Tears, Dana.
Tears rolling down my face from teh laughter.
You owe me mascara.
Damn you, Bridget! Damn you to Hades! You broke my heart in a million pieces! You made me love you, and then you-- I SHAVED MY BEARD FOR YOU, DEVIL WOMAN!

I'm not too big of a fan of SA.
What's she ever done to you? Have you ever even *met* SA? She's a very nice Buffista and you are just rude!
Snerk.

What does it say about us as a society that we’re obviously completely obsessed with talking, evil-looking stuffed animals?
That Clovis' plans for world domination are coming along nicely?

Mmmmm, tasty foot. Apologies to SA for inadvertently conflating her with good ol' San Antonio.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
But during the Vietnam era, so close after WW II , and Korea, with China closed, and the cold war with the USSR, I'm not so sure that was the case, then.
A lot people at the time did not think Vietnam strategically important. The whole "Domino" theory was a rationalization for why it was worth fighting over an otherwise unimportant nation. Oh I'm sure the people who advanced it were sincere, but they also had all these theories about how to win wars with airpower, and minimal numbers of ground troops that they wanted to test.

Just to warn you in advance, there's a strip joint next door.
Well, if I have trouble paying for the room it's nice to know there are options...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've read that the Vietnam war wasn't so much about "communism taking over" as Vietnamese nationalism asserting itself, and as a result of our obsession with fighting communism we missed this fact.

Today's Unshelved comic strip (and, yes, it's the strip for Saturday, but they're a little behind).
edit: OK, it may just be amusing to library geeks.

OMG. That Fiddler/Avenue Q thing is hysterical. What's it from? (Judging by the ribbons, I'd guess some sort of AIDS benefit.)
