I'm 50 posts away from 2,000 - ask me anything!
The weather sucks, the Cubs just choked, and I'm procrastinating on a philosophy paper. Consult my oracle of wisdom. :P

3. You should be fine, as long as you post as many kitty pictures as you can.
They seem to be popular around here. :D

5. Good question.
Put on some relaxing music, sit back in a nice overstuffed chair, nurse a snifter of brandy, and idly tug at your ascot. :P

7. Oh, sorry.
I thought I was speaking to George Plimpton for a moment. :P

In that case, go to the nearest bar, and get totally hammered. Pretend you're in Boston! :D

13. Anything, eh? Ok.
Do you believe that Dick Cheney has wet dreams about Marlin Perkins, the Mutual-of-Omaha guy who used to wrestle crocodiles on tv?

Also, as long as I'm in town: is it true that Carol Mosely Braun will replace Lance Armstrong next year for the Tour d'France? Rumors abound that she's bulking up even as we speak.

22. Whether one can change one's race.
It's rather complex, the angles I'm going at.

19. What's so cool about the Cubs and what's your paper about?
Philosophy. I took only two semesters of that, but did well. Can your friends on DU help?:shrug:

26. What's so cool about the Cubs?!?
As if that isn't obvious! They play in the greatest ballpark in the history of the world, have the greatest, most loyal, most knowledgeable fans anywhere, and every once in a while, shock us with a heartbreakingly awesome season.

As for the paper, eh. See above.

33. Yeah, I know the feeling.
I have a couple days to decompress, but then I have a couple papers due, then finals in two weeks, so it's going to ramp up pretty quick.

35. Ugh
I'm so glad I graduated already. When's the big day for you?

We've got all our students getting ready to go home for the summer - that's going to be nuts. But less stressful than schoolwork.

Good luck on them finals.

28. No.
Don't like peas as a general rule. Don't like cooked vegetables as a general rule, either. Raw and uncooked veggies for me! :D
