It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I mean, she legally doesn't have one. I am envious.

Can you do that????

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

There was a news story a while ago about a man with the last name of O

Just O

Caused all kinds of problems with forms, the DMV, etc.

Trust my rage

I have a client whose last name is "de la O". It's sort of confusing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

ita de la O. I think I like it. I should start the paperwork. I mean, if I have to have one.

Google Voice scares me. I think it's encroaching on all my phone calls. I don't remember giving that number out to the pharmacy, yet...I have a voicemail from them transcribed...this is why my sister won't give any of her information to Google. Because once they start, they consume you.

I knew a guy in high school named John O. (I knew a guy in college named Bong. Last name, Kim.)

Because once they start, they consume you.

It eats you, starting with your bottom.

Wait, does that mean Google is the First Evil?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Happy New House, Kate!

I work with a PhD named Kenneth K. O and this seems to confuse everyone - I always have to correct references to "Dr. K. O. Kenneth".

I also sometimes work with a professor with only one name. Our xml software cannot handle it. It wants first name/last name.

It would be really cool to only have one name and have it be your surname.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I bought road trip food. I am ready to go to Kentucky! Well, tomorrow is Ohio, then the next day is Kentucky. And I haven't packed my suitcase yet. But I have food! (I'm not always certain about what vegan options will be on the road, so I generally stock up on Larabars and things like that. This time, I noticed that the grocery store had these things called GoPicnic, which is a whole shelf-stable meal in a box. There are a few different kinds, and one is vegan -- it has crackers, hummus, nuts and dried fruit, and a piece of chocolate.)
