Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Happy birthday, O!

You know, "Amy, President of Hell" would make a good album title.

Art Crawl!!!

You know, "Amy, President of Hell" would make a good album title.

Or a nameplate for her desk or office door. Well, for any Amy's desk or office door.

And check out the fashions at Aintree (Grand National

Don't feel a failure because you don't want to spend all your time and energy hustling the frequent flyer miles system, P-C.

Or, make them watch Punch Drunk Love and accuse them of failing to exploit the pudding pack angle.

Also, I'm sorry my phone keeps ass-dialing you. It likes you best.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Way in Which I Have Been Made to Feel Like a Failure by My Parents #402: I have not been signing up for every free airline miles credit card under the sun to get the 20,000 free miles and then canceling the card later.

At this point, I think they're looking for stuff to grumble about. I mean, really? Airline miles credit cards? They need a better hobby.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Also, I'm sorry my phone keeps ass-dialing you. It likes you best.

It called me twice at two in the morning in the UK. It even left nasty voicemails.

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

I was ass-dialed by you a couple weeks ago! I feel so included.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Note that I'm sure the credit card companies would LOVE to keep the "cancelling is bad for your credit" meme going. Not that it isn't necessarily true, but it certainly benefits them.

Punishingly Intricate

Man, I ate too many grilled cheeses yesterday! I need to find another area of expertise.

That's actually the 2nd time Bob's been in the Sun since we've known each other. The first time he didn't even live here yet. He's still in awe of how small Bmore is sometimes.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

1) We had bad storms last night, which meant we lost power. Which meant no alarm clock. Which meant 1 hr late to work.

2) I have something in my left eye. I stupidly put on mascara (see running late). Now I feel like I have 1 raccoon eye.

3) My sister is getting married on Saturday!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It even left nasty voicemails.

Because you won't call back! I told you it like you.

I was ass-dialed by you a couple weeks ago! I feel so included.

You're very special to my ass.

However, I should have a new Blackberry holster soon so the ass-dialing era will (I hope) come to an end. (Get it?!)

Now I feel like I have 1 raccoon eye.

Tell them it's a Clockwork Orange promotion.
