...if he didn't fully understand where I came from, he understood who I was now -- he knew how well done I liked my steak, knew the color of my toothbrush, the expression I made when I realized I'd forgotten to roll up my car window before it rained.

One of the lessons learned from 22 July is that we have to take seriously all those people who take part in debates on the Internet, expressing extreme views, and then meet them, discuss with them, bring them into the open. We have not used bans or u...
[663 finds his apartment is flooded] Cop663: Did I leave the tap running, or is the apartment getting more tearful? I always thought it would cope okay. Didn't expect it to cry so much. When people cry, they can dry their eyes with tissues. But when ...
Bloat: Uh-oh. Darla. Nemo: What's wrong with her? Gurgle: She wouldn't stop shaking the bag. [close up of the dead fish in the photo] Bubbles: Poor Chuckles. Deb: He was her present last year. Bloat: Took a ride on the porcelain express. [Dentist flu...
