Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

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

OK, new tropical storm forming off Africa. Name is Igor. Such a name brimming with good omens.

If NC has to get hit with a hurricane this year, I hope it's named "Igor." Hurricane Fran caused problems, but the name suggested sassy waitress more than 37 deaths and millions of dollars worth of damage.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Dude, I just found my department $5000+/month of money they had not gotten re-imbursed for since January. That more than covers their costs for keeping me on as a consultant.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Well dang, has everybody's kids returned to school except for mine?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Well dang, has everybody's kids returned to school except for mine?

I'm in my 3rd week. My nieces/nephews are already in their 5th week of school.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

L'shana tovah! [link] And a sweet, healthy, and peaceful year to everyone, whenever you happen to celebrate its beginning.

Always Anti-fascist!

I think Lippman's stories are better than her novels,but I like both, considering she has many things that I want and is therefore a life-stealing heffa who deserves to die. But I appreciate her talent and I hope, if she ever finds my latest story anywhere, she finds it an homage rather than me ripping her off.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel like tomorrow should be the first day of school, but I realize my thinking is 20+ years old. In My Day, we started the Thursday after Labor Day!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

In My Day, we started the Thursday after Labor Day!

Uphill both ways in the snow, right?
