"Plagiarize!
Let no one else's work evade your eyes.
Remember why the good Lord made your eyes,
so don't shade your eyes,
but plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize!

Only be sure always to call it, please, 'research.'"

I'll trade you for the fleet of helicopters flying over our area repeatedly for the last week, flying so low that the sounds ricochet between the buildings of my apartment complex like multiple demented pinball balls, driving me to wear earplugs most of the time. Can't stand the reverberations!

"That Friday night, he was working late,
the night the old boy was to meet his fate.
There was a lotta hate In that.38 for JR.

Some goody two shoes done blowed him away!

If it's a case of jaded love,
Kristin coulda done it, that poor soiled dove.
She coulda shot JR."

When my car was broken into many moons ago, they cleaned out my spare change drawer (the ashtray), snagged my spare jacket and a few other bits, but left behind my decades-old iPod that was sitting in plain view. I was insulted! It still worked, but also had to be plugged in because of bad battery.

Harsh? It was a pun. A landing, like a set of stairs might have. Sigh. If you have to explain . . .

"Thanks for doing that!" He screamed in shock, which made ME scream in response, and he tore across the yard, leapfrogging the high-piled snow drifts. I'm guessing we're not getting shoveled out during the NEXT snowstorm. You try to be nice . . .

It's 5:54 am and I just scared the shit out of the poor guy sent out by the HOA to shovel the snow away from the windows and doors on our ground-level townhouse. As he passed by the window I keep opened a crack even in the middle of winter (polar bears r us), I called out from the dark room,

Well, how about a retired English teacher's input?

This is a double negative: no one can't seem to come up with a comment (ie, one CAN seem to come up with)

Retired English teacher hugs you!

"There's a road I have to follow,
a place I have to go.
Well, no one told me just how to get there,
but when I get there I'll know.

Because I'm taking it

step by step,
bit by bit,
stone by stone,
brick by brick.
Step by step,
day by day,
mile by mile . . . "

According to weather.com, we're getting a blizzard tomorrow with 14" of snow in my area. Also, according to weather.com, the lowest the temp will fall over the next three days (showing hour-by-hour temps) is 35 degrees.

So . . . lots of rain, then?

Can you explain to us folk who don't live in NYC, don't ride buses and who can't seem to find the alt text I just KNOW you didn't forget to add, what this 'neat trick to free buses and money for street transformations everywhere' is?

I'm sure Tay has better things to do than make clothes that cover this ass's, er, ass. She's busy writing another album or six.
