May the specialists be particularly skilled and help you more than your expectations, sj.

I had totally forgotten that stage with the kids. It was really cute.

bonny, those links don't work for me.

Me either. 404 message.

smonster, yay for the Frankie friendly bar! We have a few of those around here. I think though, that Bartleby prefers entertaining at home.

Dog friendly bars are the bomb. I need to find one in my neighborhood. It's okay in summer when I can bring her on the patio.

I'm picturing him with a martini in one paw, wearing a Hefner-esque smoking jacket. So, basically Brian from Family Guy.

Steph, with your recent Sheldon revelations you might appreciate this. We were watching Family Guy over the holidays and both my brother and sis were saying it was the funniest show ever made.

I was all "I like it enough but I don't know about funniest."

My brother gives me this weird look and says "I'm...kind of surprised to hear you say that. Because, you are Brian."

I couldn't really argue the point. Though I wanted to. And said so, acknowledging that that actually only strengthened their case.

Hopefully the links in my crosspost are fixed. (I linked to jpg that looked terrible. These will open in pdf)

Trying again after eliminating bad elements in my last post.

Please indulge my call for creative criticism of a piece I am working on. Which is better:

WITH a photo.

Or, WITHOUT.

I desperately need a non-dyslexic proofreading as well. Any other comments will be gratefully received at my profile addy or in Bitches.

Many thanks!

Totally! He is very schmoove with the ladies. He doesn't have a smoking jacket, but he DOES have white tie and tail.

Ahahaha! I love Brian. Despite the fact that Family Guy has turned into one continuous rape joke (with bonus trans* bashing!), I really liked the first few seasons.

"Can you provide peer-reviewed data to support that superlative?"

Your B-boy is awesome.

Exactly!

And that's pretty much what I was thinking but not saying.

He doesn't have a smoking jacket,

He could have. Maybe just for Halloween.

Your B-boy is awesome.

Idn't he though?

Right now, he's schmooshed up behind me in my office chair, snoozing. This means, of course, that I'm perching on about a 3 inch ledge at the front of the chair. No mean feat for thisbackside, I can tell you that.

It's nice though, he's warm...and when he dreams, I get a magic-fingers massage!
