Anya ,'Sleeper'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Its title was "mysterious centimeters". I laughed.
For a moment, I misread that as "mysterious centipedes" which would make a good band name.

I bet drunk grading goes better in sitcoms than it does in real life.
Philip Glass is the music that calms me.

I maintain America The Beautiful would be a better national anthem than a co-opted drinking song.
Better a drinking song than a hymn, which is where the tune of America the Beautiful comes from.
How could we give up The Star-Spangled Banner considering the story behind it? It was written by a man trapped on a British ship during the bombardment of Fort McHenry in a war that was the first great test of whether the new nation would survive. He spent the night desperately trying to determine whether the fort had fallen. He started the poem on a piece of paper in his pocket, before he was released by the British. It turned out to fit the music of a popular song about wine, women and song and sung in the streets within weeks.

New discovery: when my brain is all jittery and won't let me sleep, listening to Eminem make it calm down. I don't understand this.

When I'm in a crap mood and on the verge of losing my temper at the next asshole who crosses me and the subway is mad crowded I listen to LeATHERMOUTH and pretend its a mosh pit. It's incredibly soothing.
Totally agree, Ginger.

Yeah, but in my mind, Fozzie Bear is singing it.
Mine too, now.
Today's mantra, one of my favorites: I want things to be other than they are. Brought to you by the letters W,O,R, and K; B; and P, M, S.
By which I mean I'm doing all right, and just trying to plod through the day.
Yeah, but in my mind, Fozzie Bear is singing it.
Well, in that case we should make "Movin' right along" the national anthem.
Yeah, but in my mind, Fozzie Bear is singing it.
"A bear in his natural habitat. A Studebaker."
