I want to know why the police chieftess of DC has all that bric-a-brac on her uniform

When you are an official of a banana republic, you must dress the part. About the only thing missing was oversized gold epaulettes.

The Sand People are easily startled but they’ll soon be back, and in greater numbers.

sand people can sneak up on you.

They also ride in single file to hide their numbers.

"I guess even the police are “gun free” in DC. Otherwise they would have shot the guy before he got away."

There's no mention in the article of the race of the attacker, or the officer, but perhaps he didn't shoot because he doesn't want Holder's Injustice Department breathing down his neck for violating the axe wielder's civil rights.

And a big gold colored sash.

The watch commander probably called tech support at Sienar Systems and accidently pushed 1 for Wookie, but only speaks Basic.

I am such a geek (facepalm)

I haven’t played Portal 2 (or 1 for that matter) but knowing you, I’ll assume I’d be lol’ing if I had.

BTW I still haven’t tried your coffee recipe, and I doubt I ever will :)

A song made from Cave Johnsons lines in Portal 2.
The part with the combustible lemons was hilarious.

No doubt,that clip on YT cracked me up, despite never having played Portal.

Now if only I could keep resisting the urge to buy an XBOX 360, and stay away from Skyrim (played up to level 74 on my cousin’s system) I’d be OK...last time a game had me hooked like that was FF7 circa 2000...never liked RPGs before that but damn that was riveting LOL

They startle easily, but they will return in greater numbers.
