My cat got her teeth cleaned today. She'll be sleeping tonight after I get her back from the vet on my way home, after she eats dinner, that is. She was pissed that I took away her food last night, and I had to close her out of the bedroom, otherwise she would have kept me awake all night long with her bitching about it right in my ear.
It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Can anyone think a movie where someone was a beatnik, or an actual beatnik?
Responding to my ringing ears...There are a bunch of beatnik exploitation movies. (And here we'll distinguish between actual Beats and the caricature of them which is the beatnik.)
View the Beatsville gallery for illustrations.
Movies: The Beat Generation; High School Confidential (two beatniks, one being a gal Phillipa Fallon, the other being Drew Barrymore's dad); the Corman b-movie Bucket of Blood; The Bloody Brood (with Peter Falk!);
Here's a list of Beatnik movies.

Someone on my street mostly likes me. When I arroved home, my part of the sidewalk was cleared, except for the last 8 feet. I don't know if they ran out of gas or thought the plow who does my neighbor's driveway would get the rest.

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
I really have NO CLUE. Most years, we get them something big--like a nice gas grill or deck furniture. But this year, they don't need anything and they don't have hobbies per se. Why did I wait until the last minute?
Oooh! Get them a _____ of the month. Fruit or flowers or maybe meat. I've always wanted one of those.
