I think actually the noun "bosom" is singular.  But I can't think how you'd re-write the line correctly and still retain the laugh.


Yes, excessive retentiveness can spoil a lot of fun.

And the word of the day is: SCION!

As it happens, the word SCION originally referred to an old French coin.

And an anagram of SCION is COINS.

This is the sort of information that people find endlessly fascinating, or altogether too twee for words.

Can you tell when someone is coming up to your desk by the squishy noises?

When Mr Mordden dies, the words ungrateful and motherf***er will be removed from the dictionary.

For those who might be interested in CBS' THE MENTALIST but have conflicts with other shows, CBS is rebroadcasting the season premiere on Friday night in the GHOST WHISPERER slot (8 p.m.) Just a heads up on that.

I would have liked to watch it. But i'll have a conflict every week. And i can't watch cbs online.

The show sounds a lot to me like PSYCH.

I was really looking forward to the premiere. And while i really liked parts, i was left slightly disappointed. There were a bunch of things that i did not like, especially the sylar/claire stuff. And not too thrilled about what mohinder did. And i don't really want to see maya again. And i did not like matt in africa.

I did find the whole identity of the shooter and the future peter coming back stuff quite interesting. And i'm not sure how i feel about so many characters that were dead coming back to life. I mean there were some i love who came back. But to me when you make a big deal last season about x number of people dying ... and then they are back in the first episode. Well it seems sort of odd.

The show always has so much going on. I was surprised to see Claire's dad in a cell. I love mama petrelli. I did really enjoy the hiro/ando stuff. Hiro is the best hero and so funny and cute!

It was sort of weird to me that they did not show micah or his cousin again or niki. i'd like to find out what happened there. Tracy is interesting.

I must be honest and admit that I've never heard of Percy Dovetonsils.  

After looking him up, I realize that he's just a bit before my time.

Now here's an odd one.  I'd heard of Percy before.  Der B had not.

Percy Dovetonsils was a great reason to watch The Ernie Kovacs Show.....

Well I am now in SAFE MODE because yes I have been attacked again, and I will NOT spend more money on this VY-RUSS....

No I will continue to work in SAFE MODE - with no sound and no printer and some programs not active - and then next week I will buy....an APPLE computer....yes I will become a MAC person.....

So.....32.000 posts....most of them virus free!

Thanks to all for the comments on the photos....yes it was fun, and DR GINNY (soon to be retired) - as you can tell from those small windows, we didn't even know there WAS a storm!
