Whoo-hoo, motivation!

I had an elementary school classmate named Lori Petty. Though the actress and I are the same age, she isn't the Lori Petty I went to school with.

Happy Birthday, Kurtis Blow (b. August 9, 1959)

Once we have accepted the story we cannot escape the story's fate. - P.L. Travers (9 August 1899 – 23 April 1996)

They are such good dogs! The old one is very old and wise, the young one is so smart, she's like a dog professor.

The Border Collie mix would be a good dog president. She's smart. She is four, she may not be quite old enough to run.

Both of my dogs get a litany of compliments a couple of times a day. They're dogs, though. Both have nicer temperaments than the President.

I am old enough to have watched the TV show. I've always liked him.

A few days after Murphy's death, I chanced to see an episode of "King of the Hill" (on TNT or something), the one where Hank ends up at Willie Nelson's ranch for a party. Luann's plot line was about her having trouble in beauty school because she couldn't figure out how to braid hair, which then played into the Willie…

My adult nephew likens his father (my brother-in-law) to Hank Hill, except B-i-L is in home security sales, not propane.

Tiny coworker hadn't heard of the song. She watched/listened to the video and said "This is funny!"

I ain't gonna bump no more with no big fat woman. - Joe Tex (August 8, 1933– August 13, 1982)

I make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes. - Sara Teasdale (August 8, 1884 – January 29, 1933)

Aww, man.

There is a distinct difference between having an open mind and having a hole in your head from which your brain leaks out. - James Randi (b. August 7, 1928)

A dog that died and was reanimated in the Pet Sematary walked into a bar, and asked for a drink.

The Coen Brothers already made "O Bother, Where Art Thou"

Indeed! I'm really in it for a lapel pin.
