OK crap the pic didn't work. Here's a link.
It's sad. Lindsay Lohan has set my bar so low that looked more or less acceptable.

No, no. Agreed they are just reporting news. I meant the news itself is messed up and the other sites, cnn and msnbc do not seem to have items on either thing...it isn't a fox thing really.

that paris letter she writes like a 5th grader.

It's not the money -- it's the time. I need to take a position on this album, I am way too important and busy to sit down and listen to it.

Anyway the pneumonic is key here. You are closer to "O" than you thought. Think about it. On the other hand, not being sure if you are in california or Washington, means you don't know what to do to get to "O".

All you really need do is contact RT about vibrator recommendations.
This is actually one of the funnier malapropisms we've seen in quite a while.

Many thanks. You should know that there is not a Mughlai region; rather, Mughlai cuisine refers to the cuisines of the Mughals, which would blend the Persian influences of the Islamic Mughal conquerors with the native cuisine of Northern India (particularly the Hindustani region).

I thought it important that you should know.
Actually, the Mughlai region refers to a much wider swath of India than that. It is generally understood to describe a type of cuisine that finds its home from the Khyber, which links Pakistan and Afghanistan, clear across the Country of India, and into Bangladesh, and South to Tamil Nadu.

But thanks for trying.

when you're trying to be mean, take a step back and make sure you're not whiffing, like a 13 year old flower with an open can of gasoline.

Someone, I, errr know, had his band's record obliterated by a famous Village Voice critic, let's call him RC. The person I know's mother sent RC a very nasty letter, easily qualifying as hate mail.

So fast forward a decade and this person ran into someone he knew who worked at the Village Voice who asked if his mother wrote a letter to RC because it was framed and hung up outside his cubicle.
I think it's very nice that your Mommy still loves you so much.

I've taken a position without ever hearing anything more than the one-half of Izzy Pog (or whatever the name of that one song on the radio is) that I was subjected to before we could get the station changed. My position is that it is self-important and contrived, cloying and pretentious. You are welcome to borrow that if you like.

your time is valuable? you don't act like it. the problem is that you wasted time reading two reviews. next time just read one, and lock into it.

I'm not whiffing. It was a fuck-up. Not a major fuck-up, like this lame-assed post hoc crap. But it was a fuck-up nonetheless.
