You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

The other question is when did you first here Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah" as part of mood music as opposed to as part of a CD you were listening to?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Past 7, no sign of the CL people. I have a table in my garage, I haven't eaten dinner yet, and I'm irritated.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Right after 9/11, VH-1 put together a video with that song over footage of the wreckage and rescue workers and stuff, and it was part of a set of maybe 20 or so "uplifting" videos that they played pretty much constantly for a few days. It seemed like the use in other TV shows and movies really jumped after that.

Pretty sure it was ER.

My cats continue to be helpful. Pumpkin emptied a pot of water all over the stove and floor. It needed cleaning anyway?

Because books.

Outing myself as not a huge Cohen fan, because I honestly think it was Shrek.

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

Random question: When was the last time you used a phone book to look up a person's number? (i.e not a business, and a real dead-tree phone book.)

I honestly can't remember. 10 years? 15?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

A person? Can't even remember. A business more recently but I complained that a business was actually unfindable on the internet.

Past 7, no sign of the CL people. I have a table in my garage, I haven't eaten dinner yet, and I'm irritated.

Unless you are charging an amount that makes it worthwhile, forget them.

A person? I have no idea. We do still get phone books delivered , though, which honestly irritates me.

Yes, we left them a message saying "Uh, never mind on that," and called the next person on the list. Who didn't pick up the phone.
