Language Liberalism Freethought Birds
Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.
Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time.
The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church.
If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.
It's bad enough when they say "Stay tuned for more <insert name of show here>" and you sit through the commercials to get nothing but credits. But I don't think they should be allowed to say it when absolutely nothing of, oh, let's say, Scrubs NBC!!! actually follows the commercials and instead you are catapulted straight into that Andy Parker thing.

I used to teach Russian and Ukrainian, and some basic English, to civil servants. Now I teach Russian at a local continued-learning institute. I dabble in Gaelic and Welsh. I'm am amateur photographer and I love birding (in a small way). I'm a Progressive, and a Freethinker, and I know Evolution is a fact - that's FCD, Friend of Charles Darwin (look down the sidebar). I read a lot, and follow women's college basketball. Also I love astronomy, though I'm a rank amateur at it. Most of all, I like living in the reality-based community...

<-- Older Post ^ Home Newer Post -->Just had that exact experience with Scrubs on the DVR. My daughter kept rewinding and replaying it looking for the "more" Scrubs. That may well be a violation of some sort of truth in advertising.
