    @Lysergic Asset: Here's the quote I love from the NYT book review:

    Enjoy!

    Elsewhere in this volume, she talks about creationism, saying she "didn’t believe in the theory that human beings — thinking, loving beings — originated from fish that sprouted legs and crawled out of the sea" or from "monkeys who eventually swung down from the trees."

    @Banjo-Sea Kitten: Technically, it's more like "and" than "or"--we's fishmonkies, plain and simple (actually, of course, it's a bit more complex than that, but nevermind). But I'm guessing that wasn't her objection.

    what jeopardy? the logic of writing to your shadow self, "[shadow self], we love you," strikes me as lynchian in the extreme. (cue synths, over-compressed white noise, a single flickering candle...)

    I did not know that Jabba the Hut had a grandson.

    I hope he goes to the big house; and someone puts a huge green balloon up his bum; and then pops it.

    I would just like to point out the obvious, that "green balloons" is probably the best safe word ever created. I mean, are there two words that can exstinguish the sexy better than those two?
    Kudos to Mr. Jetton for enlightening all of us.

    @manchops: I don't know if you're old enough to remember when Republicans wanted to tatoo the Gay's asses during the 1980s. It was done under the guise of protecting people from the AIDS menace. I'd like to propose a similar amendment to have Republican's asses tatooed, so everyone could be forewarned.

    Yeah, I used to think they just raped Americans financially, but apparently now they're also physically raping people.

    Didn't doubt it for a moment. Sorry some guys just have that 'rapist quality' about them. Something that sticks with you after experiencing it for yourself. His mugshot, to me, said it all last night. I just wish my initial feelings hadn't been true b/c it's not worth a woman being raped just to be right.
