    You've also got to have style, yo.

    Good night last night, but boy, am I tired. Ah well. I'm excited because I get to wear this shirt to school today:

    You mean I can't role model my way to a better resume by mentoring under-privileged Vegas dancers, Baraka_Guru?

    Jesus fuck...at least hyphenate the sonvabitch. You can use the superfluous one in "under-privileged." Damn it, Fremen, you're killing me here.

    Fremen, if you wake up one day and your username is changed to "Smalls" or something similar, you can thank Baraka_Guru.

    Nice one!

    It's a sad thing now, though, there are actual kids who have no idea who Babe Ruth was, and couldn't care less.

    That's nothing. There are kids who have no idea that Tim Horton was actually a hockey player, not just a purveyor of coffee and donuts. He played 24 seasons in the NHL but only lived to see the 10th year of his now-legendary donut empire.

    today in nursing school, we learned how to restrain a man (or a woman, but in this case it was a man) by tying his wrist restraints to the bed using a simple but effective half bow knot.
    i think it's about time i switched.

    There is a substantial difference between telling readers to "do X" vs. telling them "you will do X."

    Got all my work done in advance of tomorrow. I feel good about that. They just put a sour biere de garde on at one of my favorite bars. So tempting!

    Okay, I don't mind a couple of occurrences of "drill down" as a metaphor for getting to more specific details in a matter, but we don't need it on every goddamn page.

    I had never heard of Tim Horton as even a chain of food purveyors (somewhere in Canada and the east coast) until lately on this board and probably never been closer than 300 miles to one of them. Didn't know until this post until there was a actual person they were named after; my knowledge of hockey players real or otherwise is Wayne Gretsky and Happy Gilmore.

    Baraka_Guru, I feel like you influenced my game. Some of the categories? Famous Canadians, Book Learnin', Cats, Music Class, and In the Dictionary.
