‘Alright Robert, I will lend you my pen, if you sign this. Terms and conditions. You acknowledge that you are borrowing my pen and must return it to me as soon as you are finished using it to write down this number. You undertake not to chew the end of my pen at any time while it is in your possession, and you agree only to use the red and green biros, and not the blue and black ones because those are my favorites.’
Last night’s WILTY made me think of this

So this just came on Pandora and then this happened oh god.
This is now how I’m spending my day.
I just want to be the Bob Fossil to somebody’s Dixon Bainbridge.
This is no time for pants.

Second piece from the upcoming show “The Lovers, The Dreamers, And Me - A Jim Henson Tribute Exhibition.” at Gallery Nucleus.
This was the first idea I had for the show. It took me about 10 tries before I got it right, but I was dead set on making it work.
another excellent episode.
This is the sort of stuff that got us in trouble in Model UN. We were the UK and we gave Fergie to another country who wanted to make her queen, we traded sheep for gold…we got a lot of dirty looks from the kids from schools who were taking it seriously.

Second Occupy Movement News Update of the Day: 24 Occupy Wall Street demonstrators were locked inside the La Guardia Place Citibank branch and arrested for criminal trespassing. They were attempting to close their bank account at the time.
Footage captured at the scene shows a woman being arrested by a plainclothes cop while shouting “I’m a customer, I’m a customer.”
Earlier it was revealed that the NYPD and several corporations targeted by Occupy Wall Street were tipped off to the protesters’ plans by New York-based computer security consultant Thomas Ryan.
Ryan, who has made a mission out of discrediting the movement, has been monitoring the online activities of Occupy Wall Street organizers since the protest began. Yesterday, Ryan posted to Andrew Breitbart’s Big Government the OWS mailing list, which features thousands of email addresses belonging to OWS demonstrators.
Elsewhere, News Corp. CEO Rupert Murdoch was interrupted several times during his speech at the National Summit on Education Reform by Occupy Sesame Street protests.
“Corporations own all the media in the world; why should they not own all the education as well?,” quipped activist Joe Hill, who was dressed as Sesame Street’s Count. (In Taiwan, Occupy Taipei protesters flashed signs that featured familiar Angry Birds characters.)
In New York, the Take Times Square convergence (AKA The Occupation Party) saw thousands of Occupy Wall Street protesters descend on Midtown Manhattan.
The NYPD set up barricades to control the crowds; police in riot gear made an appearance, as did mounted cops and the counter-terrorism unit. According to an eye-witness, police officers have formed a human chain stretching for hundreds of feet.
The latest reports from the scene suggest the police are preparing to start arresting any protester who refuses to clear out. Occupy Wall Street’s official site says the arrests have begun. NY Scanner appears to confirm this.

Tom Ryan also posted with that bunch a lot of e-mails between himself, Breitbart, and the FBI. We found it at work yesterday right when he posted it — we couldn’t believe what a major dumbass he was.
