The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I like the mottled houdan.

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

Although I don't suppose I can make commentary on the idiocy of flies, when I just spent a half an hour watching a fly not get out a window.

Yeah, but did the fly post about it on an online message board?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I dunno, probably. I mean he's probably going to die in a few hours or so because it's really cold out there, although I don't know how much longer he was going to survive in here (he'd been in here three days) and I don't know what he was doing still alive anyway, so he's probably, like, some extreme sports fly and he's got a bunch of fans he's blogging to right now. And anyway, he really wanted out.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday shrift!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

He was blogging! He wrote, "I am just going outside bzzzzzzzz and I may bzzzzzzzz be some time."

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I remember when I had a job where you got an extra paid vacation day On Your Birthday. Sigh, probably not in my lifetime again....

Unborn C-Section Baby Grabs Doctor’s Finger From the Womb

I think the baby was trying desperately to bond with the doctor to keep from being named Heaven spelled backward.

Now I want to meet a kid named "Heaven-Spelled-Backward".

You know a discussion has gone off the rails where someone feels obliged to comment, "Richard there are many viable policies of intentional inflation that don't require genocide."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Something about the way the bassinets are in such straight lines, with all the babies facing the same way, is freaking me out a bit. I can't explain exactly why.

It looks like they'll all in the Matrix. It looks like a human factory, where top-quality humans are produced on a tight schedule.

I would not be a good mom. I watch my BFF deal with her obstinate daughter and I know I would just lose it if I had to listen to such whining and high-pitched screeching all the time.

I think the baby was trying desperately to bond with the doctor to keep from being named Heaven spelled backward.

Who started that trend? I remember it being a brand-new idea. Now there are probably a hundred girls in America named Nevaeh. I don't get it - when we played out records backwards, it was Satanic, but spelling heaven backwards is great?
