O.O. says, "This also gives me the opportunity to make a poultice, about which I am most pleased."

O.O. says being married to him is like being married to "a waterfall with lightning in it" or "a lion with an electric guitar."

O.O. says, "Women would be a lot less nice if they were made of metal."

O.O. says, "He reminds me of a football player ... without a football team."

O.O. tried to make up some Morrisey lyrics. Here is the result (yes, he sang these to me):
"I touched his brother
who had a very dainty lilly
(if you know what I mean)
and I'm such a great florist!"

O.O. says, "Hey honey, I joined Up With People. Actually, I joined its partner organization, Down With Plants And Animals."

O.O., to Baby V: "Look at your little hands! Daddy's going to teach you how to get free Cokes out of the machine."

O.O. says, "You are the laser and I am the smoke. Together, we are the Pink Floyd laser light show of marital wisdom."

O.O. and Zorak are watching a TV commercial for a collection of 70s soul music.
O.O.: "There's Tina Turner! She doesn't look that good. She looks great now, but that's just because she's in her 50s and still looks about the same. That's like Avery Dulles, whose views did not change much, but because the Church moved left he is now considered to be on the right."
Zorak: "Did you just compare Tina Turner to Avery Dulles?"

O.O., exhausted: "When I dream about falling asleep, I dream about falling asleep while driving. And it's really pleasurable."

O.O. says, "Being crazy is expensive."

He's right, you know.

Happy 6th Anniversary to O.O. and me!

O.O. says, "General Tso had a really obnoxious, sarcastic brother named General Tso What."

I am really regretting teaching him about puns.

Yesterday, he said, "One day, when we're both in heaven and our bodies don't matter, they can put our brains in a cage and let them fight each other."

O.O. says, "The animals must think we're really stupid because we can't walk right away. But then we kill them and eat them, so it's kind of moot."

I know my husband will like this.

BBC NEWS | Satellites to monitor panda sex: "Scientists in China plan to use satellites to track pandas to learn more about their sexual behaviour.
A Chinese-US project will use Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites to monitor panda movements in a reserve in remote Shaanxi province.
It is part of an attempt to understand the panda's poor breeding record.
'Tracking them with advanced technology and observing their sex activities might help us find ways to avoid their extinction,' an official said. "

O.O. says, "Kids, 911 was a joke even in the Book of Judges."
A moment later: "In the Book of Judges, one could also say, 'Welcome to the terrordome.' In fact, I'm just going to quote PE for the rest of this lecture."

O.O. says, "Want a crazy quote for your blog?"

My husband gets the Torres situation absolutely right:
"God desired that the entire struggle to save Baby Torres become an absolute statement in favor of the value of human life, and so He removed any possibility of conflating the value of the struggle with the goodness of the consequences everyone envisioned from the birth of the apparently healthy baby girl. Her loss is enormously sad. But we did not save her for baby smiles, tricycle rides, long nights in Daddy's loving arms, or her eventual emergence into adulthood. We helped save her because she was a human being and deserved to live. Baby Torres' death does not alter the force of that motivation; rather, it underlines the intrinsic worth of that motivation in a grave, irrevocable way."

O.O., to Baby V: "Drunk Daddy loves you more than Sober Daddy."

O.O. says, "In the future we'll have very well-trained ants to lick the water off of us. We won't have to towel dry anymore."
