Did everyone everywhere insert "hey motherfucker get laid, get fucked" into "Mony, Mony"? One retro bar where we hung out that did performances to songs (Colin worked there and performed--it was cute) put something like "get laid get AIDS" in there instead.

I finally understand why Mony Mony was banned from school dances! I could never find anything dirty in the words. 20+ year old mystery solved.

I went to a wedding once where they inserted "Stay home...read books!" Awkward intellectuals. No shock, I'm sure.

David, it is in the middle of the top of his foot, so no toenail involvement. He did not have a wound here previously - according to him, so who knows. I'm just not sure if it is doc-worthy, ya know? I hate being the overprotective mom.

If it disappears tomorrow and then reappears as a bunch of little bumps in a circle, it's ringworm.

Could it just be irritated from the bump rubbing against his shoe, Suzi? Does it feel warm?

Which means up at 6 at the absolute latest.

*shudder*

I'd be tempted to chicken out and deliver it in the early evening, except I'm going to have to rent a car while mine's in the shop, so I want to give them as many full days to work on it as possible. I'm an insomniac, but the idea of being up that early on purpose still offends me.

Ya know, he did just get some new shoes a week or so ago. High Top Chucks. Hmmmmmm. Will see how it looks tomorrow.

Curious Pop Music Trivia: No less than three Tommy James covers went to #1 that year. "Mony Mony" by Billy Idol and "I Think We're Alone Now" by Tiffani and "Crimson and Clover" by Joan Jett.

Try having him soak it in epsom salts.

Wow. I just went *off* on a high school mate (who was in drama with me and was one of the few white guys in my high school).

He posted this some stupid ass Facebook status and followed it in his comments with this:

As for our freedom, the protections afforded by the US Constitution were probably first violated/ignored by Lincoln during the Civil War. Then FDR during the depression, with the help of the Supreme Court, really got the wheels in motion for the Marxism we're seeing in government today.

Me:

I grew up in Public Housing and am thankful it existed. Social Security is the reason a lot of elderly people have something to eat and money to (barely) pay their rent and heat during winter. We're not anywhere close to "Marxism", Brian, do you even know what that term means? Obama is, if anything, a moderate.

Are you a "libertarian"? I wish so much that when a libertarian got mugged, the police would say, "take care of yourself, it's all on you" and when a libertarian's house caught on fire, the firefighters would let it burn down, because a true libertarian would take care of everything himself.

I know someone who fell out of a swing when she was 5, and suffered a back injury and as an adult has had to struggle to find anyone who'd insure her (she's very healthy now) because of the "pre-existing" condition. And that's okay with you? Do you listen to anything but Glenn Beck and Fox news? Sorry to go off, but I've been watching your incredibly misinfomed status remarks for too many months now and I am pissed off that you're spreading such vomit.

And just in case you just assume I'm some Obama-nut who worships at Keith Olbermann's feet and is just being contentious: I get my news from many sources, including The Economist, The National Review, Atlantic, New York Times, WSJ, you name it. I form my own opinions, I don't listen to the hatemongers and just repeat everything they say.

And one more thing? I am in the __% tax bracket (despite the public housing upbringing that you so deride) and I will never, ever complain that my taxes go to help those less fortunate.
