RahRah, two things. First, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Second, you are so very, very young - I'll just be in the corner rocking back and forth (no, I have no chair), if you need me speak VERY LOUDLY, because I AM OLD.
Let us know when 'Ouise gets back, 'kay?
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Thanks for all the fish.

She used inductive reasoning and an Ad Hominem argument. And then she bit me!
Than... I mean THANKS ELENA! WOULD YOU LIKE A PILLOW?
'Ouise came back, safe and sound. The first plane was delayed a few hours, but she was able to make the connection. She'd probably say hi, but she's asleep right now.

Thanks for all the fish.
I'm glad she's back safe and sound. Nothing inspires confidence in air travel like 'mechanical deficits'. And what does that mean precisely.

Happy Belated Birthday to Old Rah Rah!
YAY for Ouise's safe return.
Best of luck to B. at the ENT. Please let me know what Dr. Tolkein says.
GO GUY! VIVE LES QUEBEC CURLERS! We're off to the 9am draw momentarily.

Dana: (standing in control room with clipboard) Momentarily does not mean "in a moment."Dave: (looking at monitor) There's two dissolving to three.
Dana: Thank you. It means "for a moment."
Jeremy: Yes.
Dana: That makes me crazy.
Jeremy: We've been wondering what the source was.
Dana: (smiles) Let's see a graphic for Seattle.
Chris: Coming.
Dana: It means "for a moment," not "in a moment."
Chris: Seattle's up.
Dana: On the plane when they say "We'll be landing momentarily," I call over a flight attendant, and I tell them, "If we land momentarily, it won't give the passengers enough time to get off the plane."
Jeremy: And once safely inside the airport, how long do they usually detain you for questioning?
Dana: Well, they know me by now.

I'm not criticising Megan's use of momentarily. Later in the episode they prove Dana wrong, it can be used as "for a moment" and "in a moment". Just every time I hear that word, I think of that scene.

Thanks for all the fish.
BWAH!
Dr. Tolkien is quite nice, actually. I think he looks like Luke Wilson. Brian disagrees, but what does he know, anyway? His brain is full of bone and diseased tissue. So now I can call him a bonehead with complete accuracy. Surgery is being scheduled. Booking for July, but there are lots of cancellations and Brian is on the list.

Uh, ?

Thanks for all the fish.
Uh, yeah? What? Did Brian not show you the pictures of his brain?
Also, are you free Friday night?

I emailed about Friday, and I saw no brain pictures. How much bone? (Looking for 'not too much'.) Brian's brain was always just a little diseased, though.
