On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I sometimes wonder if he'd be doing less damage as VP than as a Senator.

Fair point.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Bitchass -- I just went to set up this printer I have that I've never used, but I forgot I need a stupid cable! Bah.

hip deep in pie

Dana, I have eczema prone skin and I am itchy all the time in winter. Moisturize like a nut, avoid too hot water in baths and showers, and my nutritionist friend says that fatty acid supplements could help.

I may or may not be bleeding right now from scratching.

I had to pull new guy out of an ad hoc meeting because he was missing a meeting he scheduled, again. Hmmph.

Husband escapes endless cake nightmare

A husband in China has left his wife after she forced him to eat cake for every meal.

Cheng Yu said he was happy with the sugary treats at first but now just mentioning the word cake made him ill.

'Egg cake, fruit cake, chocolate cake. I felt like a bakery dustbin,' he said.

The 31-year-old from Beijing has threatened to divorce Tian Mae, 27, if she doesn't stop baking.
