she looks like a sexed-up Julie Kavner.

Can they program it to giggle in the voice Marge Simpson uses when Homer gets frisky?

A cool map of Chicago's faded advertising, old ads painted on the sides of buildings. Just click on a section of the map and then click on the red dots of the map close-up.

Marge is totally hot. Especially when she was a policewoman.

I am riding the cholesterol express this morning. Just had a fried egg sandwich with bacon on crunchy, whole grain toast.

It was good!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I agree with Amy and ChiKat, Cash.

I think I need a do-over for this morning. Several things aren't working right, plus my boots aren't right with this dress.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

700 pound bear, eluding capture, terrorizing Lake Tahoe, snacking at the fridge.

"I have a refrigerator in the garage. He opened it up, drank a gallon of orange juice, opened the freezer above and munched two frozen pizzas and snacked on frozen chicken," Philpott said. "He broke all the shelves and racks out of the refrigerator, bit into some fruit punch and squirted it all over everywhere, then dragged the trash can outside and took a crap the size of a basketball on the front lawn."

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm willing to bet these aren't the only incidents with that kid, either, Cash. Behavior like that tends to be across the board.

I'm tempted to ask, "is he a little asshole to everyone, or just us?" I'm going to mention it to his classroom teacher just as a concern and see what she says.

I made a blood donation appointment for Thursday. Now I shall be forced into clean living by necessity, or miss out on an exciting raffle opportunity.

And fortuitously, I brought in a necklace I received on mistake from Etsy to give to a coworker, who also brought me a belated birthday gift today.
