Randomness of the last few days:

In China Fair today, Guy1 and Guy2 are lackadasically manning the front counter.

Guy1: Between the two of us, we almost make up one entire human being.

Guy2: We're better when we're not hung over, I promise.

Guy1: Y'know tomorrow? I'm gonna quit and go work at a bed store.

Guy2: That'd be great advertising for them. See, it really works!

I learned in yoga on Wednesday that the Sanskrit word for "cow" is (at least phonetically) "gomu."

On NPR, they were interviewing a woman who hosted the Discovery Channel show Adventure Divas was studying women travel/adventurers throughout the world. A retiree called in from the mouth of the Panama Canal, where she was at sea with her husband, as she had been for several months now. She was listing the ways it had been exciting so far, and the list included the casual sentence, "We were boarded by pirates near Colombia, and we fended them off with pepper spray."

Boarded by pirates! Fear not, loyal LJers: pirates apparently still exist. But I can't say much for their heartiness these days (arr, me hearties) if they can be driven off their booty by a couple of seniors with mace.
