I say, Doctor, what say you of this Botanical Impossibility?
"Super late night at work this evening. Lots of difficulties leave me very tired." God, do I know. The word "readying" above looked at first like "re-a-dying," which means it is time to pack it in, evaluation of crappy memos finished--or not. A greeting card announcing "Our sympathies are with you in this difficult time" would be appropriate about now. Enough bitching. Pike queried: "Where, exactly, in San Diego is it that the maple forests get down with their deciduous selves and put on the fireworks display...?" We do have plentiful liquid ambar trees where folks have had enough sense to plant them; they change their leaves in a mapleish way. Yes, that is "ambar" with an "a," just like "fendar" with an "a." You get an A- minus for this entry, Pikey. :)— September 27, 2009 3:44 a.m.

"Norwegian Fish Club Odin and Sons of Norway Lodge" is where Vlad hangs out, when he's not at "The 'Pit."— September 27, 2009 1:27 a.m.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBq5DTdaR... WTF?!!!! "SDaniels, the hostess of Veronica's Armpit..." Heh, heh, heh! I actually worked as a hostess as a teen--not for long! Vlad the inhaler, mildmannered ENT pharm rep by day, big effin' sword-wielding protector of all humanity by night!— September 27, 2009 1:25 a.m.

"Veronica's Armpit" is a classy dive bar, inhabited by various noirish characters?— September 27, 2009 12:31 a.m.
Furry Children
"Veronica's Armpit;" singular, henceforth "VA" for short. What were the names you came up with for another phony story? There was a 'Mary Blankenship'--I liked that a lot. So Peyton place-y. But we need a framework here. A plot outline. Perhaps rickeysays or anyone reading cares to step in and make some suggestions, too.— September 27, 2009 12:29 a.m.
My Entirely Fictional Affair With Liza Minnelli - Part One
Sarandon is actually married to Robbins. Ever'body knows that, refried; they are also bigtime activists, and have done quite a few plays together :) Did you know Jamie Lee Curtis is or was married to Christopher Guest? I like the whole CS'er 'romance' bit. We should work it into "Condo."— September 27, 2009 12:23 a.m.
Furry Children
I think we should have at least kept Veronica's armpits. Frankly, I only read a couple of the posts in order to write mine, so you'll have to decide which characters stay, refried.— September 27, 2009 12:19 a.m.

...and no studly stick-shifting men, or Charlie-Chan-speaking mystery fellows? :)— September 27, 2009 12:17 a.m.
My Entirely Fictional Affair With Liza Minnelli - Part One
Heh heh. Interesting, via radio transmission. Unless you are referring to Costner's character's reaction to finding out about Sarandon's character's sleeping with Tim Robbins' character.— September 27, 2009 12:01 a.m.
Furry Children
Well, there you go. rickeysays has obliterated at least one character, and the path is a little clearer.— September 26, 2009 11:34 p.m.
