Because I am most helpful.
We'd settle for pictures of that.

What do you do with a BA in English?

In other words, like Not Nick, you told me what was going on. (And also just like those explanations, I didn't really get it, but that's because I am grammar-impaired, as we all know.) Unlike Not Nick, however, your explanation didn't include calling me any names while doing so. Had you called me something with some combination of "retarded" "doofus" or "dorkwad," I would be swiming in the misty, water-colored memories of a 9 year old Not Bobby, drinking Tang, playing with GI Joe (the one with the kung-fu grip, of course), and watching my uncles laugh at each other.
I was 11 before I developed my kung fu grip.

At this point, I would just like to say how delighted I am that this thread title has lasted this long.

Didn't the self-smeller guy (from Yahoo! days of yore) claim that his man-privates smelled of freshly baked cookies?
I thought that was Sebby back in his Raooouuuullll days. No?

File under "not all married woman are happy and fulfilled," and some learn it really early in the marriage.

  • W. Brookfield man spends wedding night in jail


    SOUTHBRIDGE— A West Brookfield man spent his wedding night in a cell after he allegedly kicked a police officer at his wedding reception yesterday, then violated a restraining order taken out by his new bride.
    ....
    ....
    ....

    Police said he then went to his brother’s home in Webster and, despite being served with a restraining order that forbade him to contact his wife of five hours, placed a call to her in West Brookfield.

okay, so your new husband is drinking too much at your reception- at what point do you go from "the drunk shit isn't getting any tonight" to "Your honor I am in fear of him and need a restraining order?"

That had to be one serious drunk right there.

Like Hank with the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, I read the FT* so you don't have to.
  • The Best Newcomer award [at the Edinburgh Festival] went to 24-year-old Josie Long for her show Kindness and Exuberance, which lives perfectly up to its title, being a deliberately lo-fi, ramshackle affair of indomitable cheerfulness. Indeed, Long may have changed my life (I'll report back next year) with her observation on the pointlessness of being cynical all the time: it's not, she says, as if somebody's going to come up to you on your death-bed and give you a prize for it, telling you, "Well done - you haven't enjoyed any of it!"

* page 8, today, or search today's on-line edition for terms above, but my browser won't copy the damned url for some reason I can't grok

I hear FT who *wouldn't* like a salmon color newspaper [I know, Ty you do the online edition but it is cool even so]
