Change the World USED to be on my list but then I got sick of it. Like, 10 years ago and I STILL can’t listen.

Jester and friends, I just wanted to prepare all of you that I have just sent a picture of myself via your e-mail address. Please don’t lose your mind or your wits when you see the picture! I will be calling in on tomorrow evening for sure. Please tell Britt and Gina not to have any hot flashes as there is enough of me to go around. Jester, I hope you don’t mind and I want to be sure I sent it to the correct e-mail address, which is [redacted to prevent spam] Thanks,The Doctor PS. Remember, I am The Thing!

“Have you seen my…[insert any noun here]”

were you seriously going to let us insert any noun in ~there~?

i’m honored and yet disturbed by the opportunity.

Mr. Fabulous - I could only pick 8 songs. She’s #9.

ginamonster - I totally love that song. I played it on the radio about a million times, but can still listen to it on repeat.

Absurdist - Umm. Sure.

hello - Have I ever given you the impression I’m passionate about equal rights and free speech? Weird.

othurme - Of course you can answer that question now, when you’re not sitting in my driveway, in my car, waiting to drive somewhere for dinner.

The Doctor - I expected a particular type of photo from you, and you didn’t disappoint. I’m sure the girls are just absolutely speechless.

Danny - Well, if you insist…

jester, speechless wasn’t my reaction…I think “snort” covered it.

I bought the Phenomenon soundtrack and listened to that song a lot. I still love the philosophy behind it. But when I discovered Jewel’s cover of “Have a Little Faith in Me” on that same CD, I forgot all about Eric Clapton.

ginamonster - Have a little faith in me is such a great song. John Hiatt’s original version is my favorite, though.

I’m not sure I have heard it. I’ll have to look it up on ITunes.

In terms of “Phrases I often say,” I’m gonna start carrying around one of those counter-clicker things, Cuz I think I start one in every 3 sentences with either “Oh,…” “Ah,…” “Well,…” or “Okay, so…”
Also high on the list is “Here’s the thing…”
