I'm hugely into albums so I'll recommend a couple. They're both summery, and while I don't drive, I imagine they'd be ideal:

Oooh, the delusional and lazy person I mention upthread is actually trying to be a politician; fortunately she's getting nowhere (her party is hopeless but not that hopeless), unfortunately she does less and less, and complains more and more, so not so great.
Why she hasn't been fired is one of the biggest mysteries…

I'll definitely go with my initial advice then, she may even see herself as and mean to be friendly.

No middlename, so I'll just be Freegrove.

That might have been me (I recommend that one fairly often).

We had two versions there (and of course they were BFFs), one was actually hard-working (not as much as she likes to complain about though) and very openly a bitch, she is usually hated from day one by everybody. The other is a useless and lazy waste of space who spends her time complaining about things she is…

Thanks for the tip. We have plenty of amazing cocktail bars, but I've never tried his.

Shameless friends plug, but they're actually good, and the only local band I know that fits the "local" definition: http://feldspar.bandcamp.com/

It's a great occasion to bond with your other co-workers, as this person will most likely be universally hated (certainly was the case where I previosuly was, people who haven't worked with her in years still every now and then tell horror stories).

How does the price compare to similar houses in better condition?
As a rule, there's never any harm in negotiating, but maybe the asking price already takes the future improvements the buyer will have to make into consideration.

Happy birthday!

Congratulations!

Nice, the regular 10 YO?

Shuffle Thread

I thought that was the one, and in that case, I understand their decision. Had Holy Motors not won (and let's face it that would have been likely), there would have been a public outcry against the elitist busibodies who privileged a movie no one understood and cared about above the choice of the people, or something…

I can't remember what movie France chose to send, but I can't blame them for sending something they thought had a better shot at winning. As much as I love Carax, I doubt it's the kind of movie that would get much love from the Academy. Wasn't it the year of the triumph of Argo?

Dumplings

Netflix is available in the UK, and they were promoting House of Cards fairly heavily there.
I think they're also planning to sell the shows to foreign markets the way a normal studio/network would.

Hasn't she already? One of the only things I know about her is her appearance "as herself" in Louie, one of the bits she did in the Comedy Cellar seemed to go that way.

I'm partial to http://www.youtube.com/watc… myself.
