Sounds like you should move here. Plenty of strip bars, not as many smoking restrictions, no income tax, sales taxes to be determined, no subway.....

And the Mr. sat there saying "why the fuck doesn't Faith take off her bra? It just looks ... weird." And, for viewing purposes, the Mr. finds hand-holding to be an outrageously erotic display, so that's saying something about the lack of sexiness of it all.

Maybe this really does forward the plot, and the Scoobies will defeat evil with A HUGE PULSE OF ORGASMIC ENERGY. They'd better get a lot hotter if that is the case. Shockingly tepid.

I did, however, need a dining room table to create him. This is an especially amusing factoid to mention AFTER the guests have finished dinner.

Don't worry, Fonzie, no apology is necessary. Your post was so humourous that I did not take it as a serious vent.

Besides, who could be seriously mad at me? I'm a puppy!

Microsoft introduces the e-potty:

Why Mike Price got fired...

This is kind of sports-related but I think it's lurid enough to bring to the FB as well...

As some of you may know, Mike Price, the newly-hired head football coach of the University of Alabama Crimson Tide was fired this week before ever coaching a game (and before signing his contract). Price was allegedly fired for bringing home a couple of dancers from a strip club and engaging in various acts with them, and because one of them ran up a $1000 room service bill on his university credit card.

Sports Illustrated is reporting this week what it purports is a detailed account of the events of the night in question. The 57-year-old and very married Price says he was too drunk to really know what happened. A story giving some of the details follows:

http://espn.go.com/ncf/news/2003/0507/1550422.html

My favorite paragraph:

According to SI, Price left the club at midnight and went back to his hotel. According to one of the women involved, Price engaged "in some pretty aggressive sex" with two women in the hotel. The source told SI that at one point she and her female companion "started screaming 'Roll Tide!' and he was yelling back, 'It's rolling, baby, it's rolling.' "

:shame:

I HEART puppies. Pretty little prancy dancy rolly polly puppies. I will try to watch the mouth (still saving that apology for someone who can f%$k me up worse than you can) -- it is just the freedom of the whole uncensored thing must have tripped my watching sports at home and swearng at the TV switch.

no, no, the sexy image comes from your "title" and your little descriptions of your body and chocices of lingerie and high heeled shoes while also describing how you do womanly things great and love sports. As they aggregate over the years, men cyberswoon. Too bad it doesnt translate in real life

When you say this kind of thing people might think that you're manipulative.

Wa-ha-ha-ha.....

Seriously, there isn't anything to say. I was shockingly bored. I was so bored I found myself reading the Economist on the side. A real mark-time episode.

Basically, Faith & the wannabes captured a Bringer to make it talk. They made Andrew talk instead, and so they learned the bringers were hiding weapons in the tunnels outside of town. Then everyone had sex, except Buffy & Spike, who exchanged really bad speeches instead of fluids. But that was still easier to watch than Alison Hannigan trying to act come-hither while sounding like she has a stuffy nose, wondering if Principal Wood was secretly gay given the amount of enthusiasm he appeared to show about Faith screwing him, and watching Xander and Anya roll around and wondering if it would make his eye socket leak. Then Buffy found an axe at the vineyard, and Faith and the wannabes found a bomb under the Bringers' weapons cache.

C'est tout.

Hello to my coworker

Co-worker and I have reached a "I won't tell if you won't tell" elementary school-type understanding. So if you haven't confronted a co-worker in the past hour, you don't need to slam your door.

Apparently, I wasn't as Fashionably Anon as I thought - oh well, at least I don't have to post under so many socks.

Sometimes the world is much too small.

Ps. If anyone else from our office is on here, let's meet in the conference room and have it out now.

I'm sure she turned to her hubby and said "Can you believe that bitch?" after I got off the train, but who cares?
Luckily I'm never close to the clippers, but I seem to have radar ears when it comes to that little clip sound and gum cracking. I think we should slow down our lives a bit so we can take care of all the personal hygiene needs at home instead of proving our prowess at multi-tasking by cobining hygiene and commuting. Gives new meaning to "walk and chew gum." Other favorite peeves include make up application, those who wear curlers in public, and people who insist on reapplying their lipstick at the table in the restaurant/bar.
