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 hope you feel better soon, ita.

ION, Paul the Octopus 'to record Elvis tribute album'

The article fails to address the obvious question, which is, "How?"

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, ita. I am so sorry. I can't even imagine.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Dear god, you have to count and multiply while drunk?! I would not survive the game.

That would be the point. I suck at these things while sober, so I was quickly a mess.

My favorite drinking game was Viking, no contest.

Please to explain!

Unfortunately, she a very good friend of an alumni family so I don't think we can shut her out.

I would make sure that the alumni family is kept informed of her bullshit. If you have to shut her out, it won’t come as a surprise. Of course, since she’s this craxy, they might already know.

I never played drinking games, so that might explain the dearth of my knowledge. Any drinking in groups I did was at radio station parties in college, and all the interest was in who was screwing whom and station/department politics.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh ita, I wish your brain would give you a break. Not since Homer threatened to stab his own brain with a Q-tip have I seen somebody so at odds with their cerebrum.

Now I'm at work, and all I can think about is why wasn't Sugar Pie DeSanto in the movie Cadillac Records?

Good fucking question! She's totally awesome. She still performs live around SF occasionally, or at least she did a few years back and JZ and I saw her. In her prime she opened for James Brown and did backflips on stage. I've got a fair amount of her music if you want me to post some.

Okay, so, everyone stands or sits in a circle. One person puts their hands up to simulate viking horns and starts to sing a song, any song. The person to her right "rows" on the right and vice versa for the person on her left. At any point the Viking points to someone else, who immediately has to make horns and sing a different song, and the people on either side row.

If anyone forgets to row, rows on the wrong side, doesn't make horns, can't think of a song, or sings a song previously sung, the whole "boat" drinks.

I just searched online, and found instructions for Viking but none mention singing! Which I think is a key element. It introduces an element of timing uncertainty, and having to think of songs, and such.

Oh, Sara would love that game. Without the drinking, though.

So I read this headline:

And my first thought was, "Why is she talking like Yoda?"

Yeah, like I said, I played it with about 50 Moldovan girls using water bottles and they had a blast. My time in rugby came surprisingly in handy in Peace Corps.
