I'm merely giving you the party line that gets them past your objection. Justice is stern. If you want to argue rationality and religion, well, I'm not going there.

HOME DECORATING QUESTION--BED SKIRTS

OK, the top of my box spring is exactly 17" off the ground. When shopping for bedskirts, what length is correct? I keep seeing them in a range of every inch from 14" to 18"---should it be exactly the same as the bed height or slightly shorter or slightly longer? I need help.

Thank you

Bunny

Maybe so, but the French perfected it.

Apropos of nothing, I can't remember the last Sunday I went to Mass, but I ate a tuna sandwich today, and will keep the next few Fridays meat-free. It's obviously some sort of an atavistic residue of brainwashing in childhood thingy, but I just can't help but do the Lent stuff.

Coincidently, and not by choice, I'm still fasting today. So far I haven't broken lent. This will end as soon as I can get something akin to food in my stomach. And at this point, meat is sounding really, really good. My forehead is unadorned.

Serious question about rich people

Why would anyone making pro-football kind of money, want to sell drugs? I mean, take the risk of selling drugs to go to jail?

ATLANTA - Baltimore Ravens running back Jamal Lewis, who had the second-highest rushing total in NFL history last season, was indicted Wednesday on federal drug charges. Lewis is charged with conspiring to possess with the intent to distribute 5 kilograms of a substance containing cocaine

Your skirt should be short enough so it can be easily flipped up in order to have access to what you have stored under it.

Oh. Right.

This and Hunter's later post makes me wonder: It is clearly illegal to import and sell real Absinthe here, but will that stop some shady eastern European distiller from sending you a bottle or two of the real stuff. I ask purely in the abstract, as I personally am free from sin.

I think this joke has gone from poking fun at paigow to most of you actually trying to take credit for something. and that makes it beyond played out.

Welcome to the agnostic deists, where a god created the world and then went to lunch.

God was basically absentmindedly playing a rather large version of The Sims. Then he got bored and went out for food.

Maybe He created it on accident. And hasn't even noticed us yet.

Um, Not Bob, that's my point. She believes those of us who don't pray the way she does is toast. She's not pretty sure of it.

And I think the word is "namaste." Don't make me say it to you.

If I'm sending away to Europe and probably getting myself placed on some DEA watch list, I'd like to see the colors dance like the cover of Yoshimi Fights the Pink Robots.*

* I do not recommend this album with drugs. Its "too much."

I got a signed Yoshimi poster at a charity silent auction for the minimum bid of $80. The boys in the band gave the Robots and Yoshimi word bubbles. It's brilliant; one of the best purchases I made in 2003.
