it's been a hell of a week, including house guests, 2 birthdays, work, and a misdiagnosed appendectomy (which wasn't), but made me spend 4 hours in the ER.
Oh my! /tries math/ sounds like it’s even crazier than over here. And I basically only got home to eat and sleep this past week…
Next year, I'm just going to skip my birthday. It can't get any better than that!
Huh…isn’t Clark also into skipping his birthday?
LOIS: So long as he keeps wearing his birthday suit instead.
Yes, being in jail has to be very boring for Lex.
On the other hand, maybe he finds a new husband in the jail’s dating site (the showers)
Quote:
Wouldn’t it be awkward if they traveled via Mexico and Lois wouldn’t get into the US due to lack of a passport.
Actually, yes! That sounds like a fun story.
Or story within the story? Parts 280-305?
Well, when you fly East from Australia you pass over the Day/Time line and end up going backwards in time. It's entirely possible to leave Sydney and land in Hawaii before you left.
Yes, it is. But I still maintain that Tempus’s interpretation is funnier
Quote:
She appears to be slightly irritable.
/Points to Lois's ability to stay mad/
I like to understate things.
Possibly something a little more violent. (reminds readers what happened to the Orient Express victim Max Menken while he was in police lockup.)
Yes, but Nigel is an elderly gent with a mean right hook.
Quote:
Well…that’s yestermonth’s news and already well published by the MetStar.
CAT: /mad/ Copy cats!
You'd think that would make her (Cat) happy.
That her story got reprinted?
MetStar: We don’t reprint. It was an original investigation of the Houston Chronicle’s article by one of our best copy boys.
CLARK: Didn't I tell her about my briefs? Anyway, *she* doesn't tell me about how she spends *her* nights, either!
LOIS: I fail to see the relevancy.
Actually, Lois is referring to the Space Station going around the Earth every 90 minutes (or so) X 2 months (1344 hours) in space = roughly 2.5 years. (i.e. every 24 hours = 16 "days" in space). Space Station humor.
Astronuts are weird.
LOIS: Did he just call me a weird nut?
Lois did not catch pregnancy while in space.
To be fair, it’s a pretty common infliction these days.
More like, he's been filling all his usual Lois worrying hours with work.
FRANKLIN STERN: This means if I had Lois Lane killed and her death proven to Clark Kent beyond reasonable doubt, I could significantly and permanently improve the output of my newest possession?
Good thing Nigel's too dead for revenge.
LEX: And that’s why I am the boss. I’m never too dead for revenge.
Assuming she's invited to the Kerth Awards to begin with. /ducking/
No that would be flat-out mean, not letting her see how other people receive her awards.
SUPERMAN: I can check the planes covertly. Flying Lois to the States would have meant that others would be made aware of our close friendship.
Couldn’t he put her in a plastic bag or a big duffel bag or something?
I've discovered that my kids have been coming in and "playing" around in WORD without my permission, deleting stuff, adding new stuff, etc.
Oh my. Poor over yonder fics…
I've started having to log off instead of just "sleeping" my computer so that they can no longer do this. Luckily, my password isn't "Superman".
It’s Ultra Woman instead?
In all seriousness, though, you can tell Windows to require your password upon waking up. That way you can still send it to bed when you’re done:

Or maybe the sun?
On the plane and/or airport?
Yeah…
Quote:
So, no peanuts?
No, there were nuts, but they were displayed in the wrong manner.
Lois likes to unwrap her nuts herself, huh?
Quote:
Awww…is this like in ye olden days, when the treaty-accessory was placed in the care of the new business partner?
CLARK: Sounds good to me.
LOIS: I'm not PROPERTY!
CHING: I must concur, Ms. Lane. We refer to our concubines as ‘chattel’.
That Bill knows that if he runs fast enough, her limited muscle mass won't allow her to catch him or beat the crap out of him.
And thanks to her gun aversion ever since getting shot and the highly effective airport gun control, she won’t be able to shoot him in the back either.
BILL: Yes, I have very high confidence in her boyfriend stopping any bullets she might fire in my direction.
CLARK: <not sure taunting Lois is safe> What do you mean? I'm not invisible. /points to amnesia and hospital stay/
Huh…Oh, you meant ‘invincible’!
Sorry, I meant "irritability". /grumble spell checking when half asleep/ Fixed.
That’s funny. Spell checking always does put me half asleep
Quote:
Could she sue Cpt. Martin for damages and suffering and wrongful imprisonment?
LOIS: That would mean dealing with lawyers, right? Pass.
Maybe that nice pro-bono lawyer that helped her deal with Stern?
SHELDON BENDER: I’m a pro-…
ER:

SHELDON BENDER: Oh. Really? No, I’m not a pro-bono lawyer.
Quote:
Brave. Foolish but very brave.
CLARK: I scanned her. She's not carrying Kryptonite.
Pretty much. (i.e. he didn't want to hurt her feelings since it was his/Superman's fault she was in an emotionally vulnerable state to begin with)
He’s quite complicated for a guy, isn’t he?
Quote:
Yes, but what good is that one doing him if he’s too afraid of said loving?
CLARK: There's more to love than sex.
LOIS: Really?
CLARK: But... but... but... I already gave her a Chocolate Superman. What more does she want?
That was *two months* ago. That bribe stopped being effective 59 days ago.
LOIS: A chocolate dipped Clark Kent.
CLARK: <doesn’t like to be candy>
