The Internet was down for 5 1/2 hours today at work! →[More:] Now that it's back the twitching should stop soon.

The song I was listening to when it came back on? "Please, Please, Please," by James Brown. Is there anything he can't do?

Well, mike, it's a man's man's man's world, but it wouldn't be nothin' without a woman or a girl.

Isn't there a restraining order or two in play here?

Have you seen the BMW short film called Beat the Devil starring James Brown, Clive Owen and Gary Oldman [with special guest appearance by Marilyn Manson]?

James Brown can do any goddamn thing he wants.

I don't like James Brown. Well, I don't like his music - I don't know him personally. So the answer to "Is there anything he can't do" is "Get me to buy one of his records".

Unless he gave me the money and maybe took me out to dinner...then I would buy one.

He can't stand it.
He can't stand that backstabbin'.
He can't dance, he got ants in his pants.
He can't get any harder.
He can't stand himself (when you touch him)

Other than that, omnipotent.

Last night my router melted - literally - so there was no internet for me last night. Man, that was scary.

That is no strip of pavement used for the racing of customized automobiles, jonmc.

well, simply flagellate your limbs skyward, as if you were indifferent.
