All is well that ends in pizza.

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

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.

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

Oh! it could be their mom, and he and Shannon both roll their eyes and say "Oh mom!"

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.

That would have broken me.

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

Can't they give them to libraries or something, or ship them somewhere? So many trees killed for naught. There oughta be a law.

and now for my Meara:

There already appears to be a song about Evangeline Lilly

OMG I totally forgot, there already is a song called Evangeline! An awesome one at that.

if you have that much need to be self-flagellated there are easier ways to go about it

Yeah, like being Spike and picking a fight with S6 Buffy being Wes and picking a fight with S1 Faith being Jayne and picking a fight with Mal

Snicker Bitch must DIE!

Did anyone else think that Not!Sawyer's ConWife was Snicker Bitch for a second? This was in the first scene, when I was alternately saying "It's Anya!" "No, it's Shannon!" over & over.

Welcome newbies. Please read the FAQ, noting especially this part:

Q. How do I quote something I want to reply to?

Either italicize it, or place a forward facing caret > in front of it. If you use the caret, the text will end up looking like this:

Quoted text for reply.
...

The text will be indented until you force a line break in the text box by hitting the Enter key.

No. All het males have an automatic breast diameter/depth sensor that immediately identified ConWife as someone new.

Sad, but true.

Oh god, Sawyer. It makes me so hot when you're an asshole. (I also said this aloud. My mother said "Regina. SERIOUSLY. I'm worried.")

Heeeeee from Regina's LJ.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

In the "why wasn't the book wet?" department, Sawyer's been reading it for several episodes. It's had sufficient time to dry off. Granted, it still doesn't look like it's been in the ocean, but hey.

And I don't think Sawyer actually has the inhalers. Kate already made an offer to trade for them. If Shannon actually dies, they become valueless. There's no reason to horde them.
