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

I don't believe him.

Because he spelled 'weird' wrong.

Now tagless for your comfort.

$1500 for shipping? Wow! I would think that it would be cheaper to fly it there yourself. Book a commercial flight, carry on the package and then fly back. All while taking advantage of the duty-free liquor.

I hope the stress of this goes away, brenda.

Not really any new info, though.

eta: The comments seem split between attacking and defending her.

Related to nothing, I don't like Larry Summers.

also related to nothing, I just used the phrase "Straight up Belgian Gangsta" and it is still making me laugh.

Because books.

Who's Larry Summers? I'm guessing he's *not* a straight-up Belgian gansta?

The Franciscans Come To The Nuns' Rescue - The Dish | By Andrew Sullivan - The Daily Beast

This is becoming a major revolt against the Vatican's attempt to police and control the nuns who don't adhere to Benedict's diktats. It's strongly worded and its message is clear: the Vatican's intrusion is "excessive". Here's the full text released yesterday morning. It is, as James Martin puts it, "fathers and brothers coming to the defense of their sisters. " It's a nuanced and respectful defense of core Catholicism, asserting that the current Vatican's insistence on total control over all issues, even those where there can and should be "courageous discernment", is actually against Catholic teaching, as expressed in the Second Vatican Council. And it gives me hope:

Is it the Larry Summers who was Secretary of the Treasury under Clinton and an economic adviser for Obama? I'm pretty sure he isn't Belgian, though maybe he likes waffles.

The Franciscans Come To The Nuns' Rescue

God, I love the Franciscans. I interned for them one summer, at their magazine, and they are the most awesome, hippie-dippie, feed-the-people, work-for-justice friars EVER.

That is the Larry Summers and no, not Belgian in any way.

The two items were unrelated.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If anyone's looking at goodstuff right now and wondering "The fuck?"--yeah, I did it. Bite me.

My god, I'm parched this morning. I'm chugging the tea like my life depends on it. Luckily I got 2 of my magic muffins this morning--I've decided I'll just buy all their stock of a morning, and lord it tastes good with the jasmine green tea.

Mnnrrf.

I did look at the actor's FB page where he denies the whole think and calls the model a whore-for-pageviews, and you know what? I don't really care. But I totally would be more likely to be on her side than his, because I've met more actors than models. Uh, no offense, Colin.

They cancelled this morning's 7:30 meeting before I left for work, but I was already pointing this way, so I came in early anyway. Amazing how little work that translated into.
