Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Bradley Cooper's cute, but his nose is kind of crooked(Yes, I know that's ironic.) He's not really my type, although his good French is very sexy and he made a total fool of himself on that kitchen show and I think that's awesome. Amych, indeed. No beat-up orange couches at IKEA, though that would make me LOL...they could call it "distressed"(who isn't, yo?! look around.)

I need the hivemind! What font would you say the word "BOUCHERIE" is in at the top of this page? [link]

I am trying to match it for a silent auction sign tonight but I suck at fonty goodness.

Alternatively, can someone capture that logo in a file? I can't because it's all Flash-y.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Nora, on a quick review, if you used Letter Gothic, set super bold and spaced out, it would be really close.

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

OK, I think my brain is permanently warped. Where does your mind go when you see this headline?

Boeing Delivers Massive Ordnance Penetrator

Is that a massive ordnance penetrator in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

brillig

The combination of "massive" and "penetrator" should make any PR person pause a moment--at least to giggle like a 12-year-old before trying to compose a headline.

My Editing instructor, a generally sour Norwegian old guy always told us you could never be too careful about junk like that. He used to scare me, actually, as the lovechild of Snape and Lou Grant probably ought to, but he had some funny stories about bad headlines from his other college where the mascot was The Beavers...just volleyball was a goldmine.

Ugh, Tom, I'm sorry.

Pete worries about Mt. Rainier.

Which is irrational, because you don't live in Tacoma/Puyallup. The danger from Rainier is mud flows.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Ah, the Salon Sexy Men list -- what a nice thing to wake up to!!

Hmm. I may actually play around with an article or two on disasters. Thanks for the feedback, y'all.

That letter to the S&S publisher...ach. I'm sure there's some truth to the fixes he mentions, but...just, oh, dear.
