Frankly I have no idea why I’m laughing so hard after reading that list…but it makes me feel good anyway, so there!

now, see, that’s the kind of reading that could turn me on.
The science, I mean…not so much the poetry.
The quest continues for a woman who can use the word “ophiophagy” in casual conversation.

You know, it’s not that often a straight line like this just walks up and jumps on your lap.

Yeah, too bad I couldn’t figure out the html formatting for “served on a silver platter.”

I play this game, but with names for my imaginary band and our imaginary debut album (Parallel Evolution definitely makes the cut for upbeat indie pop, Shamans As Neurotics sounds like more pretentious whiny art-rock, and Death of a Society is of course bad pop-emo that thinks it’s totally punk rawk!!).
The current frontrunner is an upbeat punk band called “Lunatic Soup,” which is old Australian slang for an alcoholic beverage. Our debut album will probably be called “Never Rest Umbrellas On Escalator Steps” (courtesy of the New York Metropolitan Transit Authority).
