Aw Frank, I'm sorry. Please take it easy on yourself. If you'd had an 'on purpose', I'd think you could do with some beating up, but they're called 'accidents' for a reason.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Unless they were printed in Turkey?
Jilli got her copy, too. Clovis has secret importing ties with Turkey?
The "blind spots" thing reminded me of a game that I saw played in an online Israel movie site once: each person tried to name the movie that he thought everybody else had seen, but he hadn't. IIRC, somebody won with "Fight Club" (which I haven't seen, as well, speaking of blind spots). Oh, and there wasn't anybody who didn't see "The Princess Bride".
[Edited because even though there may be a movie called "The Princess Bribe" in which Inigo says "prepare to buy", I doubt its popularity around here.]

Also, the horrible skipper wonders about your job search
Um, you skipped something all right, because I'm not on a job search. I've been working where I've been working for 13 years, and no plans to be looking anytime soon.
Thanks for telling me what I should know already, everyone. Sometimes it's nice to hear these things outside of my own head (and from people I won't mock for saying them, unlike, say, myself).

Sorry, I didn't phrase myself properly - I was trying to ask Theo.

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'm pretty hot for these quote-unquote bookends, made of concrete with a synthetic rubber cover.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

but he might want a shiny new bumper out of this, which would cost me money and raise my rates.
I wouldn't worry too much about it Frank. I did $5000 worth of damage to my car in February and the premiums settled to about $6 a month more than I'd been paying previously. (And actually went down the first couple of months before they figured out that I shouldn't be getting the "no accidents" discount.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The top singles from this week in 1989:
That was awesome. I wish I could have played the songs, since I couldn't think of #10 or #1, but I was super excited to read the bit about Every Little Step.
I think I need to go get lunch. This is what happens when I have breakfast an hour early.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
The top singles from this week in 1989:
That reminds me. The girls and I went to see The Dresden Dolls, Debbie Harry, Erasure and Cindy Lauper on Saturday. It was an HRC benefit and really cool. Rosie O'Donell and Margaret Cho were there too.
At the end, everybody got onstage to sing ABBA, and then came back for an encore with Cindy on True Colors.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
As long as we're talking about music here, I saw Music & Lyrics last night: oh god, so ridic. You don't have to see it if you can imagine Andrew Ridgely meeting Drew Barrymore-- but improvised! If I blew on that thing too hard it would fly apart.
