It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What does that even mean? Put the kindling and stuff on top??? My Girl Scout mother would NEVER.

I wonder who has to go to prison for anything bad to happen to DJT.

I think the spin will be that nothing in either of these cases has implicated collusion with Russia and therefore doesn't matter.

Ken Starr was investigating the Whitewater real estate deal.

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

What does that even mean? Put the kindling and stuff on top??? My Girl Scout mother would NEVER.

Yes, and I know, but it really does work! Like really really well!

Amazing.

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

What? How? I am bewildered and confused by this "top down fire". I don't think I'm ready for it. That is not how Uncle Walter taught my dad to build fires with twigs. That is not how we readied coals in the hibachi. Pretty sure that's not how that guy built a fire in the very depressing Jack London story.

Give me some time to come to grips with the possibility and then tell me all about it.

Our wings are not tired.

I am intrigued. My bonfire pit has a bunch of stuff I would rather not have to clear out to kindle below.

I love Buffistas. Political discussion and how to build a fire.

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

Far be it from me to suggest there are natural synergies between the two...

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

My big revelation today was learning the wonders of a top-down fire.

Aim the hairspray flamethrower at the top of the tent caterpillar nest, and burn your way down.

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

Atropa no

we have matches

Top-down is how I always built a fire until someone taught me the right way. Whatever, it worked. I got fire and warm beenie-weenies.

Oh! On Rachel Maddow's show, Cohen's lawyer said Cohen basically knows all the things 'bout collusion and hacking and would be happy to talk to the Special Counsel.

Cohen waited for a pardon that didn't come and he is feeling betrayed, O Orange One.
