Iiiiiiiiit's ten o'clock, time for your weekly teaspoon of tenacity, Paradisa. Open wide and hold your nose, 'cuz maybe it'll taste like bubblegum and maybe it won't. This is Happy Harry Hard-On, comin' atcha.

[fondly] If that's not a perfect motivator I don't know what is.

[hard_talker]

A hot poker in the vicinity of sensitive body parts tends to be right up there on Letterman's Top Ten, too.

[eat_me_beat_me]

And here I was trying to wax poetic.

[hard_talker]

Hey, it's your job to be poetic and mine to be crass, right?

[fishy_go_byebye]

[Del's never noticed these before, off in her own little world.]

You know my brother?

[hard_talker]

Uh, maybe? [amiably] Which brother're we talkin' about, here?

[fishy_go_byebye]

He told a story.

[hard_talker]

Oh! Yeah, no, I didn't actually talk to him. Good story, though.

[agentkane]

Hey. The microwave was not blown up.

It was just on fire.

[hard_talker]

Oh, it happened again? ... [snort] That thing should get frequent explosion miles. I think it's kicked the appliance bucket at least three times this year.

[ruined_jaw]

{Sounds like a plan, mate. Think we've all got someone like that we remember.}

[Now, he'll put this on. Modern music. Mark should hear it.]

[hard_talker]

I thought it was a decent fuckin' idea, myself.

[and once the music's over?] Okay, you gotta tell me who that was, so I can go raid the music room. That was great.

[ruined_jaw]

{I's a British band called Bush. What I jus' played ya was an advance copy o' their newest song. They've been 'round since th' mid-90's, an' they've got a hell o' a body o' work. Much o' me career as a musician was built 'round these blokes.}

[hard_talker]

Bush, huh? Definitely gonna check it out.

What else've you been up to?

[whitecovered]

...An agreeable sentiment.

[hard_talker]

Hey, thanks.

[whitecovered]

[he thinks he could stand to be a little more...eloquent, but hey, the message got across.]

Do you announce these...motivational speeches over the journal often?

[hard_talker]

Every Monday, at 10 P.M. sharp. Which one've our hallowed newbies are you?
