On a September 11, no less.

Jokes are hard.

Like most Nutmeggers, I had completely forgotten that we even have high school football until this happened.

For what it's worse, there is zero obsession with football in Connecticut. A lot of towns don't even *have* teams.

At the same time, we'd also say it's unsurprising if it were an upper-class suburb like Simsbury. Stupidity doesn't know class distinctions.

I am instantly reminded of Tina Fey's classic "Pamela Mackey" monologue. The fact that that lawyer's name stuck in my brain after all these years shows how effective it was.

I was referring to the past few years in which he did random appearances when he had no projects to promote.

Saturation point: Reached.

Nope, it was the premature baby; you got the right link and I had mentally messed up the details. I knew it was something involving a baby but for some reason had miscarriage in mind, probably because that is a known complication with celiac. Either way, it's horrible and the guy should burn for it.

Willie is tons of fun — I miss him at 5 AM on MSNBC — but I don't think he can do hard interviews very well. They'd have to use Natalie for those. But yeah, a Willie/Natalie fest would be wonderful.

Well, I mean, *sometimes* the media screw up stories, but never ones about SCIENCE!

Oh, I'm sure he does. I wasn't under the impression that he /only/ photographs her this way.

This petition to make R. Kelly's "Ignition (Remix)" the new national anthem is probably the only meaningful Internet petition I've ever seen: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/change-national-anthem-r-kellys-2003-hit-ignition-remix/Rm8SC7FP

Oh, Jezebel, you never fail.

I completely got that...but I'm saying I'd love to see a natural shot of her *as well* just because she's so stinking cute. Good lord.

I want to see a normal picture of her. I want to see her smile!

I saw a rat once outside the Friendly's in Torrington that was the size of Bristol's inferiority complex, so not quite "nothing."
