Fun trivia fact:  the popular sandwich known as the stromboli (a cousin of the calzone, but more meatful and shaped differently) did not get its name from anything legitimately Italian.  It was invented in Essington, PA (by the current Phila. airport) in 1950 and the Rossellini-Bergman scandal was in full effect during their filming of the movie entitled "Stromboli," and the regulars at Romano's pizzeria decided it would be good hype for their new sandwich invention.   :)

A college in Montreal does a performance to the Black Eyed Peas' "I got a feeling" in a single take. Pretty impressive. And you can get to oogle cute artsy French Canadian filles.

That's adorable. ^_^ Remind me of a time when I was coming home, totally drunk, and was approached by a cat on the yard of the apartment complex where I lived. The cat's usually a total bastard, but when I'm drunk I usually love the whole world and I thought I'd try to make friends with him. I start scratching him behind the ear, okay, cool, he seem to like it, and then he lie down and let me scratch him on the stomach. And then, all of a sudden, the bastard pull out his claws and scratch me!

I almost strangled the damn thing. Ungrateful bastard.

How do you fit a tree that big in your house? You have an open living room Beeb, with the second floor set a bit back?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
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.

Not that uncommon, my folks have 20'+ ceilings and used to always get a 12-13 foot tree.

Last night I was really drunk, I fell asleep with my bedroom door open it seems.
Through the night I was certain I could hear the kittens screaming a lot louder than normal- I wake up and sure enough mommy cat has moved them into my cuboard.
I moved them back to their basket and...she tried to bring them back to the cuboard.
WTF?
My cuboard sucks, she was on a shelf with nothing on it hiding behind my only clean pair of jeans (washing day due), her basket meanwhile is full of soft things and has a little tent we made over it.
