Well, it could also be argued that a person riding a bike on a bike lane or path would open up the road to more tax paying drivers while simultaneously helping to reduce healthcare costs by exercising.

I think you made a typo in the last word of your limerick.

Well, he was a bloody cyclist, or he was after his encounter with Emma.

You're right. Only excuse is that I should have been paying attention to the work I was doing, which I clearly wasn't.

I agree with the $5 thing, with one exception. The one thing that gets me is that there's an Asian buffet I frequent in Frederick — one of my best friends and I go there every time he comes up. As a (former, for the moment) server, I get really annoyed about the subject of tipping the "servers" there, because they…

Sally Albright will always be my favorite rom com heroine of all time. She didn't change one bit, especially not for a man. She forcefully defends her world view and her sexuality to Harry on that long drive to NY. She dumps her long-term boyfriend when she realizes he won't marry her. She takes her time easing back…

See, I think that's awesome! And still jealous...why did my being a terrible waitress mean that I never got a big fat tip like that? So unfair!! :P

Yup. Equal-opportunity hot opposite-sex actors, please!

The Gigli, Batman Begins equalization

Yeah but just when we're about to give up, we'll find that the perfect rom com of our dreams was right in front of our faces all along, right? RIGHT?!

You don't know how much money this guy has. I'd say this is more "generous people are the best people in the world" than anything else. Why bring something negative to a positive story?

^This. When they replace people with the likability of Meg Ryan (and hell, earlier on, Doris Day) with freaking Jennifer Aniston and Katherine Heigl, you've got a problem.

The only way the B1G will ever win a football championship.

What happened? Meg Ryan got collagen lip injections, making her unrecognisable as the girl-next-door we loved so dearly. And then Nora Ephron died.

I sometimes wonder if our economic and political situations don't have something to do with this. People's appetite for seeing well-off people end up happily ever after tanked around the time the economy did (plus the war, picking up speed). We flocked to irreverent humor instead - something to laugh about.

I knew my fringe-trimming skill wasn't for nothing!

I think I may have seen somewhere here that if your gonna keep Texas, you have to keep Cali. Can anyone confirm this?
