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

Thanks, Maria!

Our wings are not tired.

On the ads last night, I personally liked the Washington Post one the best. I was surprised this morning that the Andy Warhol one was really him. I didn't watch closely and just assumed it was an imposter.

The favorite comments from my sons during last night's game. (no doubt taken from social media)

"My friends that went downtown tonight scored more than these teams."

"Both sides are playing like the winner goes to visit the White House."

I think sometimes you just get pre-check randomly,

Yes, it is a marketing tool. They want to get you hooked!

It's also possible for those of us who have paid for preCheck to be subject to a random regular old screening, which has happened to me only once (but I almost missed the flight because I'd counted on not having to stand in the regular line).

The Gods giveth and taketh!

Last weekend our 20 year old Subaru died in WVa while we were skiing. Fortunately, it was a 3-day weekend for the local school, which meant we were able to contact 3 neighbors who were also there, divide up our stuff into three cars, and our family into two, and everything came home but the car. Now we are used car shopping, and I hate it. One sales person said, "well, that's a manual and the wife..." Whereupon I cut in and said to my husband, "We're leaving." And we did.

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

I waited too long to get lunch, now I'm hungry and cranky and I can't decide what I want.

Burrito! Or my default, halal cart.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I did get a burrito.

Wow! I think DH would have burst out laughing if someone said that, on his way out the door of course. Also, sympathies, car shopping is the worst.

Oh, no, apparently I can hit Enter and just bypass the super scary message?
