Negator:
Ken, do you celebrate Yom Kippur? Do you have a crew? Is there a crow's nest?
9:09am
Ken:
I have a rabbinical exemption for Yom Kippur because I have nothing to atone for. Unless I'm misunderstading the meaning of "atone." Or "rabbinical."
9:10am
JJZ:
Can you celebrate a day of atonement?

9:32am
Terry:
Hey if you were incarcerated in concrete bomb shelter with no bathroom for weeks at a time you'd walk around in your own poop too! Chickens get a raw deal. Check out Blue Andalusians.

Jeff M:
So now how do you feel, mister man, with all your glee about the Global Economic Collapse, now that it's actually happening? ICELAND WENT BANKRUPT! And I think it's probably your fault.
Are there some Icelandic economic dirges? Is that what Sigur Rós have been singing about all this time? Because I was never sure.
What if this trouble leaks into Finland? That'd cast a pall over Humppa Day, I tell you what.
