When I was working at my dad's office one summer, I came across a medical report that said something like, "Patient suffered cardiac arrest and sudden death. This was particularly serious considering patient's prior history of sudden death."
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

brillig
so she had to get a GED.
A friend of ours stopped going to high school so she could get started on several masters degrees in advanced mathematics. She finally got her GED the day before her doctoral defense. She has the two hanging next to each other and smiles when people realizes the dates are so close.
Edit: she also had to get a special dispensation to be on her own doctoral defense committee, because they needed three qualified people, and the last qualified person who understood what she was working on was in Soviet Russia and the subject was potentially classified.

....didn't mean to kill the thread.
Sorry. I got sucked into Shatner as a result.
(It is hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that Shatner and Nimoy are the same age. Also, that Shatner is OLDER than Leonard Cohen. I do find myself wondering if they were ever in the same circles in 1950s Montreal, though. I mean, he's only 2 years older than COHEN.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's a very odd thought, Plei.
Not for you to have, I mean, but to be in my brain.

I was going to say that, if they both went to Jewish school, then they probably went to the same one, since Montreal really only has one Jewish school, but wikipedia tells me that Cohen went there, but Shatner did not. (It's actually a pretty interesting school. In addition to English as the language of instruction and Hebrew language in religion classes, they also require that all students take French and Yiddish.)
t edit: I was wrong. The Montreal Jewish school that teaches Yiddish isn't the same one that Cohen attended.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ple, you should follow the Fug Girls SWINTON! strategy and just refer to him as COHEN!
P-Cow, your voice post sounds like Steven Hawking. You poor little critter. I'm glad you didn't have any irreversible death trips.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
three of us Kathys in a row, each one spelling our name differently!
And you spell it the Right and Proper Way.
Interestingly, my freshman dorm also had 3 Kathys on my floor. Unfortunately, we all spelled ours the same way. And, all of us were from Colorado (the uni was in OK), so you couldn't even say, "Kathy from Colorado." We ended up solving it by all going by our full names: Kathleen, Kathryn, and Kathy.
