Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Strange -- I usually end up with pies.

What am I doing wrong?

Are you running Linux? That may be your problem.

Were you using a Mac? Because if you were, I think I know the source of the problem. APPARENTLY.

Oh crap, was I supposed to wash my dishes using a PC? Do I have to wash them all over again now?

Yes, and -- I know this will be hard to hear -- you have to use Windows ME.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

As an aside, does anyone have a couple million bucks I could um...borrow? I would let you come and visit me, I promise.

Oh no, Fred caught the Wannapie virus!

Our wings are not tired

I am so ruined by LA real estate that the price on the house looks like a complete bargain.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Same! Except Boston.

Does the cabin have plumbing? That seems like a real money-maker. Zoning and whatever permitting.

I am pleased to report that I am not as spoiled by San Diego prices. It wasn't until I saw the 10.1 acres that I went, "Oh, okay."

It's a total bargain, for people looking for $1M+ houses. The taxes are high but on par with the area. Maybe the pergola is haunted or something.

I always have a hard time with elsewhere real estate because it's never clear about location. Like, is it next to the dump? Way far out of town? Walking distance to all the hipster shops? Who knows!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yup, here too

msbelle, you get total props for how you handled mac. Isaac popped like that on Tuesday, and we went with Go to bed, hormone boy!

'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"

Evidently the cabin predates the house by like a lot -- check out the vintage picture of what looks like sorority girls working on their snowshoes.

Might I kvell just a little here? David Gerrold -- yeah, the Tribble guy -- wandered into my Facebook post. I don't want to embarrass him by fangirlling because I don't think he wants or needs that kind of reaction. But still, I have to squee somewhere.
