Gee, let me guess–I bet the previous poster is white, huh? A nice respectable bourgeois white person. Try wearing a mask into a gas station store if you’re a Person of Color, see what it gets you!  
Had a brief power outage tonight–sounded like a transformer blew–but the power’s back on, the A/C is back on, and (of course) the Internet is back on.

If you think we don’t know that “serene music” is a thinly disguised euphemism  
for snorting cocaine then you are very much mistaken.

Now, i’m going to make a cup of coffee and watch the snooker final.
