Tomorrow is Cliché Day, officially--let's make a bonfire and throw all the clichés in it...

Sorry, but I deleted a comment because it was a series of links to scantily clad ladies. Not only would that not be appropriate for younger audiences that read this blog, but as a series of links to someone else's website, it is a form of spam, and I do not endorse spam in any form.
