Both depositions took place in nearby vehicles.

In other news, Lollapalooza was apparently cancelled due to poor ticket sales. I can say that once I saw the ACL line up, there was no point in trekking up to Dallas for Lollapalooza. Here's hoping the Flaming Lips are a late addition to ACL.

Bunny Financial Question

So, this month has been a bad financial month for me. In addition to putting all new gutters on my house, purchasing my first lawn mower, buying a foal in utero (yes, who the hell does this?), my car just crapped out and had to be towed (despite being a relatively new 2000) and I fear the end of its reliability is near and i will (gasp) have to buy something more long-term reliable like a Honda rather than remain Saab loyal. So, a piece of horse equipment I really wanted just became available (very bad timing) and it will be a while before one comes along again. It costs approximately two times my mortgage payment. I do not need it in order to survive, but it would make my life much easier. Do I: (a) pass it up and wait 6 months for another one to float ashore and remain fiscally responsible; (b) buy it on my credit card and hope next month isn't like this month; (c) remind my parents that my birthday is approaching and beg and plead until they buy it for me to shut me up; (d) start hocking the rare lunchboxes and replacing them with new knock-offs. My gut tells me to pass it up, but my horse(s) would be much happier if I got it.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

Not if you only have to make three turns to get there.

You can sell your body to the night.

Sorry, that song is stuck in my head since this morning's drive.

Beg your parents....Or pass it up. The Saab to fix is expensive there is a saying that Saab is Sob because you sob every time you take it in to be fixed....

Is the lawn mower a John Deere riding mower? Or a Kubota? What is the equestrienne equipment?

If somebody offers to sell you the device that Catherine the Great used to have the sex with her horses, they are probably lying.

No pinky dick here. But if I did have one, I would find myself something that brought me back to the time when no one cared about dick size. Something innocent. Maybe something I used to carry to school.

And then I would spend every waking moment of my life trying to buy every single one I could. And I would find a girl who thought that buying 5 of these a day would infuse love into our otherwise pathetic, meatless (catch that double entendre?) relationship.
