"Remember, with my 51 percent stake you get my connections in the fake pubic hair and tweed jacket spaces - you won't get that from anyone else here."

Sounds like something from a George Saunders short story.

I'ts worth the couple quarters to play, because at home, laying the monitor down at just below waist height so you can push up against that short end is a real hassle.

As long as the balloon animals are properly cooked, there is minimal chance of worms.

Yes, yes - the situation in familiar. Oh, it's not me - but I know him. He's a doll.

Reading these on Sunday and watching the handle get turned to fill the sausage casings is worth the price many times over. Back in the day (Westword in the 90s) this was "haha, funny take on that rascally opposition." Now it's "heehee - this really describes the existential threat perfectly!"

I was excited to tour usgs when I started with my current employer. They spun off from SRI, and they used to be right next door to USGS. I think most of the old stuff is still there. I hope so.

Eat a burrito. Good chance for a causality experiment!

I'm checking this out when I'm in MP in two weeks. I know the property's been sold, but I'm hoping this is still there.
