Question: Are they in the Ikea store at the time? - In America it's possible to subpoena a dog.
- C3PO and R2D2 do not speak to each other off-camera because the actors don't get on.
Besides which, they are fictional robots.- You're 10 times more likely to be bitten by a human than a rat.
Be warned!- Giant squid eat each other - especially during sex.
Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew!!- The Very Hungry Caterpillar has sold one copy every minute since its 1969 publication.
J has a new Hungry Caterpillar outfit, BTW.- A towel doesn't legally reserve a sun lounger - and there is nothing in German or Spanish law to stop other holidaymakers removing those left on vacant seats.

Evening thoughts
Guilt by association sucks. Especially when no one is guilty of anything in any event.
Many people are stupid. I hate stupidity.
I also hate waiters who accidentally drop raspberry sauce on the seat of my chair while I am in the bathroom changing Mr. Poopy-pants.
On that subject, I hate bathrooms that are not equipped with change stations.
Raspberry sauce on the butt of a brand-new pair of tan corduroy pants is an ugly shade of purple.
When a raspberry sauce stain on the butt of a brand-new pair of tan corduroy pants is rubbed with a bar of Zest soap, the stain remains entrenched in the pants, but it turns a very ugly shade of deep green (almost teal, but uglier), even after it has been rinsed.
My baby is sweet, even when he screams.
Even the most tired baby will not sleep when his diaper is poopy.
Weddings make even the smartest and most logical person nutty.
Crepes are yummy.
J is not a big fan of corn.
In his little black, red and white tuxedo, with two small bits of shredded turkey hanging out of his mouth, J looks like a vampire. It makes me laugh!
Pepsi is not an adequate substitute for Coke.
It is bedtime.

And the award for "Inattentive" goes to ...
... the student who posted a question to the MA1 tutor about a problem found in the FA2 textbook!
Yes, boys and girls, it is always a good idea to make sure you are reading the text that actually goes with the course you are currently taking. Otherwise, stuff like the corresponding lesson notes and audio lectures may not make much sense to you.
Just my little suggestion.

Environmentally sound
A motorcycle. A horse. A dinosaur. A dolphin. A dragon. An airplane. A kangaroo. Or something else.
Expensive, but...a slightly older J would have fun for sure. Besides, there's the whole use of recycled products thing, of which I am a fan.
Kangaroo!!!

I have concluded that...
...it is impossible to feel happy while suffering from a chest cold.
...I love my family, and I don't want to antagonize them.
...it is best to stay away from people when I feel miserable.
...sometimes, you are better off not answering the phone.
...I would like to take a trip, far, far away.
...tears may be futile, but sometimes they are unavoidable.
...my husband is more moody than am I when he is under the weather.
