Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Hell, for Perkins - bacon camp.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Woo-hoo! Just used my google fu to answer the above Word question. Within 30 seconds I had a solution that worked and boss lady's admiration!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Me: Can I try the vichyssoise?

Me: Can I try the vichyssoise?

Girl: The what?

Me: The cold one.

Girl: Oh!

The cold one.

A one that is not cold is hardly a one at all.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just ordered a potato-bacon pizza for dinner. I'm not sure what's become of me.

You have a taste for awesomeness?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

From waaaaaaaay back (like, the very first of the 500ish posts I just caught up on):

OMG! New Orleans! I live there! I am not sure what our deal is, we might be going to Baton Rouge for a day or two, but let me know if you continue to have problems finding a place to stay- we have a queen sized air mattress here (also 2 cats)

Woohoo New Orleans! We lucked out and found a room at a B&B, but thank you so much for the offer! Also, I'd love to get together for a drink or something if you & Tom will be around. We'll be arriving Friday evening and leaving Monday afternoon. I know we'll be spending a fair amount of time with Mark's friend L., but we have no firm plans as of yet. Profile address is good if you want to set something up!

New Orleans!

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

I know what's going to become of you if you order that very often.

I like Rubio's better than Chipotle for fast food burritos, but I'm rarely in a position where I have to resort to something like a fast food burrito. What with the non-chain burritos being in abundance hereabouts.

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

I just got asked to locate an article from the journal of Small and Special machines.

It's pretty much impossible for me not to think dirty thoughts about that one.
