Yet when Andy Kaufmann as Latka Gravas' alter ego referenced Elvis way back when, it indicated an obnoxious embodiment of the Playboy philosophy....

Maybe there is progress in the arts...nah.

It's really depressing when a really fabulous vacation ends, only to have to go back to a job you don't like. At all.

Poor Red! So how was the hol, or is that answered elsewhere?

I'll go for Tallulah's engraving, Mug. Great idea!

Oh I'm probably just being whiney.

Our trip was really amazing...just really relaxing and fun. I would highly recommend Royal Caribbean to anyone who hasn't been.

You didnt heave Blue over the side did you Red?
echos myron like a siren
with endurance like the liberty bell
and he tells you of the dreamers
but he's cracked up like the road
and he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load

You didn't see Blue heave too much over the side did you Red?
I'm not concerned about the very poor.

You didn't miss it. Feb 14th, every year.

I'm totally falling apart.

I went to the eye doctor this morning, and she dilated my eyes...meaning my vision is really messed up, and I get to wear these hideous grandma-sunglasses when I go outside. I talk with a bit of a lisp and occasionally think I sound mentally challenged because I have a big nasty canker sore on my tongue. And to top it off, I walk with a bit of a limp because my right calf is sore from cramping up during the night.

Would someone please tell my body that I'm 24, not 70?

This morning you've got time for a hot, home-cooked breakfast! Delicious and piping hot in only 3 microwave minutes.

You've got your Sussexes, Essexes, Wessexes and even Middlesexes. So why do you never see Norsexes?

Cos after all that Viking raping and pillaging it sounded a little too close to the (pubic) bone.

I turned a somersault in an art museum today. Three, in fact. (Three somersaults, not three museums.) When they put out those beds, they're just asking for it, really...

Nah, I just kind of felt like doing it. I was alone...it was sort of the same impulse as touching the artwork. Which I did once at the MoMA when I was ten. I still remember how it felt...it was a cloth woven out of human hair...

You really need to run through the L'ouvre someday. All the best artsy movie characters do it.

Dude! I know! I need to find two hot guys that I'm in a love triangle with though, and those are harder to find than you might think. And it's even harder when they have to know about each other's existence. Maybe a pair of best friends--did Jules and Jim ever run through the Louvre?
