FACT: Prostitution helped kill the $2 bill. In the early 1900s, when the government was still trying to push the $2 bill (aka the American Toonie), the going rate for a prostitute was, coincidentally enough, $2 a night. (These days, you can still find deals like that, but you'd better have a raging stretch mark fetish.)
Eventually, $2 bills became associated with prostitution… so guys who were carrying them were roped in as johns, whether fairly or not. It's kind of like today when an athlete decided to go to USC, we assume he's making a great salary there, whether it's true or not.
That tainted the $2 bill and, while that alone didn't kill it, it helped stigmatize it and make it less popular. (Although the $2 bill is still alive. According to The Government, as of April 2007, there were $1.549 billion worth of $2 bills still in circulation.)
We're all stories in the end.

ITS BACK
You might want to be glad not to speak to her ever again…
*Mom hands me phone to answer*
Me: Hello?Telemarketer: Hello, is your mother home?
Me: I have no mother.
Her: Well can I speak to your father?
Me: Yeah, which one?
Her: Which one is home?
Me: Well they're both home..but I don't think you want to talk to Carlos. He just went through a breakup with his boyfriend, Antonio.
Her: Oh, so your fathers' names are Carlos and Antonio?
Me: No, no! My fathers' names are Carlos and Mark.
Her: So who's Antonio?
Me: I just told you, Carlos's ex.
Her: So Carlos was cheating?
Me: Yes, but that's only because Mark was cheating with Edith, our neighbor.
Her: So Carlos cheated only because Mark cheated?
Me: No, he THOUGHT Mark was cheating.
Her: So Mark wasn't cheating?
Me: I never said that.
Her: Yes, yes you did!
Me: No I didn't.
Her: Y-yes! You did!
Me: Did what?
Her: Y-you- Never mind have a nice day, goodbye.

This is the true face of a father-in-law who is 1000% done with his son-in-law
I always forget that Rory is older than the Doctor. Compared to Rory, the Doctor is like a whiny teenager.
Whiney pre teen at the most.

As a composer I don't have a protective shield against what's happening. It goes right into me and sort of empathetic overdrive. I love this show, I mean it just puts you on the rack. One minute you're flying around London, next minute you're on some kind of go-kart in space, and then it just comes down to two people saying goodbye, quite often, and it's tragic. It kills me every time, so yeah I really live that and it's a great show to work on. (x)

Cybermen, Skaldak and Mr Sweet: Series 7 props at the Doctor Who Experience
Even though Series 7 has reached its dramatic conclusion, you can still relive the excitement at the Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff, which has recently had a monster invasion!
Grand Marshal Skaldak, the mighty Ice Warrior from Cold War, stands chained to the Russian missile (or is that just his empty armour…?), alongside a tableau from Nightmare in Silver, featuring a new Cyberman, the Chess Automaton game and Warwick Davis' Porridge costume. You can also see the grotesque Mr Sweet, poking out from Mrs Gillyflower's beautiful Victorian dress, and the "infernal machine", which she used to control her rocket.
They join other recent exhibits from the first part of Series 7, which include the Great Intelligence's snow-globe, the Weeping Angel cherubs, and Oswin's red dress, complete with soufflé whisk.
See a gallery of the new Series 7 exhibits in the Doctor Who Experience, at the link, and book tickets here.

Yeah, the above statement is completely truthful if we're to be honest most of the time it is just weird.

Doctor Who has never pretended to be hard science fiction … At best Doctor Who is a fairytale, with fairytale logic about this wonderful man in this big blue box who at the beginning of every story lands somewhere where there is a problem. - neil gaiman
