He's signing an American football Tyr, I wonder what he could play...?

That's not a football - it's a dinosaur egg.

He is, in fact, Professor Challenger.  :bowler:

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

From an info email from the Vienna public transport company regarding changes in some tram lines:

"Line 71 will offer a direct connection between the Central Cemetary and the Stock Exchange."

Is this for stockbrokers committing suicide - or the undead dabbling in stocks?  :hmm:

Ugh...a lot of my girls bring in these funny stuffed animals/slash cushions to class, and today one girl brought in a "flower snake" animal cushion.

For those who don't know that's the equivalent of bring a gold digger pillow to class.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I have no idea what a "flower snake" animal cushion is, but I'm mildly curious. Do you have a picture? And why does it mean gold digger?

When I google flower and snake, most of the links are to a couple of Japanese SM productions - anime and live action.

A stuffed animal-pillow that looked like a snake with flowers stuck on it.

Not exactly how it was explained to me, but given the detail I'm going with this explanation.

The insomnia is back. Grrrrrrrrrr.

Tried some exercise during the day?  Cutting down caffeine six hours before bed?  /languishdoctor
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Man, you take a lot of painkillers.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
