I grew up being able help people spell my name by saying "you know, like the --- company." then it shut down:-/

Do US taxpayers get a cut of the transfer fee, what with AIG being Man U's main sponsor?

It certainly puts his criticism of the quality of science fiction writing (on the Books, Books, Books thread) in perspective.

I get that he likes geek humor, but that seems like the Mallard Fillmore of geek humor.

Armchair Designer

Anyone (i) in LA who wants a room designed by a contestant on a new series (Armchair Designer), let me know because I know someone who works on the show and she asked if anyone I knew would be interested or (ii) anywhere, who would like to be on the show, let me know. www.armchairdesignertv.com

I realize that the proposition of (ii) makes volunteering for (i) slightly less likely, but it might be fun anyway.

I may be whiffing, but I thought it was mildly amusing.

I have a low threshold for humor though. I think I laughed at a Ziggy once.

I'm a recent convert to Cyanide and Happiness. Although I think it may be cribbing a little from lawtalkers:

That site rocks. That strip isn't the funniest, but it was topical, no?

You're going to kill me for bringing this up, but I was at the "November Rain" church in New Mexico on Friday.

Whoa, slow down there maestro. There's a *New* Mexico?

I actually don't get that song stuck in my head so much anymore. These days it is the Kazakhstan national anthem. I don't know why my brain acts this way. It just does.

But it is awesome that you went to the church.
