Gotta love that "perhaps" - very nice get-out-of-actual-researching-facts-free weasel word!
Yeah.
"We have a former governor of Alaska who perhaps has had her brain eaten by rabid weasels and replaced with a broken Game Boy."
Oh, God. Oh, God. My hair. My hair! The government gave me bad hair!

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

Ok, I know what y'all said, but today in the mail? 2 catalogs for dog products. 2 catalogs I've never gotten before.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It's also a neat trick to be able to say "Obama is RUINING THE COUNTRY AND WE HAVE NEVER EVER HAD IT WORSE THAN THIS ZOMG SOCIALISM" while also, with a straight face, saying "America is the BEST COUNTRY EVAR AND ANYONE WHO SAYS ANYTHING BAD ABOUT IT IS A TRAITOR TO THE CONSTITUTION"
I think the expression "doesn't have two brain cells to rub together" applies perfectly here, as her two clearly are not on speaking terms with one another.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Maybe you can volunteer and contribute to the dog shelter. How about that?

In am not going to take the dog. I swear. One of you people should take him though, and fly down here to see me and pick him up.

Because books.

Isn't he a wee little thing, too? I don't really think of those as outside-only dogs. That's more for hardy working breeds.
Just saying.

Romney might get partway, but the Mormon thing is a huge hurdle for a lot of people. I don't think the Tea Partiers could bear to vote for someone they consider a heretic.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So I talked to my friend, Suz, about Julia's death.
She'd been fighting the cancer for seven years. She had gotten to the point where she was trying to hold on for the sake of her youngest daughter and help her through her early teens. The oldest daughter is 15, and Julia felt she was on-course and would deal with the loss. But the youngest is only 9 and she just wanted to be there a few more years.
It's all complicated in that Julia and her husband had divorced, and he recently remarried. And the girls were primarily with Julia. So now they have to not only deal with their grief and loss but they are moving into a new house, with a new step-mother, and a new step-brother (also 15, but his primary custody is with his father).
Apparently Julia had developed some allergies to some of the opioids, so there wasn't as much they could do to alleviate the pain.
So hard.
