See I was going to go TV-G and quote Flo from 'Alice'.

Since you're back in the Capital of the Free World, I'd have to respond with the Senate Auto Insurance commercial.

I had to go to YouTube to run that one down.  We DVR too much when we watch TV to pay attention to commercials.

I don't watch TV, so I don't have to worry about commercials.

OTOH, World Wide Bacon Crisis!

A rise in bacon prices would mean the end of living high on the hog.

There. New Adventure Log posted on Dark Light. It's long winded and full of grammar errors and typos but chalk that up to me posting very late after a very long day at work.

And with that, I'm off to bed....
Delivered from the blast,
Last of a line of lasts,
The pale princess of a palace cracked.
And now the kingdom comes;
crashing down undone,
And I am a master of a nothing place,
Of recoil and grace.

I mean, only one other person's. LF did his own, and quite well, I might add. One other guy did his, but I think he never played before, and I suggested he restat to avoid screwing himself. Great character concept, though.

Edward: Haven't forgot about you. Dealing with stupid apartment calls.  If your shower wouldn't turn off, would you A: Call someone as soon as you could? Or, B: Wait 25 hours till the constantly running water annoyed you? 

I have Google+, but looking at some of the privacy concerns I'm unsure about it. ignore the parenthesis: j(period)j(period)mccarthy82 at google mail.

Well, I heard you did at least one other so I was wondering.

He did mine.  I don't have any of the books---in fact, until last week I'd never heard of this game.

No. Before I knew this had been going on for 25 hours, (i mean, I assumed she called me right away) I told her I was going to leave it running (while it doesn't turn off, its only about 20% flow) till maintenance comes in the am. I really didn't feel like shutting the power off and breaking the wall at 9pm.  She asked who was going to pay for the electric bill. I said we would. Then she tripped up and told me how it had been running since last night. No dice on the electric bill, you ma'am are a moron.

Is today a holiday? It should be; it's Patrick Stewart's birthday. If it's not already one, though, I submit today should be the "International Day of Classiness."

I feel classier just knowing today is today.

Hey fellas.  What's been happening the last few days?  I'm out at an archaeological dig and haven't had access to the grand ole Internet since arriving up here (it's actually been really nice).  I'm having a blast digging around in the dirt and mud though.

Mancow said today is Harrison Ford's birthday. I think that surely makes it an American holiday.

Heh speaking of the date, I thought I had an appointment at 2pm on the 14th. I've just checked the card to confirm the time and discovered it was 4pm on the 12th!

They did ask if we were related, and we did reply in unison "yes". We're bad people.

The better answer is, "How closely related?"

Nah, they just ask us that in Texas.

Also, they cared little enough that I had barely heard of a blood test whatsoever by the time I got married, and it certainly never came up during the preparations for that.
