The photog has to get them to "open up." (...What's going on here?)

Lufthansa? Can they bang my head with the cart when they deliver the food? Then look at me like it was my fault, and therefore not apologize? Deal.

This is my exact thought when my son asks me to fight (Nerf) swords. Drop what you're doing.

I'm not saying that I wish I were an amputee, but maybe, yeah. Anyways, I love the human capacity for humor.

That's it -- no more plants in my house. And those empty chip bags --- off the floor and into the trash from now on.

Before ringing the bell, the mouse looks like it's in disbelief. "Did she... Did she just shut the door? I can't believe that. ... So I'm going to ring the bell. She's making me ring the bell. Fine."

I'm not even joking: This how fun things could be if we could just stop killing each other. No politics, just human to human. Peace be with us all.

Barking_Bud, itisbananaclip,

I-risk to say: Corny, uh. Become pupils of humor.

All in favor, say "aye".

Listen , children, how the war begun,
And then to how it was won,
With the fateful ride of Miss Ludington.

Henry What's-he-worth who? ;-)

I completely understand the urge to turn in the money. Either it belongs to someone who may really need it, or it belongs to some dangerous folks. So the consequence of keeping is that either someone suffers for lack of that needed cash, or you do. In a word, it's bad karma.

Mathematically, you didn't have it before, so you don't really lose it if you turn it in. Philosophy saves the day, and your life.

I was hoping for an epic clash, shark-vs.-dolphins. :-(

Dolphins:
"Gawwwd, he's so slooow. Why are we -doing- this??"
"I kinda feel sorry for him."
"I've seen faster ice chunks."
"That's what I mean."

Shark:
"I was just looking! Sometimes I just look -- OKAY?"

There's a web page out there wherein an internist has done the math, spreading out the income over the average debt load and residency hours (usually reaching 60-80 hours per week) as well as the first years of practice, and comes up with an hourly rate that is little more than that of a high school teacher (something like $36/hour). Then the comments get pretty nasty, so I'm not in the mood to find the page.

I remember going to a derma office and never meeting the doctor. I was treated by one physician assistant, then I followed up with another P.A. in the same office who said that my skin looked much improved. PA #2 was meeting me for the first time.
