I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me want to have sex.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just scanned through all the Whites, and nothing, sorry.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Thanks! Her not running was a distinct possiblity!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

It's so creepy looking at the photos/video -- that's three blocks from where I used to live.

We were just in that area last weekend, and like Connie, my dad used to work very close by as well. I know that part of Boston so well. It's just horrifying to think about.

It's stupid how the pictures bring it home. I mean, I know where I used to live, but then -- there's my old Crate and Barrel on CNN!

Jon, just checked in. He and his are fine, thank goodness.

Guh. Patton Oswalt got me all choked up.

sj, thanks for letting us know. I'm very glad to hear it!

I'm at the point where I've heard from just about everyone who would conceivably have been there or nearby, and am resisting emailing all of my friends who live 2 hours away from the city. But, damn, I just wanna wrap everyone up in a giant hug and keep them safe forever.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

God. You're so physically hammered immediately after a marathon, and they're donating blood? They are good folks.
