Very enlightening. Thank you.


However, what do you mean he created her? Like some sort of Frankenstien thing? Breeding thing (like the horses)?

Did anyone else find it ironic that a 16 year old boy was shot and killed at a club/private party for two college fraternities??? And with "{a}bout 1,500 people milling about outside Eddie Deen's Ranch had been denied entry to the event hosted by two chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity."

Thanks for the clarification, but it would have been more helpful had you actually highlighted the appropriate correction.

Else, folks may have interpreted the statement to be, "We will make no wine before its time. Sell."

Either that or you mistook you Ameritrade account for your LawTalk window. Shame on you for two-timing.

Is this a Catholic thing where everyone has a soul starting at conception so you should treat it like a sibling? I am a confirmed Catholic but we didn't get to fetus handling.
Its actually a very popular form of art. I haven't explored the plaster-casting angle, but my wife and I have some lovely silkscreens. One room is a succession of the same screen in various dayglo colors. Its hot.

I have a magazine article somewhere about a kid called the "Drinking Champion of Delaware." Some 15 yo kid wandered into a Unive of DE houseparty and downed some absurd amount of shots (something like 30), got a standing o, walked outside and sat in the front yard, where he proceeded to die. That's rock and fucking roll.

You know, I was thinking that you should have written "proceeded to death," but as the kid was sitting down, I don't think that construction would work either.

Although some have criticised my use of the "letter" format to communicate with you about certain matters, I find it useful in that it conveys the tone of constructive criticism, as opposed to mean-spirited flaming, that I think is appropriate for posts such as this one.

I am writing to inform you that the use of "tres" to modify an English word in a sentence otherwise filled English words is the equivalent to some of walking into a chic New York bar and loudly proclaiming "Do you have any Mojitos here? I understand they are super classy!"

I write to you because I care.

Fondly,

The Flower
Dear Flower,

I find that while I am in agreement with the tone and content of your letter to Not Bob generally, I cannot help but feel that perhaps, the letter would have had a bit more panache had you closed it with ciao instead of the tres pedestrian "fondly."

Hasta,

Wonk

No. No different than you creating your kid. The only difference is that he and his wife tried and tried and tried and were told they just weren't supposed to have children, right? Didn't the mother keep miscarrying? So, if they had stopped when the message that they were supposed to stop became clear, this wouldn't have happened.

Somewhere in Belarus or Ukraine there was a good old fashioned drinking contest where the winner (who lived) registered about a 0.60% of the BAC.

That. Is. High.

That's not nearly as impressive as it sounds. They're on the metric system over there.

I always got the impression the kid was abducted. When whatshername goes to talk to the local doctor (the one with the retarded son), the doctor says that the girl just "appeared" one day or something to that effect.

I don't think he's really 6'4". Men well over 6' display a confidence, a certain way of listening and watching the world around, them that is palpable. While he is certainly very witty, and urbane, he does lack this one relatively unimportant trait.

So I don't think he's 6'4". Not to say he isn't 7" shorter than T.

Dear taxwonk, J.D., Esq.,

Good call on the martini. Like the margarita, it is timeless. But I urge you not to indulge those for whom even the slightest hint of vermouth thoroughly emasculates both the martini and its drinker. Although Churchill could get away with this silly bravado, I hope that you enjoy a more traditional recipe.

I remain,

Your humble and obedient servant,

The Flower

Really?

I took that to mean that they had done something unspeakable (against the laws of nature) to get her prego. Now I'm going to have to watch it again.

I love that movie.
