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.

I don't quite understand the point of this law:

Arrests made as French face veil ban takes effect

PARIS — France's new ban on Islamic face veils was met with a burst of defiance Monday, as several women appeared veiled in front of Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral and two were detained for taking part in an unauthorized protest. A third was reportedly arrested in the city of Avignon.

France on Monday became the world's first country to ban the veils anywhere in public, from outdoor marketplaces to the sidewalks and boutiques of the Champs-Elysees.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy set the wheels in motion for the ban nearly two years ago, saying the veils imprison women and contradict this secular nation's values of dignity and equality. The ban enjoyed wide public support when it was approved by parliament last year.

I don't quite understand the point of this law:

Have you ever been to France? Because I think its pretty consistent with a French cultural presumption that The French Way Is The Right Way.

Maybe if they started wearing veils by Hermes.

Have you ever been to France?

Nope.

Because I think its pretty consistent with a French cultural presumption that The French Way Is The Right Way.

Yeah, I figured it was a French thing that I just don't understand.

I used to get ass dialed all the time, for one reason or another. Now, if Burrell doesn't do it, it doesn't happen.

I have an email in my inbox from a name really similar to twatt in my inbox. It's really distracting.

I'm noticing displays of $159 tickets for driving and texting. I need to look up and see what they cover under "texting". Because they can't mean just that.

There's a guy I went on one date with, who still ass-dials me occasionally. I don't understand why me! Also, I can never delete him from my phone now, because I would answer the call if I didn't realize it was him....

David just ass-dialed me right now. He doesn't realize it, but he's on the phone with me right now.

I have been under the impression that signing up for credit cards and then canceling them is bad for your credit score. Or signing up for, like, seventeen credit cards. I don't need more credit cards. I am happy with the one I use and the one I keep open just because it's old and I never use it. My dad claims that nothing bad will happen and I should be taking all these free miles because they're free, and I say nothing's for free. I guess he's been doing it for years and been fine, so I don't know.

To quote Dave Ramsey: "No one has ever gotten rich from frequent flyer miles."

Yeah, I figured it was a French thing that I just don't understand.

A lot of it has to do with the fact that many girls and women are abused by families and neighbors if they don't wear the veil, so many of these measures are to protect the women that don't want to wear the veil.

Also remember that, unlike the US, France has a strong tradition of assimilation. Or, as David said, the French way is the right way.

David just ass-dialed me right now. He doesn't realize it, but he's on the phone with me right now.

Yikes! I was.

That reminds me, I have, I suppose, extensive reward points with my credit card that I should use for...something. I should check that.

My father once accidentally sent a blank text to a guy I hooked up with. For a million reasons I hope he'd deleted my number from his phone.
