Yes. He later said he should have come up with some way to deflect it, but didn't know what to say.

Also, who is Cory Doctorow? That's who the "I Write Like" program says my FB posts emulate. For a legal brief I wrote {{shudder}}, it says Stephen King.

Possibly rhetorical question:

Why should we care about the location, let alone more specific details, of Chelsea Clinton's wedding? Sure, I hope she has a better marriage than her parents, but why is this an event deserving of so much speculation?

You could read the Irish news instead: 8 people died in a car crash in donegal, leading to changes in drivers Ed, s developer is suing over their bank loan restructuring plan, and Roscommon upset Sligo in the Gaelic football regional finals.

No mention of chelsea.

You have a doctor who prescribes a trip to a brothel? And it's covered by your health plan? What's the co-pay?

You have said some stupid things, but this is a cake-taker. Kudos.

So yesterday is my husband's birthday, and a friend of ours, who is a physical therapist (a very good one) comes up to him at the beach club (pre-TU-ejection) and says she's going to give him a birthday back rub, or some such thing.

She proceeds to give him a rubdown, and making comments like "Oooh, [name], you're so strong and fit...".

When she finally gets her hands off him, he looked at me and asked, "What was that? That made me sort of uncomfortable."

We laughed about it, but WTF? Should I say something to her? It was just so strange. Before she came over to rub down my husband, I saw her doing another "roving massage" for this other guy, and thought to myself that it was strange, but the guy wasn't my husband, so it wasn't really my business.

So, before you ask, No, she's not hot. She's not a fat or anything, but not hot. And no, I'm not worried about my husband being interested in her.

I've gotten wood from a massage even when it was a mousey chubby lady. all real men do.

Inception
 
I thought it was twee and the story-telling was shoddy and sacrificed for gimmickry and special effects. Also, quite fun.

But the people walking out of the theater yesterday were blathering about how it was the "greatest film I've ever seen" (direct quote from pauchy 20-something dude with a lisp) and the ending was brilliant. Did no one else see that ending coming a mile away? Is this just me?

That said, I enjoyed it and I love seeing Michael Caine onscreen.

you may have heard adder is in Ireland but he seems to have internet access. I hope you aren't implying there is something wrong with being paunchy and lisping.

I'm not being defensive! You're the one who's being defensive! Why is always the other person who's being defensive? Have you ever asked yourself that? Why don't you ask yourself that?
