Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

Savonarola

And in your "Only in America" moment:  Cheeto flavored ice cream.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

The Brain

I have no mouth and I must have ice cream.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

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.

I guess if a couple of big celebrities started using one via a phone case, then some of the masses would follow suit.

Stand and deliver, Syt.

Is that the one with Edward James Olmos?

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Oh no.

Well definitely don't let him back into the Back Room but what damage can he do here? Get into an argument over semantics with CC and grumbler? Set off a nuclear reaction in Berkut's head?
