The Old Hack

http://egscomics.com/comic/tsos-41 I feel tempted to ask Dan what he has been smoking, but...

It does.

[Content note: Pet illness.] My wife's cat Saki is struggling with a very serious infection. Saki was born with a noticeable overbite and it has made her very prone to infections in her mouth and throat. She has been on Prednisol treatments for a rather long time now, something which concerned her vet because of long term issues but alternate treatment methods did not yield good results and without it the poor thing was just so miserable. We have been aware that this might shorten Saki's life but accepted the tradeoff so she would at least have a good life until her time came. We just hadn't expected that it might come this fast. She might still survive for now, but right now it isn't looking good. Both I and my wife are stressing over this and I've had some trouble sleeping.

Why would I do anything so moronic as that? Death is not being irresponsible. He is performing a necessary and even vital service. Or possibly a post-vital one.

They need to get hold of that Wotch woman and get her behind bars. What she does is just plain reckless and abusive.

I remember him. He was surrounded by scandals. Surely the most scandal haunted president of all time. He brought a locker room atmosphere to the Oval Office. A blemish on its reputation it may never live down. I bet he also used locker room talk, which is so unforgivable that he should have been impeached for it. Then it got worse. See? He was so unbelievably unpresidential. Surely the United States will never see a president who is more unprofessional and undisciplined than that.

I most certainly do. I have admired her ever since she stole the Mason-Dixon line. That is impressive. Especially since 1) it only appears on maps and 2) no-one can even agree on precisely where it is supposed to lie.

But where in the world is Carmen San Diego?

Good. Good. Let the greed flow.

Look, don't come here with that nonsense. It is the sort of thing that radical commie Henry Ford liked to do.

As Vyacheslav von Pehle so wisely said about this: "What this country needs is a short victorious war to stem the tide of revolution." Though I am almost completely sure that he was not referring to Japan.

The Ferengi would disagree. As the 97th Rule of Acquisition states, "Enough... is never enough."

Look, I told your descendants that it was not a good idea to throw bearers of ill news to the crocodiles and that all they would accomplish was to filter the most dedicated postmen out, but would they listen? Nooooooo.

Me too. Usually the times between when I wake up and when I go to sleep.

Enough is the enemy of extreme.

Thank you. I do try.

That is too fine a distinction for my poor little brain. Still, I bow to your superior wisdom that you so generously hand down from on high.

Accepted. Thank you.

EXCEPT THAT SAM SPECIFICALLY STATED THAT IT WAS. Good Lord. And you even refer to that page. Don't you think Sam would have noticed if it had stopped working and he suddenly had to use disguises to present as female now?

Like using the magic mark Box gave him, which he HAS been using uninterruptedly until now?

I am sure it will never ever allow a fanatical religious elite to oppress and persecute people basing its arguments solely on bigotry and false interpretations of the Bible. We must defend our right to keep slaves! FOR FREEDOM! "That was actually not a bad line. It just needs to be reworked a little. Maybe made to sound a bit more colloquial." ~Arnold Schwarzenegger

Thank you! Could you maybe edit these rules into the first post in the thread? Or if you would allow it, I could do it as well.
