While I'm jaunting around Europe for the following month, I've given Maria permission to post quotage in my stead. She lives in NYC, so I have a feeling she shouldn't want for remarkable things to bring to your attention.
Check the "comments" link after this entry.
I'll be back in four weeks, and I hope to have quite the Euromegapost when I return. I may even have quotes in other languages! (A girl can dream...)

Not really overheard, but let's ponder this for today (submitted by Brian):
Belladonna, n. In Italian, a beautiful lady; in English, a deadly poison. A striking example of the essential identity of the two tongues. - Ambrose Bierce
I'm getting way off track here(also submitted by Mr. Meredith):
OMG: Net-centric abbreviation for the popular exclamation "Oh my God!" (generally used in conversations to exclaim surprise or disgust). Most commonly used by teenage girls who find it depressingly hard to type out an entire word. Reinforces assumptions that humans seem to be getting dumber from generation to generation.

By Ashley's orders from London, I am posting the latest text I sent her:
"Tom thinks you will meet a hot, uncut irish bloke on this trip. Which has me fantasizing about the irish. Your mission: find out if they are circumcised."
...but I'm not going to tell you what was not for use in Cyprus...
javamon01: why is that not for use in cyprus
MriaAsunta: hahaha
MriaAsunta: it could be dangerous there
javamon01: apparently. I think that would be hugely fun.
javamon01: now I just need to find a girl who thinks the same
MriaAsunta: you need to find an alternate-universe version of me
The answer was too good not to share.

me: you don't eat seafood?
Tom: rarely
only fish that's not fishy
it's a shameful secret
me: yes, you should keep that to yourself
Tom: it's ben hard on my family
me: have you tried counseling?
Tom: group therapy
we meet at an abandoned red lobster
David: hmm. I think you should hire me as your indie music consultant.
David: then you'll be able to pick up mentally unstable goth girls.
Sometimes I'm pretty sure Dave is my soulmate...
Me: what exactly does that mean, shoe-in?
David: oohhh, I'm glad you asked.
you've spelled the expression wrong, as do many people.
(I looked this up)
when a race horse is so fast that one can merely shoo it across the finish line, you call it a "shoo-in." interestingly, to "shoehorn" something is to do it with difficulty, so saying "shoe-in" is quite confusing!
now we're both smarter.
MriaAsunta: the sheets are making a lot of gold lint
javamon01: well that'll happen on the first wash
javamon01: if you fancy acting like a panda
javamon01: I assume you could eat it
javamon01: although as your attorney I don't think I would recommend that
Ashley (from Strasbourg): i would be using an exclamation point but i cant find it
apparently the french dont get
excited
ever
Tom likes the idea of holding therapy sessions in bad chain restaurants?
Tom: I've been kicked to the curb

we could meet at the Olive Garden under your building!
