Hivemind question for anyone that has been to Paris, or other French cities: When you were trying to get around, were any names or expressions completely mystifying to you? Something like "Hôtel de ville" meaning "City Hall" being not at all obvious? Anything you would have liked explained (besides the French themselves, that is)?
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'll know by March whether I'm going or not. If I don't have my ticket by then, I'll never get it. AA's photos are awesome!
I asked him this morning if the weekend was worth going to, and he gave me a HELL YES! about it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Other hivemind question.
Okay, no, actually, a billytea question: The county doesn't do snakes, so my dad would have to get a professional pest control person with reptile experience in, which obviously he wouldn't want to do unless it was absolutely, definitely rattlesnakes and not any kind of mimics. Is this phone camera picture even remotely identifiable?
Snaaaaaaaake! Snaaaaaaaake! It's a snake!

JZ, I'm getting a "content unavailable" message there--not sure if we're not FB friends, or what.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Me too.
I wanna see the snake!

Okay, one more longer one, and then maybe I will go do something useful with my vacation day.

SNAKE. (also fixed the linky up above)
Yep, that's a snake.
(Sorry - my snake knowledge is rather limited.)

Compassionately intolerant
Wow. That is a SNAKE. When I read 'baby-snake', that is not the image that popped into my mind.
Mad PROPS, JZ for keeping your cool.

Art Crawl!!!
Wow. Difficult to say - I mean, I googled and apparently gopher snakes use their resemblance to rattlers as a defense.
