Soon, it will be a requirement that all posters have a fluffy adorable widdle kitty as an avatar. And we'll prance about and play with yarn and hang off of tree branches (inspiring yells of "Hang in there!") and be snipers and chase our tails and flip people off and do all the cute funny things that fluffy widdle kitties do! Oh look, there is an avatar of a kitty asleep in the paws of a big menacing dog! Too cute!!!! Hey, there is an avatar of a kitty that, belying it's cute kitty image, has a bottle of beer in one furry widdle paw and a cigarette hanging out of its cute widdle kitty mouth!!!! What a juxtaposition!!! It is almost as if the word "Yay!" is inadequate to sum up the destructive tidal wave of good feeling washing over the New Fashion Board thread of the The Fashionable forum found in the General Discussion section of the LawTalk Forums right now.

Almost.

Here are some to choose from: http://homepage.mac.com/darkle/kitties/ (spree: kitties, hundreds and hundreds of kitties)

Who is "we"?

Are you asking him to corroborate the collaboration?

Nothing wrong with being patriotic, but it gets funny sometimes, like the other night when Mathew Barnaby jumped Owen Nolan and Nolan was winning.

Truly you lie.

Talk about picking on someone your own size. Nolan has what, like 5 inches and 50 pounds on Barnaby? Couldn't he have just swatted the little guy away?

Anyway, I was visiting a client at the Gateway Arch recently, and she gave me tickets about 10 rows from the glass to see the Blues play. Chris Pronger is a fricken monster.

Stuff On Floor Either Cat Food Or Cat Shit
LODI, NJ—The moist, brownish pile on the Gehrke living-room floor is either cat food or cat shit, sources reported Monday. "If I had to guess, I'd say it's cat food," said Lydia Gehrke, 44, staring at the mystery heap. "But the way Oscar's been digesting lately, cat shit is definitely a possibility, too." Though a long shot, Gehrke noted that it could also be cat vomit. "Whatever it is," she said, "it involves the cat."


Perhaps someone will come up with a suitable avatar to capture the magic of this story.

I guess the only difference between the two of us (besides the looks and accent) are that I'm doing it for free.

God, PJ's ugly.

Edited to add: After reading this, "I, for one, cannot wait to see how TM responds to this," this post will be a bigger let down than I anticipated.

Your response was lackluster. I am let down. I was expecting so much more from you.

*sigh*

Shit. Dammit. I had the perfect picture. Stoopid Google.

When I was a little kid and would throw temper tantrums, my dad would sometimes just sit there and look at me until I ran out of steam and then say "is that all you got George? Is that it?" or something like that. It would usually make me giggle and I would say "my name's not George" and I wouldn't be mad anymore (he is a very patient person).

I use a variation of this in depositions where opposing counsel is using lengthy speaking objections. I wait until s/he takes a breath and I interject with "Are you done yet?" It usually further enrages them, so that I can ask it again later. It looks great in the transcript. I look reasonable while they look like a ranting turd.

A ranting turd is nothing but a chocolate submarine dodging spittle bombs.

I am open to suggestions. I'm afraid a clause (tee hee) in my contract forbids me from appearing with beer or cigarettes, but otherwise I'm flexible.

Some felines apparently don't have that restriction:

How fun! paigow is living in 1986 right now. I'm looking forward to the next 15 posts or so from our princess so that I can enjoy a 80s and 90s retrospective. maybe she'll be kind enough to use phrases from the appropriate year in those posts! Yay!

When will the memo come out then?

So Kemp decided to beat him in the "having kids with different women and refusing to support any of them" contest. Who's the baddest motherfucker now, Mr. Take-Care-of-Your-Family-Bird?

Kemp has 7 illegitimate children. I can only find evidence of one for Larry, although apparently she has never met Larry.

I know Larry fucked the Pistons a few times.

He was at this party I went to back when he played junior hockey. It turns out I had tree-planted right near his home town and he was living in mine, so we had *so* much in common I thought I was going to get lucky. Unfortunately my boyfriend showed up (dammit. I was in) I told him I thought he was going to be the number one draft pick though. And I was only off by one. He was skinnier back then.

Pretty soon I will have exhausted all my hockey stories and then I will have nothing to say. You all can only dream when that day will come.
