I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

What is the deal with the UP and pasties?
Cornish tin miners were brought in to work the UP copper mines. They brought their pasties with them, and other immigrant groups in the mines, such as the Finns, adopted the meal.
Why, are you in the UP? Is it snowing yet? (I kid, I kid. They won't see snow up there for a couple of weeks.)

Because books.
I found the other one, msbelle! The day after I sent the package, of course. So that's coming, too. Just ... in a few days.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
msbelle, if I lived in TX I'd be wearing white as well. I'd be interested in reflecting as much sunlight away from me as possible.
Yeah. Today I'm wearing a white gauzy piratey shirt. It's too hot to have my arms exposed. The bus stop is going to be murder.

Our wings are not tired.
I just saw a Tide commercial with the narrative being a mom lying to her teenage daughter. REALLY?
Oh, the one where the mother "borrows" her daughter's t-shirt to go out clubbing, and spills something on it? Yeah, one time seeing that one, and I wanted to write to Tide. But I didn't. Lately, everything about the world and its inhabitants has been depressing the hell out of me. Tide is the least of it. I need to write a letter to the people who write the commercials for the human race.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
I have managed, through the miracle of TiVo, to remain almost completely clueless about commercials for the past few years. Now I only see them before trailers at the movies, and they get on my nerves.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yay! I've wanted a shirt with this on it since I lived in San Francisco - it's the text of a sign they post by the front of MUNI trains where the conductor sits, and says:
