I don't understand the appeal.

I don't understand how someone could not find that appealing. KK might be the most annoying person on the planet, but that thing she's dragging around is a work of art.

Apparently for art dealers it's not the most significant piece out there.

"It's a work of art. It's something that will go down in history, for real it will," Puff said when Jen's famous badonkadonk. "I mean, that thing is just incredible, man."

Asked if Jen felt threatened by the famous Kardashian rear, Puff replied emphatically:

"No! No way! No disrespect to Kim and Kanye, but that thing right there, that thing is something special."

Think You Drink a Lot? Not Compared to the Top 10 Percent

Some basic conclusions:

- The median consumption is 3 drinks per week among those who do drink (tossing out the 30% who don't drink at all.) That means...
- The top 10% of drinkers account for more than half of all alcohol consumed in the U.S. And that means...
- According to Cook, "... the heaviest drinkers are of greatly disproportionate importance to the sales and profitability of the alcoholic beverage industry. If the top decile could be induced to curb their consumption to that of the next lower group (the ninth decile) then total ethanol sales would fall by 60%."

:yikes:

How come when someone asks you where you got your beautiful shirt, and you tell them DI, they're revulsed. But when someone asks you where you got your cute dirndl, and you tell them the flea markets of Paris, they find you charming? I guess foreign junk is more exotic than american junk.

So just tell them everything is from the flea markets in Paris. Problem solved.

Don't listen to him, KL. He is telling you to lie. While I expect such boorish behavior from JL, you're better than that.

Cool, the HG answers text messages...

Anyway strait from food we went to a devotional where Elder Bednar of the quorum or the 12 apostles and his wife spoke to us. Elder Bednar likes to do the “Q” and “A” thing when he speaks with people. He passed out 700 cell phones, and a number showed up on on the big screens. Elder Bednar told us to think of questions that we would like to ask him and text those questions to that number. Now he did not read the question that I had asked, but I did have a question in mind, and honestly I was not expecting it to be answered. None of the questions that Elder Bednar answered even came close to what my question was, but I did get an answer to my question. so I wrote down the answer to my question and just as I was thinking, well it is cool that I got my answer but that was just me thinking about it for a log time, and I finally thought up an answer that worked. Just as I thought this Elder Bednar comes in and says something like, there are hundreds of questions that I did not get to answer, but the Holy Ghost has answered them for you, that is a miracle in and of its self. This blew my mind I do not know why it did, but it did. I thought that it was really cool to think that the answers to spiritual questions come from the spirit and each time they are answered it is a miracle!

On an unrelated note, when did 'reach out ' replace 'contact ' or 'call '?

And when did everybody's diets turn into a "journey?" As in "thank you all for supporting me on my weight loss journey?"

Since the advent of reality TV.

I wonder if it is time to set an unofficial "no spoiler tag needed" rule for CS.

I can't decide if I feel worse for the people who still watch The Walking Dead or those who still play fantasy football. Anyone who does both isn't worthy of sympathy.
