Some folks really know how to write a sentence-

I'm obviously not one of them. Here are the two the best sentences I've read this week. First, from Lileks, writing about plans for the next Indiana Jones movie:
I loved the first movie, but left the second with a headache and the feeling I’d spent the last hour trapped in the fat-folds of a Sumo wrestler with spasmodic bowels.
And from Baboon Pirate, writing about his chances of getting a significant pay raise this year:
Not gonna make it out to Jawja this year, unless The Man doubles my salary between now and September. I'll be installing a control tower on my taint to direct the squadrons of flying monkeys departing from my bunghole before that feat of financial wizardry ever comes to pass.
That's writing!
