Ryan Reynolds married Blake Lively over the weekend. Why can't guys I think are dreamy marry chicks I think are dreamy? I haven't been ooh! nummy! about a celebrity marriage in forever.

Natter 70: Hookers and Blow
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Muppets with people eyes are weird. Miss Piggy should have had major eyelashes.
Soooo. I just took a job writing the police blotter for our newest, local, virtual newspaper. It pays next to nothing but it's more than the nothing I am making now.
Plus, I might convince the editor to adopt an Arcata Eye-like version if I am exceedingly adept.
I made a mistake scheduling something last Friday and the result was two meetings that over-lapped being booked on the same conference line. I am terrified that I am going to be fired.
Cash, sounds kind of cool.
Is that the sostinato pedal? Why I think I know this, I have no clue. Not a single piano lesson ever.
Barack Obama is tired of your shit.
Hear the President of the United States use gloriously NSFW language!
Our realtor just emailed asking if we'd managed to get the water turned on (yes), and if there were any other problems with the house. Ha.
I Am The Very Model of an Amateur Grammarian - Neatorama
Tom Freeman of The Stroppy Editor took the Major-General's Song from the Pirates of Penzance by Gilbert and Sullivan and adapted it to suit the modern swashbuckling world of grammar nazism:
I am the very model of an amateur grammarian
I have a little knowledge and I am authoritarian
But I make no apology for being doctrinarian
We must not plummet to the verbal depths of the barbarian
I’d sooner break my heart in two than sunder an infinitive
And I’d disown my closest family within a minute if
They dared to place a preposition at a sentence terminus
Or sully the Queen’s English with neologisms verminous
I know that ‘soon’ and not ‘right now’ is the true sense of ‘presently’
I’m happy to correct you and I do it oh so pleasantly
I’m not a grammar Nazi; I’m just a linguistic Aryan
I am the very model of an amateur grammarian
Go, Cash. My friend(who's Lisah's friend...cyber-smalltimore moment!) sometimes puts up three things "from the blotter" and we have to guess which he made up...the real ones are the weirdest.

Heh. A friend posted that on my FB wall the other day.
