After performing a mental ritual killing (mental only, mind you) then find another fleshy being to flop around with. You would be amazed how quickly a new flop, especially a better one, allows you to forget an old flop...

B-52s usually add some nuclear spring to my calves... Kate Pierson could make a corpse dance...

This was based on a question I overheard...



Reality can amaze...

Cool! I'm going to see if falling on my head will improve my Japanese skills...

私は外人です。あなたはりすですか。はい、そうです。このりすが家の部屋にありません。

IT WORKED!!!! 

Woof... ditto here. Too many books weigh down my computer room to even begin listing them. It would take me hours if not days to delineate them all.

I am curious from the original post, though, what translations/versions are you reading of the Illiad and the Odyssey? I have my eyes on the Robert Fagles series, but haven't begun buying or reading yet.

Wow. This guy must have graduated with honors from slumlord college. That's positively BRILLIANT!

Does he live in the building? I'm guessing not. Does he ever appear in the building? I'm guessing not very often.

And I agree with the post above that suggested something else going on. A lot of money for some rather vague improvements. If you wake up surrounded by people in white bubble suits scraping the walls sprint don't run to your nearest lawfirm.

I just finished listening to つじあやの's album 恋する眼鏡 (which means something like "The Glasses You Love"). Really good non JPOP Japanese music. Good melodies and real instruments (not layered with drum machines and computer squacks).

And many people say that she has "Geek Chic".  

Ewwww... guns.... ewwwww....

I'm not a fan of firearms. But humans being the way they are, we unfortunately have made them necessary. Like cell phones. Another mistake.

The Second Amendment does say what it says. So that makes gun ownership a right by law. But people also need to realize that the guys who wrote the constitution lived some three hundred years ago, and times have changed more than a bit. Back in the late 1700s they used inaccurate powder rifles that took a good 30 seconds to a minute to load (the bayonets probably killed more people). Plus, the US had no standing army at the time. So citizens had to have protection against uprisings or even invading foreign armies, especially on the frontier. Revisiting the amendment may make sense in the age of automatic weapons and the military industrial complex. There's no way that amendment protects us from anyone these days. For maximum safety, we would also need the right to body armor, infared battle helmets, grenades, and air-to-air missles. I would vote for more restrictions on guns (i.e., making them harder to obtain), but never banning them outright.

EAT YOUR JUICY PULSATING NEURONS!!!!!

Whoa! I've been to Uruguay. Montevideo is a cool city. One look at Palacio Salvo and you'll want to stay. Plus they have chivitos and Viglietti. Go. Now.

Whoo. When I saw the thread title I thought "are people still ranting about this?!?" What about the homosexual Teletubbie? Doesn't anyone care?!??!

Old thread. Whoa.
