But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

Punishingly Intricate

I love that NYTimes weekly feature that shows what $X will buy you housing wise in 3 different markets. Fascinating!

I feel like I should look in to buying a house, as a modest house is actually less than my rent. But, then I would have to mow the lawn!

Pay a kid to do it! Would you be able to buy someplace that would make your commute more reasonable?

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

Bookcase in a stairwell that you access via bosun's chair

Sallie Trout stuck a bookcase into a narrow stairwell, contriving an ingenious access method via a bosun's chair with a chain hoist.

I second lisah!

In fact, it's time for me to call the Friendly Neighborhood Teenager. The grass exploded over the weekend.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Wow, you guys, it looks like the marriage equality issue in New York is going to be voted on today (well, probably tonight -- it's apparently the last item on the agenda), and there are allegedly enough votes to pass it.

Or the Friendly Neighborhood Handy Old Guy like the one who used to mow my patch o' land.

Mulch and groundcovers.

I hope no one has a connection through Atlanta. There's a huge fire at an industrial plant near the airport that makes high-tech plastic products. There's a hold on at the airport, and they're evacuating a two-mile radius.

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

Apparently, this amount of money would purchase a cardboard box in SF. A small one.

That amount of money probably wouldn't even cover a remodel. Which explains why we haven't yet remodeled.

and there are allegedly enough votes to pass it.

That would ROCK!

Our wings are not tired.

Burrell, I just tried to "like" your post. Man, Facebook has forever changed my habits.
