I love the hot dog's "I couldn't help it" expression. Hold the mustard!

The devil's making you want it.

Automatic teller machine machine?

Russell: I can't believe I did that. I was actually thinking about how it's ATM and not "ATM machine" as I was writing that. Congratulating myself for knowing better. Somehow I made myself write it!

Corrected.

Loving the green in the last photo. Mmmmm. With temps forecast to dip into the teens tonight, I'm jealous. Spring teased with me and my garden, but then the temps dropped and everything is brown. And frozen.

You should have just stayed and planted yourself at the Four Seasons and walked along the lake.

No need to bother going anywhere else.

Peace, Maxine

I want Althouse to start her own radio station, and she can.

But no Mammas and Poppas, and no Bob Dylan---he took drugs.

No druggies.

Congratulating yourself. An Althouse speciality!!!

Extra fitting when it's misplaced. Go Annie!

Would AJD recognize self-deprecation if it bit him on the ass?

That first picture reminds me of the old Peaches record stores with their big painted record album covers.

I do want a new tattoo. How'd you know? I'm waiting to give blood this month, then maybe I'll give in to the devil. (You can't give blood for 12 months after getting a tattoo-but I really, really want the latest blook bank giveaway, a black t-shirt with a fleur de lis, and the phrase "I bleed Black and Gold" so no tattoo until the donation is made.)

Anyone recognize the naked guy in the Mural, carrying bongos and a bong? Matthew McConaughey. Remember his disturbing-the-peace arrest a few years ago in Texas, where he was stoned, naked and playing bongos at a buddy's house? Very funny pop-culture reference. Kudos, Austin.
