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.

I just hope that the price increase levels out over time.

It's interesting that Obama isn't playing this as a populist move, at least to me. Reducing dependence on foreign oil doesn't seem to be something you can readily oppose.

Camaraman on reality TV would be a great gig.  All those chicks with low self-esteem.  Just pretend that you're actually interested in who dissed them, and you're in any and all of their orifices.
