Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

And the marine corps marathon too, no? Isn't that why the rally has no portapotties?

The rally does have portapotties, but separate ones from the marathon. Usually, if there are two events on the Mall on the same weekend, the two events will split the cost of the portapotties and rent them for the whole weekend. This time, the Marine Corps Marathon people said no to that -- they're renting their own portapotties, and they're going to put locks on them on Saturday so that the rally people can't use them. So the rally people are also renting portapotties.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Marines don't like sanity, apparently.

So the other day I saw a woman wearing a pair of nice dress boots. They were black leather that went up just below the knees - and they had open toes. You could see about three toes on each foot, as the opening was fairly small.

Cool? Weird? An abomination unto footwear?

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

I'm going with "abomination unto footwear".

I should have taken a photo. But then again, it might sound rude if I say, "Can I take a photo of your boots so my invisible internet friends can discuss and possibly make fun of them?"

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Answers b) and c), and sadly not uncommon around here. I find them horrific.

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

They're in style now, those Open toe boots. UGLY and wrong like a wrong thing.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

huh, I have yet to see open toed boots, but they don't sound like my thing.

My head feels loopy. I think I need a cup of coffee if I am going to get any more grading done today. And I need to get grading done.

I am making rose hip oil at the behest of my husband, who harvested them off the rose bushes. I am not sure what he plans on doing with it, but I like the idea of making soap with it.
