I love that story. It was much less work, but I took in my mom's cat after she died, and oh my gosh, I'm so glad I did. He is my darling buddy boy now.

Ahhhhh! He looks like my kitty, Franklin! I adopted Franklin after my mom died, more out of a sense of obligation than an abiding love of cats, but he has become the love of my life.

Is it a reality show? I feel like I don't fully understand British TV if it's not called Downton Abbey.

That's beautiful.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

Vodka soda with lime is pretty tasty, too, and plain soda is calorie free.

Since it's based on tax dollars paid, my guess would be that Maine only receives average federal spending, but since it's fairly sparsely populated, the denominator is small enough to make the end result seem big.

That's beautiful. I want to frame it.

I'm sure there's covariability here, but as a Non-Medical Doctor but certified Master of Public Health, I just can't imagine that the authors wouldn't take into account the established correlation between being overweight early in life and an earlier onset of menarche.

A calculator and perhaps a remedial arithmetic book, as math seems so challenging for so many of them. It's servicey.

I think, THAT SCENE. I generally don't care for Keira's acting - it's like she does 95% of it with her lips, and it's distracting. BUT. She was so, so perfect for Cecilia and in the movie. I read the book, but the movie still destroyed me.

Same! I was just ... not fond of that character. But that death scene destroyed me. I must have sobbed for an hour after the episode ended. I'm not even a cryer! That was a well done and wrenching scene.

Yep. That's what I was here for. Reliving the glory of the Clinton years and whatnot.

I like this stuff so much better when it's on Homeland.

I'm hooked. I mean, it's Tami Taylor, so it was always going to happen. That said, someone other than Hayden Panettiere needs to get some on that show. Not including Scarlet's asshat boyfriend.

Thank you for working so hard and creating what is, from everything I'm reading, the strongest and smartest campaign in history. I chipped in my dollars, but I can't say thank you enough to those who dedicated their time and energy.

I spit out my soda when Rick Berg said that he's "concerned about taking care of people who can't take of themselves." AS LONG AS THEY'RE NOT BORN YET. Otherwise, all y'all folks who need help are on your own.

I cradled a bottle of Gatorade as I slept.

While I kind of agree with some posters down-thread who don't think Romney's actually super far right, I still don't want him to win because I don't want healthcare reform to be repealed (I know he said he'll keep a few parts, but it doesn't really work without the mandate, and don't get me started on motherfucking…
