And in related news, Denise Richards is pregnant with a carouser spawn (but not, I think, Dave Navarro's spawn). Anyway, carry on.
I read something recently that said Denise Richards was a former Fleiss girl, so maybe she has connected with Navarro in the past.

Ah, Target (of course pronounced "tar-ZHAY," if we needed a reminder). I furnished my first apartment entirely from Target.

br(and it looked good, too)c

I just realized that that $350/month apartment was about the size of the one I inhabit now, and it had a view. GOD DAMMIT! Well, the furniture is improved.

Could you put something in your posts, please? A story, an interesting take on something. Humor. An insult (see how nicely I set that up for you?). Some substance, maybe? Some pictures. Anything.

I'd like to take this opportunity to ask, "What the hell happened to John Hughes?"

We're talking about the pop film genius who started his movie writing career with "Vacation" (1983), and moved on to bring us such greatness as, inter alia, the underappreciated "Mr. Mom" (1983), the sempiternal "Sixteen Candles" (1984), "The Breakfast Club" (1985), "Weird Science" (1985), "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" (1986), and "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" (1987). And I'm skipping the ones that are merely "good" (like "Pretty in Pink") in favor of the ones that merit "great."

In other words, in four short years, the man brought us the most quotable and era-defining comedies since Neil Simon or Billy Wilder.

Then his career apparently ended. Nothing post-1997 even approaches his prior work, even considering the commercial success of the "Home Alone" (1990, 1992, 1997, 2002) or "Beethoven" (1992, 1993, 2000, 2001, 2003) franchises. He's been living off remakes of far better movies like "101 Dalmations" and "Flubber" and even "Miracle on 34th Street."

Is it fair to blame Anthony Michael Hall's puberty?

Consider it a 2,000-year-old recipe for an amuse-bouche. Remember to bring your own dip next time.

Edited to Add: It helps if you close your eyes and imagine that the celebrity chef is actually Nigella Lawson.

When did a few minutes with God do you any harm? Were you any worse for being there for a short time? You were even fed.

And God is not for sale (either as a condo as a time share). But if you'd like to talk about the terms on which God is available, let me know. We can have some coffee and chat.

Like, full on mass, with wafers and stuff? Or just a prayer from the dude in the collar?

Non-adherents are not obliged to participate in either, I note, they are just supposed to sit quietly and not roll their eyes. And feel free to sip your coffee if necessary to keep your face from bashing into your presumably still empty plate.

Waiting through an unadvertised full mass for my grub would probably tick me off a bit.

When I'm hungover and need coffee immediately. Instead, I got a large spoonful of god. Actually, it wouldn't have bothered me at all if someone had mentioned it before I got there. I was god-ambushed.

And I never try to sell people Not-god, so I deserve the same respect.

Keep in mind that every porno that's filmed there after the priest attended is going to have to be re-blessed by Larry Flynt.

This is also why a sentence consisting of mostly lowercase letters is easier to read than one in all uppercase --- the shape of the word in lowercase type is distinct and unique,

BUT ALL UPPERCASE WORDS ARE ALMOST PERFECTLY SQUARE AND MEANING MUST BE DERIVED FROM THE INDIVIDUAL LETTERS, NOT THE SHAPE, SLOWING THE RATE OF READING COMPREHENSION.

This is why legislatures that call for vitally important contractual and waiver language to be placed in all caps, as opposed to bold, italic, or colored ink, are fundamentally misinformed about typography and visual perception.

(Pet peeve.)

I'm not sure why this is being touted as new research. They were teaching, in speed-reading courses years ago, this very concept. There were speed-scanning readers that projected lines of text at varying speeds, and they would demonstrate that comprehension would remain steady even as they jumbled the words, like they are jumbled above. (They were trying to show students that you recognize groups of words, and groups of letters, not merely letters.)

If it were as easy as medication, there wouldn't be so much of it going around. What you'll have to do is behavior modification. Have someone tie your hands, or handcuff you to your desk/chair and then purposely put random typos into your posts. See how long you will struggle against the bindings before you acquiesce. Over time you'll find that you'll be able to post with typos/misinformation and jsut let it go.

No ruse. I just think you do better work when you're stretching for something new. You can still document my life in pictures - just, vary the theme or something. Geeze, even the Bagels challenge me sometimes.
