291121 A couple of things:

There is generic mohito mix in the door of the 'fridge....oooooof....from WHEN?

Yeah. Ick.

Is it creepy that on my GAC application (older than the mohito mix) the "last read" was Fountainhead?

Scrabbley Yours,
Paula

291121 what happened to spring break and words? re: crime and punishment, did you know there's a MOVIE? (sorry...it's not seinfeld, but 'cheers' is nearly as good...)

297445 I'm Slothroping through the Rainbow, trying to determine if I was one part of the Schwarzcommando or whether that was just a gentle Germanic dream I had in summer camp. The issue with illicitly investigating this illiad is that I'm spreading three languages on the table and trying to feast off of one at a time. What Tyrone would've done?

Similarly, seen Sean summarily?

291121 And don't kick me out before it even begins for referring to it incorrectly.

Supporter of The Sunday Sweep

291121 Your Sunday Sweeps idea rocks. I sort of have a feeling that Sunday Sweeps would become Weekly Weeps for me though, because I would fail in keeping up with that pace. Would one be able to jump in and participate on a montly basis, or would that cut said participant out of the coffee/cookies? Because I'm not in if beverages are withheld.

The author is Richard P. Feynman. SO good.

287489 I did enjoy it; thank you for recommending it! I had a hard time with parts of it and felt they could have been left out, but I suppose their omission would have damaged the integrity of the story.
