The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yeah, I'll be tossing my vermouth when I get home.

The Buffista sprogs are going to have some very large vocabularies of both the erudite and "swears-like-a-sailor" variety.

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 was thinking that we should just give up on the "don't let kids learn swear words" thing. Fuck it. Just let 'em swear.

Except then they'd probably swear wrong, and we'd then have to teach them to swear correctly.

The Cabo Wabo was surprisingly good! My father-in-law is a tequila genius!

I was thinking that we should just give up on the "don't let kids learn swear words" thing. Fuck it. Just let 'em swear.

My rule is simply that it's socially inappropriate for younger people to swear in front of older people.

Emmett can swear all he wants among his peer group.

Matilda too, for that matter, though it might not play in preschool to call the kid who took your playdough a cocksucker.

Also, vermouth should be refrigerated unless being used quickly.

Huh.

Dry vermouth is also nice to have around as a substitute for white wine in cooking those times when you really don't want to open a bottle.

cheap vodka. I'm thinking I need to get some Grey Goose

If you're using it for anything other than on the rocks or martinis/gimlets, I don't think there's no reason to buy expensive vodka. I have grey goose at my house because I drink gimlets, but smirnoff or summat is fine for tonics, screwdrivers, etc. Of course, my friend swears he can taste the difference in a tonic, but to each his own.

Yeah, I'll be tossing my vermouth when I get home.

Given that no one I know in France refrigerates vermouth, and there it is mostly drunk straight, I'm going to go with this is unnecessary.

Is This "The Greatest Moment in Women's Sport" ?

Kelly Kulick is a 33-year-old professional bowler who won the Professional Bowler’s Association Women’s World Championship. A new PBA rule allowed her to qualify for the men’s tournaments. She entered arguably the most prestigious event – the Tournament of Champions – and beat 62 of the best male bowlers, defeating the world’s #1 ranked bowler in the final match 265-195.

When Billy Jean King beat a mediocre Bobby Riggs, the world press covered the event. Auto racing’s Danica Patrick and golf’s Michelle Wie are household names. In a column at ESPN The Magazine, sportswriter Rick Reilly asks why Kelly Kulick’s accomplishment is not receiving more publicity.

"When the light turned green. The driver didn't go. You didn't say fuckwad."

That's hilarious.

The other day when Leif came home from school the first thing he said was, "Do you want to know what inappropriate thing Parker did today?"

His pal Parker is a bit of a troublemaker.
