Wow, a true asshat. Damn.

Vortex, I think I'm gonna steal it and use it when the time comes. With your permission, of course.

Steal away! feel free to make it your own!

Our wings are not tired.

Make some Noise, Buffistas! Today we celebrate the birth of NoiseDesign. Just about anything would top the last year, but may the year to come be the best one ever.

Also, our busy living life Callaluna shares the birthday, who we miss, so I shall poke her elsewhere.

And it is Friday, at last, it has been a long week. I made a nail appointment for 3 this afternoon to cut the week short. Half or more of my doctors don't work on Friday so it is generally a quiet day.

It's Friday ... and ND's birthday! may it be a happy one!

Steph, at least be glad your neighbors didn't adopt this dog. Throwing a ball would be the least of his demands.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Happy birthday, Drew! Here, have a newly discovered pterosaur that looks like a porg.

Ha!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

From a way back:

One of my coworkers mentioned that Del Taco has surprisingly good burgers. For being a taco place, I guess. I don't think I can confirm that from my own experience, but I'll pass it along.

I've never had their burgers, but I've always found it weird that all but one of their combo meals includes fries. (I only ever bought the other one, with a quesadilla, [pre-lactose-intolerance] because I thought the whole "fries from a Mexican place" thing was odd).

And yes, Cindy, Naugles is pronounced to rhyme with "Boggles".

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DREW!!!!!
