No. Not Bonanza. I'm old, and I don't watch it, and I don't anticipate watching it when I'm officially old. Probably watch the Munsters and the Addams Family.

an echidna.

We prefer to think of it as sort of an apres vie. Bout time you showed up ::spin::

It always seems like work is like that.

I second. The minute they step over the line, they're in the fire.

Wow! This is impressive. I had a stamp collection when I was a kid that was smaller than this.

Yeah, I'd rather the machinery be unpredictable than the person running it.

What?! How dare you have a life!

True. Why must it be so difficult to be both efficient and discrete?

Explosives are more efficient. You have to consider the material you're dealing with.

Can't complain - the popcorn's always pretty good.

May I have this dance, however brief it may be?

I don't have my glasses on, and when I looked at the title real quick, I thought it said "I just got "born again porn." Now that's a genre I think it'd be interesting to see.

I didn't dispute the accuracy (or lack thereof). I said that it wasn't necessarily complimentary. Also, the only time I've ever seen the term "Sapphic" in main stream literature was in Mary McCarthy's The Group, published in 1963. And I have never heard it used in conversation by anyone, regardless of orientation. I have a funny feeling that "Achillean" will go the same way before it even arrives.

Also, seeing as one's fatal weak spot is generally referred to as one's Achilles' heel, I'm not sure that the reference is very complimentary.

Sappho was bisexual. She wrote a lot of love poetry directed at both sexes.

PBJ is the way to go. That or Eggos.

You can talk, but fish won't listen. Teleportation

I love a manual transmission. There's just this feeling of total control when you wrap your hand around that stick...

There is no "normal." The true dividing line is between those who have diagnostic codes, and those who do not - yet.

Yeah, unfortunately, there are a lot of people who either don't get into the system, or are "lost to follow up" (that's such a nice little euphemism). And the people who are stuck in denial are the ones I don't see.

Which? Why bipolar people don't take their meds, or diabetics who think they're cured? Either way, it was a response to Still Me, not you.

Well, hey! Nice to see the panda!

Oddly enough, in all my years of clinical practice, I've never had somebody who's bipolar tell me that they didn't need their meds - I've heard a lot of complaints about side effects and cost, and people not taking them for those reasons, but not that they didn't need them (unless they were manic). You know who says that they don't need their meds, and that they're cured? Diabetics who've had bariatric surgery. And they're usually "sane."

Well, good. She may have a cookie, too.
