Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

See, that's how I always want my hair to be so cute when I cut it off and it never is...and then I realize it's because my face is not all elfin and bone-structurey like that and is more "my ancestors ate potatoes and gave me round cheeks and dimples". Sigh.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

We're south of I-40, of course, too, Kat, although probably more off your route than you'd like. We'd be happy to swing up and see you, or you're welcome to stay here as well.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

If you're driving through/by KC, Kat, let me know. You can totally crash here for a night if you need to, and get some excellent BBQ if you want. Kids bed, futon, upper twin bunk and a long, cushy couch. (Also, 4 cats)

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I could pretty much hit I-40 with a rock, if only my office's windows opened. I'm in the Chapel Hill, NC, area, if you end up out this-away, Kat.

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

Oil company owner's aggressive memos from late 1970s

I was with him until the "don't speak to me" bit. I'm even okay with the no office parties thing. I don't mind them, but I mind the way that they are often unevenly applied.

I don't think so. Dissents set no precedent, so Scalia and the rest of 'em are free to ignore it.

He'll look like a giant hypocrite, but what else is new?

Librarian Warlord

When it gets to the Supreme Ct you and I might have to hunt down Mr Justice Kennedy's clerks, Vortex. I shudder to think at the number of in part concurrences and dissents that could come out of this.

Buffistas are so smart that they've ruined everyone else for me.
