GIMP, really? Much like the Islamic fundamentalists in White Teeth(whose name spelled KEVIN) they have an acronym problem. At least it isn't actually assistive technology. Right?

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

GIMP, really?

It's generally referred to as "The GIMP."

It's about as powerful as Photoshop, but free and open-source. Steep learning curve, though.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Complete waste of time. Valid passport, birth certificate and DL, not enough proof that I am me. I need my marriage license. I'm amazed I was issued a passport without all this crap.

Ugh, DJ. That is so annoying. I am SO GLAD I didn't change my name; I have heard too many stories like this.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It has never been a problem until now. But, when I went to get a new driver's license, they flipped out that my name didn't match my SS card even though I've gotten DLs since I've been married and you don't have to have a SS card to get a DL that I know of.

So off we trudged to the SS office who needs a marriage license. What if Jon and I were common law like his boss and her late husband?

Meara, I met a girl last night that looked EXACTLY like Clea Duvall. So much so that when I mentioned it, she told me that she had seen a picture of herself on a website claiming to be a candid snap of Clea Duvall. unfortunately, she likes boys, or I would have chloroformed her and shipped her overnight to Seattle.

OMG, so sad. But I appreciate the thought!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I worked out my one The GIMP task. That will do for today.

In the meanwhile, my brain is leaking out through my ears.
