You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

OK, I confess. I have the inhalers. Damn that meddlesome Korean woman and her herbal interventions. Snicker Bitch must DIE!

All is well that ends in pizza.

I like that they established Sun's love of plants in earlier eps so we wouldn't say it was an asspull.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I was thinking a ziploc, DCJ, but I don't seen Boone being that anal about books.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Definitely. Going back to the analogous-roles discussion, it seems like Sun is being edged toward a wise-woman, wiccan-empowered, let-us-now-investigate-male/female-issues spot. Tara, with an accent.

Haven't spotted Willow, yet.

I want his backstory to include someone giving him the book in a ziplock "to keep sand out at the beach."

Oh! it could be their mom, and he and Shannon both roll their eyes and say [ETA: something along the lines of] "Oh mom!" and he is shown tossing it in the suitcase.

Will that be followed by a "Golly gee willickers"?

I was going for the emotion, not the exact dialogue.

Notice he didn't have it in carryon.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I had a summer job for a book distributor once, where the job was to strip off covers for returns. It literally (pun!) gave me nightmares.

I worked for Waldenbooks for six years, and every month, we weeded the shelves for returns. Hardcovers and trade paperbacks (those larger than the pocket paperbacks) got sent back to the warehouse to be sold to remainder houses, and the pocket paperbacks were all stripped, the covers scanned and sent to the warehouse and the books thrown into the dumpster. We couldn't even take them home in case we would sell them at the used bookstore (that happened once a few years before at another store, and the employee, assistant managers, and manager were all fired as a result).

Even worse was when the first store I worked at closed down, and we had to strip ALL of the paperbacks in the store--at least 4,000 of them were to be trashed. We had to go through hoops to get permission to send them off to the recycling plant instead of directly to the garbage.

They ought to film this and show it every Halloween.
