Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Please tell me he's gay.

My informant didn't know.

I'm thinking about an angled bob, but I think my face is too pudgy for it. And that is not fishing for compliments -- some face shapes simply do not work with certain hair styles, and that's just fact, not insult.

Actually, I think an angled bob would work for you, as long as the front was *just* below chin-length.

Heh. I just cut that much off, actually. Curses!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Not ugly, just, uh, high energy.

I need to note that just about anybody looks high energy next to Jesse - She Who Has Mastered The Range From Laconic To Phlegmatic.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Bet I don't.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Has anyone seen the shows "Medium" and "Numbers"?

I got a huge "I am so not working on lesson plans" brainlock this weekend and watched those shows and actually kind of liked them. I never thought I would buy Dr. Fleichmann as a FBI guy, but I kinda do.

I wonder about the math in Numbers, though. I take it on faith, cause, so not mathy, but I found myself wondering what would all the math-oriented B'tas think? Is this all accurate, or TV bullshit?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Raises hand.

Languidly, and really not very high.

Well, the only time I met you was right after you finished your all-day krav testing. I can't take an ita bounciness baseline off that.

Jesse's fairly unflappable though. Okay, that time I ran up to her unannonced on the street in Manhattan? She flapped a little. But that's just because I'd broken just about every covenant of proper behavior in NYC.

If I only had a brain...

ita, it varies depending on house style. Usually immediately after the TOC.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think they have a math consultant on hand for Numb3rs, Erin. There are some things I don't buy, but they're mostly innate mastery of computer programs that work in a domain other than math of physics. I don't know from higher math anyway.

Having watched all 4 eps, I agree with DX and disagree with Beverly -- the body language in #2 was part of the episode itself, and not indicative of consistent hugely awkward socialisation on the geek's part.

am I seriously supposed to remember quantifiable improvements that were part of a job 5 years ago?!

No, you lie.
