Ditto---Kitchen. Batteries. Billy has his own junk drawer in his armoire for all the stuff he wants to just toss somewhere and not have me move/put away/file/or store for him. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I love clever banter and that was seriously lacking in the first 2-3 episodes. The last few, as prevoiusly mentioned, have been chalk-full of it and I've really enjoyed it.

Iced Venti vanilla soy latte.

Ooo. I loved Hair, too. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I'm a planner. And I generally can't stand being surprised. But, every once in a while I surprise the hell out of others with my spontaneity. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I'm with you now. Last night's episode was the best yet! Hilarious! (Except for that one part) I really, really enjoyed it. Over the past three episodes I've really enjoyed the quality in writing, production, etc. I think where the show failed was in the first two episodes. They were too introductory & lacked a lot of the funny & thoughtful quips. While I appreciated the show enough to keep watching, my guess is most people did not. Far be it for me to give advice to the talented writers, but I will anyways: I just think if you don't catch your audience right from the beginning you stand a big chance of loosing them altogether. Having said that, I really, really hope the show continues by some grace. Again, the last three episodes have been superb. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

He. He. Funny. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I'm embarrased to admit it since it's always everyone's favorite... But, fine! Sound of Music is my favorite, too. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I haven't been to Vegas, and Billy and I keep saying we'd love to go so....

I also LOVE Phantom. Les Miserables, sadly, is one I haven't seen/wish I'd seen. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

It's true. It's true. It's not so crazy, though. Studies have shown pets tend to bond more with owners of the opposite sex. Frankly, I don't know whether it's so true or not. Our animals (two males & a female) all seem to bond equally with Billy & I and don't really care who's petting them/playing with them/feeding them as long as they're getting attention.

That's Sabre & Zoe' to a T. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Oh...my...gosh! Yes, I too dissected a cat, people. And wouldn't you know?--All of the cats were black except one...one, sweet all-white kitty cat and THAT is the one my lab partners choose. Then they named it...Snowball. I wanted to vomit. Instead, they kept cracking jokes until I couldn't help but laugh at the situation. And then I got over it.

I think we would have been excellent study-buddies. The naughty mnemonics always worked best for me, too. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Well, there you go. For me, it just always seemed obvious what to write down and what wouldn't be on the test. Unfortunately, being that I was taking so many courses at once and all required a LOT of writing, research, etc. I had to "cut the fat" a lot. There was just no way I was going to study & remember ALL the details. But we are talking Anatomy here---Yup, seems details are quite important. Damn diagrams explaining how when you excercise, you sweat water rather than alcohol b/c the energy stored could have been alcohol had one little detail not happened in the process or something-whatever-I-can't-remember like that. I remember that much, though, b/c of course I thought, "Hey, wouldn't it have been cool if we could get a good buzz from a workout?" Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Is there anything you WON'T ask for advice on from DZ.commers?
PLFXpert replied to skydiver30960's topic in The Bonfire
You didn't do anything. I responded to your pm. I thought you were making fun of my punctuation; but in AP style, the last comma in a series is omitted. As mentioned in pm, due to my sig line, everyone likes to make fun when I make a mistake. Naturally, paranoia sets in, and I assumed you were doing the same thing. I enjoy laughing at myself, though. I make mistakes often and it's far more fun to laugh than cry. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. -
I've heard of (but never tried) Squeak's study-tip before. Scent is the strongest sensory tied to the mind (did I say that right?), afterall. Different tricks work for different people. I'm a big fan of mnemonics, myself. I put things into rhyme or sing-song; or if it's items in a series, I'll make up a sentence with each word in the sentence starting with the first letter of one of the items in the series--in order if necessary. My notes are/were always organized in timeline fashion, too, and I found that pink highlighter was a more helpful reminder than yellow. I'd read over my notes a couple times and, by the way I organized them for myself, it was almost as if I could see them verbatim in my mind when it came test-time. Repetition is always the easiest, most natural way of learning and/or memorizing, as well. For me, though, listening to the same three-hour lecture over and over would not be as effective as just re-reading my notes a couple times. I'm quite certain I'd be concentrating on other things while listening and/or spacing out. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Have you every been on the screen of a Jumbotron??

Hey man. They were like a totally cool hockey team. Who doesn't love a polar bear wearing shades? Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. -
I actually just Googled him myself, as I was curious what his political affiliation was, being that he makes fun of both major parties--though he seems to make just a little more fun of Republicans. He's a Socialist. Ahhh...memories of many readings on Karl Marx. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

A million times as a high-schooler attending the Orlando Magic & Solar Bears games. We were a wild bunch. -
Lewis Black didn't die, silly. That other guy did. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Many musicals include dancing, and that's part of the appeal for me. I love to be entertained, and I love the energy & emotion. I grew up being exposed to a lot of the arts & music, and I absolutely loved it all.

I just saw his "Red, White & Screwed" performance (I've seen most of his previous ones, too) and laughed my bootie off. I LOVE that he makes fun of both major political parties.
-
There are many I haven't seen/would love to see/wish I'd seen. Billy is NOT a fan of musicals. The only time I successfully convinced him to take me to the theatre was for Stomp. And now we've seen Stomp three times--I'll take what I can get. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

My mutti had the album, and I played it over and over when I was little, long before I actually saw the musical.
