Well, that and P-Cow putting on plays.
I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Man, I miss the comedy festival. The rest of my life (well, NBA All Star was interesting) just doesn't live up...

Happy birthday, sumi!
Congratulations, Nilly!
Sophia, I'm glad someone's helping out.
I'm in a post-office-potluck daze. So much good food! And my wild rice salad was totally cleaned out, which made me happy.

Wow, BP will have to pay more money for the oil spill than Disney did for LucasArts.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So I am at lunch at Walker Brothers Pancake House, and a woman at the table near mine says that every single prophet throughout the ages has predicted global warming.
Um, huh?

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

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
So I am at lunch at Walker Brothers Pancake House, and a woman at the table near mine says that every single prophet throughout the ages has predicted global warming.
Can you ask her to take it up with the deniers?

I have way too many personal safety issues to have hook-ups anymore.
I was listening to this at lunch [link] which seems that it would be of intereste to several people. The author was discussing how the term WASP was not only a descriptive word for a certain type of American, but certainly by the 30's, 40's had stopped being descrptively accurate and had morphed into describing what was considered the American ideal. He introduced the term MCWASP on the show as being more accurate = Middle Class White Assimilated Suburban Protestant.
