blowout sale on all 2005 stories

Corinne and I say that 2005 has been a banner year for funny discovery and, in the immortal words of Don Henley, takin' it to the limit.

Seems everyone had something weird or awful or wonderful happen to them this year. So if you've got juicy tidbits you want to share as a part of a pre-2006 purge, kindly share them with your blogconfessor. Anonymity guaranteed, of course.

Corinne sez: waaait a minute. Aren't you supposed to divulge juicy tidbits? Isn't that what a blog is supposed to be about? like...maybe you met the love of your life in ahhhh...kandahar? or maybe you went looking for the love of your life in ahhhhhhhhh....sweden? why not...it's love in the time of cholera...i mean love in the time of bird flu.

'Aight. She's got a point.

Details to follow....

(so maybe you got cholera/avian flu/the luuurve bug this year...we want to hear it! send your stories - no bories! to us at insouciante)

UPDATE: oh yeah. Re. the Sweden. Let me clarify: I went looking for the love of my life, and returned instead with an awesome Burberry sweater at 70% off, a Kurdish accent to add to my roster of impressions, and the ability to drive stick shift. Not exactly true love, Ms. Kandahar, but pretty good nonelessless, non?

According to babelfish, insouciante means "carefree woman".

Is someone who hunts for 70% discounts while being courted by a hot iraqi kurd really an examplar of the title of carefree? dictionary.com delivers the following example:

adj 2: cheerfully irresponsible; "carefree with her money"; also "had a harum-scarum youth"

White Zombie in "Starface" sing

"Harum scarum holiday - Double
deal'n on the ones who say
"collapse me with a powerblast"
Ground to zero roll'n fast"

Was Bin Laden secretly listening to White Zombie? Hm...

Congratulations on your new blog, it's already funny.

yours,
Big-assed steed
