Outline
00:45 - Intro - Half-Virile Knight

05:57 - This Monday I came home from my first shift back at work since the start of the apocalypse to find that all my posters (about 15) had been flipped upside-down. I have three younger siblings and a friend staying with me this summer. No one will confess. How do I find the flipper or at least get them to anonymously right the posters? - Poster Problem in the Purple Mountains

10:28 - Y - Sent in by lots of folks, from an anonymous Yahoo! Answers user whom Griffin calls "Xena," who asks: "Do you miss the days when it was still popular to shop at Sears?"

15:58 - I visited my local CVS a couple weeks back. While there, one of the clerks asked me the name of the cologne I was wearing. I didn't know what it was called, but I told him I'd come back in a couple days and let him know. When I returned to the store, the clerk was nowhere to be found. I've returned to the store about once a week since then, but I haven't ran into that clerk again. Does he still want to know the name of my cologne? How do I give this information to him? Should I just give up my quest? - CVS Cologne Conundrum

19:48 - Y - Sent in by Emma Kantt, from an anonymous Yahoo! Answers user whom Griffin calls "Michael Jordan," who asks: "Titanic was such an excellent movie that its hard to critique anything about it. But what is something small you would critique about it?"

54:34 - I'm in the process of writing a fairly serious fantasy novel set in classic oldentimes. My problem is this: What is the best word to use when referring to a character's butt? This is a fairly serious scene, so I don't want to sound anachronistic or suggestive. At the same time, I don't want to sound stuffy or puritanical, so what's my best option? - Chasing Tail Words in Chattanooga
