We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

While some people use actual vibrators, I just tap the stem near the flowers.

OMG really? Vibrators for plant sex. I find that hilarious.

smonster's heart just leaped and she doesn't know why.

smonster nearly shorted her keyboard with the drooling. GIVE THEM ALL TO ME NOW. The Deco style in particular. ::sigh::

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

The news that China may now be the world biggest energy customer comes based on analysis by the International Energy Agency (IEA). According to the IEA, China overtook the U.S. in energy consumption sometime last year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yes, it's just baffling why a chain family restaurant would put macaroni & cheese on their children's menu. Most kids I know would definitely prefer a nice piece of grilled fish with steamed veggies on the side.

Lord knows that's what I eat at Friendly's! Oh no, wait.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Now I can't tell if my office is cooling off or I'm just acclimating to the searing heat.

Heh.

It's weird - people have been talking for years about how much energy we waste in the US with our SUVs... but if every US SUV driver instead drove an economy car, the amount of energy we save would be dwarfed by the increases in energy use in China....

Cashmere mentioned crushed Goldfish crackers in the car. OMG, crushed Goldfish cracker permeates every vehicle we have.

At work I now have to modify the payroll system I maintain to work with Saudi Arabia employees. So my boss just showed me a demo of a payroll system for Arabic countries. How much employees get paid depends on what religion they are. Also, there's a place to enter multiple wives for an employee. Huh.
