'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
In the NYT link, another good one:
You’ve developed a reputation as being tough with journalists and even made some cry. Do you relish the sparring?
No. And in my defense, who knew that these tough crusading reporters were so tender and sensitive? Does the First Amendment say something about how you can never say anything nasty to a reporter? Growing up, I remember seeing “The Front Page.” Do you think Hildy Johnson ever cried?
He said he has patients who eat right, exercise every day and still have gained 100 lbs or more taking Serqouel.
Tim didn't gain anything after almost 5 years on Seroquel (and he knows he's damn lucky in that regard). In the past year he went off Seroquel and has gained about 5 pounds. He asked me if I thought it was due to stopping Seroquel, and I told him it was probably due to eating 3 cartons (NOT pints) of ice cream a week as well as turning 45, and that most people's metabolisms slow down when they hit 30, not 45, so he'd better just appreciate the extra 15 years he got.
He responded by offering to get me ice cream since he was going to get his. The man is not self-conscious about his body at all. I admire that.
Yeah he's lucky!
Do you think Hildy Johnson ever cried?
There is absolutely no end to the awesomeness of this.
Barney Frank: Do you think I’ve ever had an abortion?
Awesome answer.
I love me some Barney Frank.
OK, this is why we should not be trusted to our own IT work: I did the pre-work of seeing which of my email folders were not transferring properly between my desktop and the webmail (or whatever), but then I didn't back up all of the folders I should have, before switching to Outlook! For no good reason! Just because I didn't do it! And now I'm shit out of luck and have to re-organize my email again. Or wait a couple of weeks and get it back out of the Entourage data, but it's not really THAT important? Meh.
I am so goddamn sad he's retiring.
But hey! We could get another Kennedy in the House! @@
In theory, a sloth should be a lot less work than a puppy. I mean, it's not like you'd have to walk it, right?
Couldn't you just hang a branch over a drop cloth?
I'm going miss Barney Frank.
Wow, I have no idea what I'd submit for this challenge. And that makes me sad. I'm mentally walking through my apartment, and there are a lot of things I love, but nothing that sets itself apart. That's bumming me out.
