Sentences of the week:

1. "Occasionally someone would ask to see 'the baby' and when I opened the blanket, would leap back shrieking, 'What is that?! A dinosaur?' Apparently, the world is full of educated adults with mortgages and stock portfolios who think that people are walking around grocery stores with dinosaurs in their arms." Wesley the Owl, Stacey O'Brien

2. "Mark brought shame upon the family after he signed up for the local community college's Clown Program. He says the program will put him into the clown fast track, but he's now dead to us." JPod, Douglas Coupland

3. "'We’re having a contest – we’re trying to see if there’s any way to hold a knife and walk across a room and not look psycho.'
'And?'
'It's impossible.'" Same book as #2


What can I say? These quotes are funny. I do think, though, that you can walk across a room with a knife and not look psycho. (It has to be a butter knife.)
