I have to go to the bathroom.

 

I'm trying to decide exactly when the best time to go would be.

 

It's a sloooooow day at work.

Write a report on the pros and cons of going to the bathroom.

Hold a company-wide meeting on the topic and ask for opinions.

Send out an email asking for the best time to go.

Count the votes and go with the winning time.

 

I vote for 4:45pm.

Rabbit Run, Redux and most of "IS Rich" are all genius. As are his short stories.

 

Not as big of a fan as Gunter Grass, but I thought a Rally Grass icon would be a little too much.

Updike was never my cup of tea. But I’ll always grant his place in American letters, particularly with those works you named.

 

I used to enjoy reading his take on other writers in his occasional New Yorker magazine reviews. But one of them soured me on him personally forever. It’s funny the stuff that sticks in your mind. I can’t think of Updike now without thinking of that god-awful review (maybe 5 years ago?). Parts of it were jaw-droppingly, intensely homophobic. It’s like he just had to get some nasty stuff off his chest that didn’t even have to do with the novel under consideration.

Had to present my research, thus, far to the department today (grad students and faculty). Nerve wracking, but overall a lot of fun. I love talking about my data, and I love it when people have good questions and methodological (sp) suggests. Mmmmmm, scientific process. . . :D

Anybody keeping track of the number of "#2 Al Qaida" muckity mucks that this administration keeps announcing have been killed?  Seems like a lot of them.

 

And whatever happened to Osama bin Laden?

He's working at a 7-11 in inner-city Detroit.

I also miss WinoDJ. "Rex Kickass" just doesn't roll off the tongue as smoothly.

 

I usually shortened it to dj in my mind. I wonder how many shortened it to wino?
