What was evolution thinking?
I think its time we consider a third option: Unintelligent Design
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Steph, tell him about the fitted sheet I paid $320 for if you want to see his head implode.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm busting my ass over here, trying to get this thing done today. So I closed my door and turned on the cheesy music. Now, people don't close their doors here. So what happens? First my boss knocks to try to get me to eat half of her sandwich that she doesn't want. Then? Her assistant, with a letter she got in the mail that she doesn't know how to handle. Does it have anything to do with my job? No. Is it urgent? NO.
Christ, people, leave me alone!!

Matt - I want to hear about your sheet. Cloth of Gold?
Jesse - put a sign on your door saying "Please do not disturb unless it's urgent. I'm concentrating!!!1!" You may or may not choose to add "Dammit," depending on your workplace.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Don't people have to work, or take personal phone calls, or just do long conference calls or anything? I don't understand not being able to close a door if you have one!

I seriously thought just closing the door did a sufficient job of implying that. She did ask if I was on the phone, because that's the most common time people do close their doors around here, but when I said no, I thought that meant that what she had was urgent!!11!
Back to the salt mines.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. There's a branch of my bank located inside a grocery store a block away from where I work. Apparently it was just robbed. My boss is thinking they probably have very little cash on hand (whenever he tries to withdraw money from them they walk him over to the ATM) so maybe it wasn't the best thought out robbery attempt.

Dad is planning to also buy a new mattress/box spring set (his current one is older than his sheets, seriously), and I get the feeling that he's going to expect to pay less than $320 for the whole dealie. He's going to be in for a shock.

Crimson rayon faux silk, with a weave that I'd estimate at about 800 thread count. It was my Christmas present to myself after the Project from Hell in 2003.
