Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Our wings are not tired.

A compilation of videos of people behaving very badly at work:

One of my prima donna doctors physically took the computer, monitor, etc and threw it into the office manager's office and told her he wanted nothing to do with it. DH brought him around. He is magical that way.

Shocking new school lice policies

Wow, I wish this was the case when the boys were in school. I was pretty much spared it, but I know a lot of parents that suffered often.

And my sister looks down on me for failing to keep my kids lice-free.

Total bullshit! It seems just luck. Like some people are irresistible to mosquitoes (like me) and other are never bothered. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

It's really windy here, too.

And here! Apparently far and wide wind event.

He jokingly said "just wait to start dancing until I am actually gone."

Twirls msbelle around the room.

Frank, so much coping~ma for your friend. That is a horrible way to get that kind of news.

I had gone to the grocery store salad bar and purchased a container of wild mushroom soup and made a lovely salad. Then when I got back to the office a friend visiting from PA had shown up and we went to lunch next door and I had Pad Thai. I haven't seen Dan in 25 years or so and it was super nice. Reconnected from Facebook. Many bad things to say about Facebook, but reconnecting with old friends and family is a real positive. I tossed the grocery store lunch in the fridge for tomorrow. I'll catch up with Dan again on my trip north because Allentown is easily along the route. So nice to see him.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

But if they're not that contagious, how come my kids keep getting them?

Coat rack? If the coats are all mashed together?

Always Anti-fascist!

I've never had it...my mother credits her hair obsession, but I didn't get in big classes till the upper grades.

I never had it either, and I don't remember any outbreaks at my schools.

The crabs outbreak in college was amusing, for the uncomfortable talk that took place in the dorm TV room.

Because books.

Allentown is not far from me, either!

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

Timelies all!

Posting from Jammin Java, where we will see Garnet Rogers and Archie Fisher in concert soon.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I know it's just part of the tech industry, but I am really growing to hate the phrase "Ability to deal with ambiguity and change within a fast-paced environment" in job listings.

True! And a whole lot more convenient to get to than Fulton, just sayin'.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I can't be the only one with a Billy Joel earworm.

Y'all. I left work on time today! So happy.

Not to mention, much more pleasant.

Well, NOW I have one.
