    I didn't see the first one but my roommate said I need to. Didn't you watch the second last night or were you too busy playing with Bruno?

    The quickfire was amuse bouches from vending machine snacks! The elimination was Lost themed, and they could only shop for canned shit.

    Long Island is great, it's just the people from Long Island that are the problem.

    seriously, by the time you're giving me the lowest possible score in the section about the quantitative skills you developed in a _literature class_, it starts to look like you have a grudge.

    Well I was on my bicycle and it was in the bike lane and I only hit it's rear view mirror. The woman screamed, "YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!" (trust me, she was a low life) and some chivalrous dickhead in the van behind her started yelling at me, "Hey you, come back here!" I just turned the wrong way down a one-way street and flipped them the bird.

    Do you mean side-view mirror?

    People using the bike line as a car lane really piss me off. When I drive, I don't drive in bike lanes or cuss and honk at pedestrians who have the right of way.

    I've said it before, but I was so happy when the cops spent a few mornings hiding on a Plaza St berm, and when the light turned red, they just walked down the line of a-holes using the bike lane as a second car lane giving them tickets. They could really make some money if they just spend an hour a week doing that during rush hour.

    Huge Rave (along the lines of Em's): My BFF was just here overnight from Tortola. She did SO much shit for me because I can't walk, plus we got to do fun stuff for her and hang out. Target, Home Depot, Old Navy (for her), Fairway (both), Mexican AND Chinese food (they don't have good places there), we did my laundry, cleaned my kitchen floors, watched movies, drank wine......

    Rant: I miss her. I wish we got to do this more often

    Rant:

    * FROM SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON

    * RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL HAS LEFT SOIL CONDITIONS ACROSS THE WATCH
    AREA SATURATED. LOW PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO PUSH THROUGH THE
    LOCAL AREA SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. WHILE IT IS TOO
    EARLY TO DETERMINE THE EXACT TRACK...HEAVY RAIN IS POSSIBLE
    ACROSS THE AREA WHICH COULD LEAD TO THE POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING.

    * BETWEEN 1 TO 2 INCHES OF RAIN...LOCALLY HIGHER...IS EXPECTED TO
    FALL ACROSS THE AREA STARTING SATURDAY NIGHT AND LASTING THROUGH
    SUNDAY MORNING.
