The Reader's Digest book is very useful. I am also a big proponent of asking old dudes at hardware stores.
I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
But you know, that's a mouthful, so it's easier to say, oh, I don't think of you as Japanese.
I don't think of you as Japanese. I think of you as a Cylon.

Lee,
I love the red one. LOVE it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My problem is that I'm the sort of person who, with a book, or say, the internet, believes she can do anything described therein. Which leads to things like my trash can still being filthy with laser toner because my googlefu allows me to find service manuals when I really shouldn't have them and the subsequent dismantling of laser printers turns out to be ever so slightly more complicated than it looked in the picture.
What can possibly go wrong in this situation?
(Is this why people cringe when I mention that my uncle-in-law loves me best and bought me a creme brûlée torch? I am very safe with it.)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I'm getting a jigsaw for my birthday. Nothing could possibly go wrong.
Also, bt, ha, shows what you know. I am both Japanese AND a Cylon.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I bought myself a jigsaw for my birthday an AIFG.
aurelia, you work at the Goodman? I suspect we know a lot of people in common. In news of the small world in which we live, an ex from my LJP days likes that photo.
edited to removed improper use of an apostrophe. Apologies to anyone who saw it and was grammatically scarred.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I do. The theatre world can seem very small at times.

Hah. Sometimes outsiders don't believe...I'm pretty sure anyone working at a regional theatre can chat with any other employee of a different regional theatre anywhere in the country an have at least one shared acquaintance.
Alright board mods, why is "Theatre" underlined in the wavy red lines of a misspelling?

That's a function of your operating system, not the board.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Lee, I love the red bag (#3) as well. Aside from the looks, the things that tipped me over to liking it were the detachable shoulder strap and the number/types of pockets inside.
