Kristen Bell is just a doll. I love how much she can laugh at herself. I bet her family life is fun as hell. Much respect.

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

Well, their families are VERY close, good friends. They even travel together ... last summer they took an RV trip together.

[@MelixArgentina]

@@SherryAnnOfTheWest Which families? Jimmy's and Kristen's?

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

@@MelixArgentina yes

[@hannahchandler5727]

Agreed!

[@angelajohnson9076]

I agree she's so funny and also so pretty .. also wonderful personality...

[@within360]

She's good at this. She can reliably fill a long segment and Jimmy can be himself. They get the bonus of a scripted bit. She certainly punches above her weight.

[@DeeEllEff]

I’ve never thought of it in boxing terms (nor had I ever heard, “up your butt with a rubber nut”), but you’re so right. Ever since I first saw Veronica Mars, she’s been punching above her weight!

I absolutely LOVED "The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window"!! Not what I expected to happen, but thought it was a great watch. I really love anything Kristen Bell is in. Also, in SoFL to see an iguana on someone's car is an everyday thing. Those things run wild EVERYWHERE!! And they're kind of annoying. They poop on your head sometimes because they're up in trees.

[@tigq1430]

PLEASE! Do it! My aunt had hers, they ended up finding liver cancer. BUT was able to get it all! Avoided chemotherapy & radiation! Regular screening, beginning at age 45, is the key to preventing colorectal cancer and finding it early. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends that adults age 45 to 75 be screened for colorectal cancer. The Task Force recommends that adults age 76 to 85 ask their doctor if they should be screened.

[@burnyizland]

I too suffer from atrociously loud and persistent hiccups. I've worked most of my life in cubicle land so it's always been a source of amusement/annoyance/curiosity for my coworkers, depending on their temperaments. My favorite response from one bespeckled meercat was to offer me $100 to hiccup ONE MORE TIME. I had been doing it for hours by the time he offered it and I did not, could not, make one more hiccup happen. I was more relived than I was bummed to miss out on the money though, they HURT.
