Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Congrats on the clean thyroid bill of health, Perkins!

You know, when your sister seems to forget your birthday yet again, it's nice to have so many well-wishers here and on Facebook. Thanks everyone!

Aw, Megan, I'd missed it with my crazy unday. Happy bdays all!

I hope I didn't just freak out my sleeping neighbor: went up on the porch roof to clear out leaves in anticipation of coming rains. Also? all the incandescents seem to have a one year life, they are all dying at once. Been up on a ladder every night since the weekend. Need to go buy a handful more of CFLs. Bought a bunch when I moved here (a lot of the lights were dead.) I prefer Incands, but really? Yeah. Better to do the CFLs...

Because books.

Aw, I'm trying to think of an appropriate thing to say in French for you, megan, but ... my French isn't that good.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Happy Birthday to Matt, megan, Cash, and ita's dad!

Congratulations on the good news, Perkins!

Woohoo to miners recovered!

Dana, I'm sorry about the bad day.

I think you're looking for "bonne anniversaire!"

I meant in reaction to megan's sister, Burrell. Hee.

Well, I should be used to it by now, but I always hope for the best. It's just funny that my brother, who I've never been close to, never fails to remember and call, and she always manages to forget.

When I was talking to bro and sis-in-law earlier today about our planned trip to Paris, they mentioned that she was in charge of buying their tickets (a wedding present). I mentioned they might want to constantly harangue her about it until the confirmation came through.

Le sigh.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
