"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Tep,

so the reason I did hotwire is that I have gotten really great rates and not having to do any of that bargain bullshit. Not that priceline is a problem, I just haven't wanted to bother.

There is a traveler's web site out there that discusses what good rates are for various parts of the country for hotels. I don't know if the site also does rental cars.

Anyway, at least with hotwire, you will get a sense of what the going rates are depending on size of car.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm not that old.

I am older than Tom

conclusion: Tom is not that old.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Dude, I am a DECADE older than you.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

And, Tom is way younger than the original inhabitants of Colonial Williamsburg!

Oh- one of my student's mind was blown because one of my fellow instructors was once my instructor in college, which meant that he was clearly older than I am. She said she just thought of all the grownups as 50!

My 5 year old told me yesterday that the 6th graders at his school are as big as me.

Annoying at 35, rather more charming at 72.

What the hell do they feed the kids at your school? HGH?

I think it's more that when you're 5, and less than 4 feet tall, everyone looks big, and the difference between 11 and 39 is reduced.

Although, you know, Casper is only about 6 inches shorter than one of our (adult) neighbors.
