Billy Bob Thornton’s interview on the CBC radio show Q was such an event for me. In fact, the YouTube video of the interview officially moved him from my list of celebrities who I wouldn’t mind seeing eaten by sharks to my list of celebrities I am actively trying to get sharks to eat.

I will never forget the excitement amongst all participants. Alcohol was all you can drink, money was not an option. … Girls were also romancing each other. Some guys loved every minute of the freakiness some girls demonstrated. I have never attended a party of this magnitude. Inside the Red River Recruiting Rivalry, New York Times.

The New York Times newsroom is reportedly still undecided on whether or not to print a recent letter received from Obama, in which the president threatens to kill another helpless citizen every Tuesday and ‘fill [his] heavenly palace with slaves for the afterlife’ unless the police ‘stop the darkness from screaming.’ Media Having Trouble Finding Right Angle On Obama’s Double-Homicide, The Onion

Me: “I called you this morning.”
Co-worker #1: “I know. I didn’t pick up because I was occupied.”

——
Later…

Co-worker #2: “She was telling me about this, but I wasn’t really paying attention because I was doing something else. I don’t remember what.”
Me: “Were you occupied?”
Co-worker #2: “I haven’t been occupied in a while.”

Jim and I trekked through the mushy woods, he casually dressed (no one ever accused him of being a fashion plate) and me in a so-90s light blue suit. Teal, even, if I’m being honest. Hurrying to the scene, we barely said a word. We both took pictures of the downed plane (a two-seater, as I recall, and no one seriously injured) and set out to nab the sheriff’s deputy who was on the scene to answer a few questions. Jim asked his, I asked mine. The deputy asked us to withhold the name of one of the passengers for a reason I forget, but a good one. Jim agreed on his part, and pointed to me – ‘but you’d better ask Don Johnson here.’ “The passing of a legend …” The Evening Sun, March 6, 2009.
