Jones added that in recent months he had noticed a “strange odor” coming through his vent.”We thought it was probably dead mice in the vent or something,” he said, adding that he had talked to the landlord about it.
D.C. Council member Marion Barry, who represents the neighborhood where the bodies were found, questioned why no one had reported the four missing.”
Somebody should have known that some people were not in school,” said Barry, the former mayor.
And a headline that I so totally didn’t anticipate a few years ago, I’ll admit:
Glowing Pig Passes Genes to Piglets
So, color me surprised, even though, somewhat contradictorily, I would have been more surprised had it not been the case.
Congress wants to do for the nation what they’ve done for DC.
Nice subway.
On the way home from work I stopped for an oil change (for my *car*, you pervs!).
I got to talking to a little old lady at DeKalb Tire on Roswell Rd., and she got to telling me about all the outrages she’d watched on TV while waiting to get *her* (car’s) oil changed.
Jeezus! Young woman killed and decapitated, and evidence scattered over a couple of counties; kids thrown in Mobile Bay; murdered kids in DC.
Even though it’s only Wednesday, I stopped to get a bottle of Woodbridge chardonnay from the Koreans on the I-285 access road.
The world’s wireless LANs will be a little less secure tomorrow, I’m afraid. Me, Bilbo Baggina, and the bottle have a date.
“Sickmaking”?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…
I don’t think we’re really supposed to know about all this stuff in such aggregate. Ain’t natural, and I think it skews your view of the world, I really do.
“A little lower than teh Angels”?
Ric Locke has another “church lady” to derogate.
Dear happyfeet: Ready or not, here it comes.
Do US Marshals routinely serve eviction notices? Intriguing…
Wow, Cleo, still stinging from that one? Must have hit a Church-Ladyish nerve or something.
, “still stinging from that one?”
>chuckle> It’s the funny bone that tickles me.
I think getting rid of the tv part helps a lot, Patrick, but that’s hard to do if you live with people cause usually you don’t get to be idiosyncratic like that when people are around all the time.
Dear happyfeet: I really watch no TV, but what I TiVo (House, Simpsons. South Park, (get the picture?)), so mostly I see little of the “it bleeds, it leads” stuff. And I have loads of people at home.
I guess I’m just *sensitive*.
I guess I’m just *sensitive*.
Geez, Patrick, I’m sorry. That must suck.
So, tell me, the Shocker and the Stinger, what’s the consensus preference?
(And no NH pollers this time.)
Yeah. I watch but I never get it straight from the tap. YouTube more than does the trick for any newsy sort of thing I miss.
Are you tasing me, bro?
Dear Dan: “Teh Irony” ™ is lost on some. Sensitive be, you must.
(Or however the f*ck the little green troll would have put it.)
(Oooooh! Saruman’s wailing on Gandalf! Cool!)
Dear Dan: If memory serves, you started this. Tazing you not I am.
Good Lord God in Heaven. Can I sneak this in here?

Is this one of those things everyone knows about already but me?
Heranatomical? A slander against Hera!
Oh yeah I thought I fixed all those.
In DC. Yes. There is no state or county government, and so no state police or sheriff–the US Marshals serve those functions in the Capitol.
Dear happyfeet: You HAVE got to be shitting me!
On the (related) other hand, maybe this is a clue that God is a committee. I mean, placing a recreation area in between two sewage processing plants, and then placing sharp instruments on the property….
(Cooooool!!!!! The Nazgul just got the wrong beds!)

Every rose has its thorns, LOL!
That rose is wrong in so many ways.
Chainmail it is then. It’ll play hell with sensitivity but, you know, any landing you can walk away from….
Y’know, Semanticleo, watching you and your cohorts cavort, I begin to wonder if the American education system has developed something I would have previously considered impossible: a coherent anti-education program designed to totally thwart anything resembling learning, and awarding Doctorates in Cluelessness to people who can absolutely prove that they know nothing and are impervious to information in any form.
Voltaire would have seen what Dan was up to with that; so would Marx. Hell, Hegel would have seen the point, and possibly chuckled — which would have made the whole thing worthwhile; making that pile-driven dourmass smile would be the mitzvah of a lifetime. You? Nah. Here’s a piece of literature that, whatever its undeniable faults, served as a common source of metaphors, similes, and homilies, the glue that held Western literature and letters together, for ten centuries, and a simple play on one of its basic concepts flies by you like a Tokyo-bound 747.
Semanticleo, ClD (Honors). Yeah, that works.

When BushCo gets rid of them, no one notices.
Recently some Libs helpfully apprised me of this signature feature when I asked them to name someone who had disappeared via the BushCo’s machinations.
[CFL’s are protective.]
Ric – I admire you. I find it much easier to just tell it to go tend to its pre traumatic stress disorder, or to go fuck itself.
And that whole va-jay-jay with molars thing is creepy. But, making a movie about it is even creepier.
Who ended up missing her dentures?
[…] with Alec Baldwin in them, is Chatterbox. I bring it up because of yesterday’s talk about this, and because people tend to forget these things in all the hype about the cutting edge, […]
“Hell, Hegel would have seen the point, and possibly chuckled”
Yeah, Berkeley woulda’ hadda’ Locke on it and Hume woulda’ had similar room to presume. But as Collins noted later; ““Art is not what you see,†noted Edgar Degas, “but what you make others see”.
It’s the humor, stupid, not teh irony. If you Kant, then you can’t.
A clue could walk up to Miss Cleo, kick her in the shin, punch her in the gut, and slap her right across that face only a mother could love, and she would still miss it.
Smantypants is trying to be as funny as Carrot Top.
Figures.
In other words, you still didn’t get it. Kudos for the rhymes, though.

Ric
