Depending on how familiar I am with the sound tech, I like to vary between the standard "check 1-2, testing testing. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. Spinx of black quartz, judge my vow. Richard of York gave battle in vain." to "this is your mic checker, checking in. It's a balmy room temperature in here, uhhhhhhhhh...." and then talk like a airline pilot giving the pre-flight speech. Or even start making basically every audible sound I can think of that they might be dealing with while also trying to make the tech laugh because I know he's usually super serious and doesn't get anything other than the usual "check one two three" 9/10 times.

You'd think if the state were so sure of its case, it would happily continue to prove guilt later on and wouldn't need to rely on PRESUMED guilt.

I was today years old when I realized that she was talking to Homer Hickam, and I've seen the movie October Sky more times than I can count.

One of my wife's friends gets really upset when people call it Twitter for some reason. She doesn't even use it. Just gets irate and reminds everyone the name was changed so if you want people to know what you're talking about you should call it X.

Strange hill to choose...

I officially have no idea what's going on...

Am I out of touch?... No, it's the young who are wrong!

I'm fully aware of what I can do to stop it.

But then other people wouldn't get to gear the wonderful clanging sound!

And they need to know!

So stop it I shan't.

I can almost hear the record scratch as he says "But we don't do that..."

The opening scene of episode 1 hooked me.

And every reference for the next twenty minutes made sure I stayed.

strongly worded

WOAH there, cowboy. We don't want to go wording our PR too strongly, or Israel might think we're semi-serious!

I'll have you know I have never once accidentally made a Cronenburg monster.
