I disagree. You couldn't entertain us if you did.

A phrase popped into my mind.
"Rear Guard Fleet Operations"...
Bwahahahaha!
Sometimes I feel the same as your tiny-fonted thought, but then have to say FUCK IT! The people MUST be entertained no matter what the cost is...

You'd think that eventually I would learn NOT to google something when someone says "not to Google ______" at work. And just let it wait tell I get home.

Was it at the MnG last year? It sounds like the tails, which is my traditional Thursday night suit. I might have to switch this year because it was too hot to put the layers on until around 8 and I missed a bunch of people.

Frighteningly, I actually bring 6 suits in dry cleaner bags out there, so the suit you saw was on it's first night of use. I only bring one top-hat however, so it gets caked with dust by the end of the week.

And I told you not to Google Santorum, but do you listen? :roll:

On the plus side, googling something and then clicking on a link helps keep the result in the number one spot . . . or so I'm told. :twisted:

So between Eric and Savannah the number 1 link for Santorum has nothing to do with Rick Santorum......

Or does it?

The approximate and abbreviated history:
In response to comments made by then-Senator Rick Santorum that were criticized as "anti-gay" by gay rights groups and some politicians,American columnist and gay rights activist Dan Savage initiated a campaign in 2003 to associate Santorum's surname with a sexual act. Savage's effort culminated in the creation of a derogatory word association, regarded as vulgar by some observers.

During an interview in April 2003 with the Associated Press about moral relativism and the Catholic Church sex abuse cases, Santorum had argued that consenting adults do not have a constitutional right to privacy, and that certain acts—specifically polygamy, adultery, and sodomy—undermine society and the family. Savage subsequently asked his readers to coin a definition for "santorum" which would offend the Senator, announcing the winner as "the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex". He created a website called "Spreading Santorum" to promote this definition, which became a prominent search result for Santorum's name on several search engines. He offered in 2010 to take the website down if Santorum donated US$5 million to Freedom to Marry, a group advocating legal recognition of same-sex marriages.

Santorum said in June 2011 that the situation "comes with the territory," and that "it's unfortunate some people thought it would be a big joke to make fun of my name."

...and if that's not any mortal's crowning achievement Dan started the "It Gets Better Project".

Think what you may about him politically but his "Savage Love" column is, more often than not, the perfect balance between a common sense approach to sexuality and great humor.

I heard a review of Torchwood's upcoming season on Fresh Air today by David Bianculli.
OH MAN! I cannot wait to see it!
He said the plot and acting are very STRONG and thinks very highly of it.

Wow I came to not post and I learned something I probably never cared to know! So now I will have to come back again to not post at a later time!
A plan is what you vary from.

Destiny Lounge 3D will be at Bradbury and 3:15 this year as a part of the 404: Village Not Found group of camps! Come see us!

I can only imagine what they'll actually get from the mined info. Dick jokes, double entendres, cleaning tips for used sex toys, etc.
Yeah. Gotta be a HUGE market for that.
Maybe for the bacon folklore...
