We'll invade Sweden, but then we'll change our minds and invade Norway for its petroleum.
Oooh, burn.
When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Because books.
If we invade Sweden, can we claim their parental leave policy as a war spoil?
And take all the meatballs?

Nah, too socialist. Instead, we'll impose the "best health care system in the world" on them (I can't remember which genius came out with that one).
I'm guessing that was pre-health-care-reform, though.

It occurs to me that Tim Robbins may not have gone far enough with Bob Roberts. We're way past that now.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I haven't seen the latter, so I vote the former.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Sweden has pretty decent chocolate, too.
Hec, quit making me homesick.
I was all geared up to go to the NREC mtg tonight and help with the bike infrastructure & community garden items but I blew it. The mtg was actually LAST Tuesday. Unfortunately, I had started tweeting to try to get people to attend so now I look like a royal ass. Well, I guess the fact that people don't really listen to me makes it easier - it's unlikely anyone actually read the tweet and started planning on attending. Still. Embarrassing.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
stuck at work until other people do stuff, so I painted my nails. Finished off a bottle of polish, can't remember the last time I did that.
I am so cold today I don't even know. It's 49 outside and 66 in. too cold for me inside.

argh can't concentrate!
Also so hungry! And I had a bunch of sushi and seaweed salad for lunch. I feel like I can't eat enough this week.

Consuela, I'm sorry your home plans aren't working the way you'd hoped. I hope some decent solution presents itself.
