I love Martha Plimpton. And I had no idea she could sing so well! (Tuesday's Raising Hope.)
msbelle, apply chocolate.
Gabriel: Are you trying to destroy this family? Simon: I didn't realize it would be so easy.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I have no chocolate. I took my rage to FB. The financial mini-mutinies of Occupy were good start, but there really needs to be a social issues rising up of voices/votes. Polls seem to show that the majority of people are not behind these attacks on contraception. so why are they moving forward?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I was so curious, Erin! Aspirin between the knees? What could that possibly mean??
It was wrong of me and I'll never do it again.

Me too. I thought it was a common thing. I'm sorry for anyone hearing the "logic" of that for the first time.
edit: Physicists really need to start studying that strange magnetic force between a woman's legs that is so attractive to a penis that a man is so utterly unable to keep away. It's probably part of the Unified Field Theory. Definitely one of the Strong forces. Probably a Nobel in it for somebody.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hee!
Ita is the smallest body in the Verse to undergo terraforming. As a result, the terraforming efforts have not been successful. Ita has become a test bed for experimental terraforming techniques. In 2470, Ita was chosen as a location for a secondary Alliance orbital drydock facility. However budget restructuring has left the Ita facility as little more than a holding facility and scrapyard. “Towed to Ita” has become a euphemism for permanent impound. While there is a small used spaceship business at Ita, most ships leave Ita in pieces. The scrapyards at Ita’s L4 and L5 positions are havens for small-time salvagers, both legitimate and otherwise.

Now I want to work "towed to ita !" in conversation.
And scientists are now discovering moons in other solar systems. I bet sometime in the next 10-100 years, some Firefly fan will name a real moon ita.
Or ita !
