I'm going to assume his last name was Pinion.

I met a little boy named Taft the other day, and I know more than one McKinley.

I agree about the lipstick shades, but I think some of it might have been the lighting, which was very cool.

I've been told my Great Aunt had an indoor cow.

I'm pretty sure that last one was written by Tommy Wiseau.

In his defense (sort of), I'm getting the vibe that he may not have been a compketely sober idiot. I would be alarmed if he had a history of this, but in a party atmosphere people sometimes do things they otherwise wouldn't. That doesn't make it right, or make him any less guilty, but hopefully it does mean he doesn't…

I am wearing a steel-boned corset right now, though for me it is not a lifestyle. I'm a little achy from yardwork, but over all, no it doesn't hurt. If it hurts it's too tight.

When my then-fiance, soon-to-be-ex husband and I were first looking for an apartment together we toured a place where the land lord straight up lied to me about obvious water damage and told me not to "worry my sweet little head" about it, and every time I asked him a question, he addressed his answer to my fiance,…

Depending on my gender and which parent would have named me (though there was no reason for it to be my father) the possible names floated for me were Opal or Louise (now my middle name) for a girl, and Lucas, Trayden (like trade-in) or Schroder. Thankfully my mother had a very strange dream that caused her to name me…

You forgot David Bowie.

My mother's cat was recently put down. She was 21 1/2. She spent most of her life in a drug house and had very little veterinary care. She didn't always have food. When my mother took her in, she assumed it was to give her a warm place to die. That was 3 years ago. She was named after another cat, who lived next door…

Where do you live that beets are so expensive? Around here (northern VT) they are only $0.99-$1.99/lb. Is that significantly below average?

I'll be looking forward to my state-funded nightly pregnancy test before taking my potentially birth-defect causing medications.

I know that here in VT, you always tip in cash if you can. I don't really know why, but that's how it's done. Tipping with a credit card is a tourist thing here.

Those comments must have been deleted. I'm sorry you had to read them, though.

I'm not sure inteneded audience is the best judge of the quality of a book, especially in a more abstract genre like fantasy. The Hobbit was a children's book.

It could be food-borne. It would be worth seeing if they all ate any of the same things.

Vermont is pretty good. Good for women, but could do better with disaster relief management.

How does jade have a fragrance?

I always used to hear it as "Hold me close and tie me down, sir."
