Well, more like great-great-many-times-great-aunt of all squid, but it's still a spectacular fossil. Behold the Cambrian mollusc, Nectocaris pteryx.
The money was too good. I got stupid.

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

I often am guilty of VPN at yoga. V, a woman I practice with, never has that problem because she clearly doesn't wear underwear at yoga at all. This is clear because she also wears tights that thin out, as tights do, when stretched. I find that more distracting than VPN.
I think the Venus Williams French Open outfit is just tacky. I think the can can thing might have been better if the bottoms were red. I am also irked at her, "I didn't know how well it matched my skin tone" argument that she used when Serena showed her pictures because she used the same argument at the Australian Open. She may not have realized it once is plausible. But not realizing it twice means she's either a liar or stupid.

Has anyone ever wanted to learn how to pick a lock? There's this "hacker space" in Chicago that's gonna do a class on it next week: [link]
Maybe I'll go.... It could be a useful skill during a zombie apocalypse or natural disaster or something.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
They have that around here, too! I was interested.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hee. You totally beat me to it, Amy, but you didn't mention Sammy's special lock pick kit, so I will.

Anyone want to rent the top 2 floors of my next door neighbor's house until August 2011? $1.1K/mo. He's off to grad school, living in the basement apt on weekends with his 4 year old daughter.
Takers? Anyone? He's really cool and kid is sweet and makes awesome strawberry rhubarb cobbler?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
San Francisco style
As an actual San Franciscan, I must say: uhhhh...no. Maybe if they took out all the stone and the frilly curtains and quintupled the price, maybe.
