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

Thank GOD for good neighbors - Damages is shooting in my neighborhood, apparently at the house where my car was parked. So the crew towed it a couple of blocks away, where it is now parked ILLEGALLY. Fortunately, my neighbor saw it and has offered to move it for me once she gets the spare keys from my babysitter.

(If they'd scratched it while they were moving it, could I sue Damages for damages? Let's hope that stays hypothetical.)

(Also, it might actually be Unforgettable. I've seen signs up for both shows.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The constitution has limited application to non citizens on foreign soil, w/r/t the due process question.

I thought part of the new bill was that he could also detain American citizens.

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

Hey, can some parents here watch the video at this link and reassure me that it's deviant behaviour on the part of everyone without a blindfold?

Pretty sure I can do that without watching the video.

Because books.

Oh my GOD. Why would you do that?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So, in an effort to feed myself from the freezer I just ate a bowl of frozen peas heated up with salt and butter.

This proved so successful that I then heated up frozen green beans in butter with a dash of Balsamic vinegar.

Also delicious.

My shocking scientific discovery? Butter makes it better.

Write that down before you forget it.

The video really helps. Because, until I watched it, I assumed the parents were tricked into French kissing their kids. Gross, but not their fault, right?

Uh-huh.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm finding this really charming. A truck driver and his wife (from a town that I used to live in, btw) won $8.3 million in the Lotto. He was facing bankruptcy with his credit card bills, and now he gets to call his lawyer and stop those proceedings, and they get to move out of the trailer park and take "a modest vacation trip to Minnesota." "See the Little House on the Prairie," Janet said, jumping up and down. "That's what we're going to do."

Once you get past $75,000/year, money can't make you happy: [link]

I would like the ability to test that theory.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What the fucking fuck, ita?!?!?!?
