they keep on talking funny
The latest thing to puzzle me in med-speak is “benign yet appropriate”. When would it be inappropriate to appear healthy?
There apparently exists a surgical tool called a synovial elevator. Makes me think of a bioengineered building, with beams of bone.
cross-pollination
After watching a murder mystery involving a medium, I dreamt that Maurice Minnifield wanted to hire a medium for one of his promotional schemes.
At least it wasn’t vampires this time.
pent-up demand
It occurs to me that, assuming Cuban Communism does not long outlive Fidel, a lot of gringos are going to buy nostalgic cars there.
distinguishing traits
Watching Jericho, I wondered why Skeet Ulrich looks vaguely familiar; nothing in his previous credits rings a bell. Eventually I decided that his mouth sometimes looks like Johnny Depp‘s. That’s what I notice most about faces; how about you?
sacrifice
Assuming that the next President is unlikely to be a Republican, it occurs to me that the Republican establishment could give Ron Paul the nomination in order to let him, and by extension the noninterventionist cause, take the blame for losing the election. But I’m not convinced that They are devious enough and organized enough to pull that off.
