Ah, I loved me some big hair and layers of clothing.  Should have bought stock in Final Net (or "Final Helmet" as we used to call it).

Good news:
Managed to get the stray kittens to eat out of my hands

If you've ever mucked out a horse stall you'd know how accurate that is.

I'm trying to fill myself with Orvieto right now

You're thinking of a different engine.

I'm surprised the pitch didn't make people yaw.

Arthur Pewty?

Wasn't Sporadic Actor a David Bowie song?
