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

I mentioned to my sister, who asked about J-Ho at the Grammys, that word-on-the-b.org sounded like singing with someone who spoke good Spanish and sang well made it more apparent that she couldn't do either. And noted that this wasn't a problem when she was Bennifer.

Apparently, my sister informs me, Ben Affleck's Spanish is better than J-Lo's.

That makes me laugh. And predictably, makes the Affleck a little more attractive. Spanish==sexy, multilingualism==sexy.

shrift, I have to ask for my alcohol back.

Oh, share and share alike, I say. And I can say that because the liquor store is across the street from my comics shop, where I'll be heading to soon enough.

my sister informs me, Ben Affleck's Spanish is better than J-Lo's.

Well, it's better than, but if her spanish is terrible doesn't that make it possible that his is only slightly less terrible.

The $20 for making Ben Affleck less attractive can be paypal'd to me.

J.J.Abrams gives good casting even if he's not so great with arcy story lines.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Anyone in NYC watching the news right now? It looks like a Hellmouth just opened up in Astoria.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Isn't Astoria near the Hellgate?

My sister is a huge language snob. She doesn't allow for gradations of terrible. Quantum improvements only. Something about a couple years living in a Latin country.

Oh then, cancel my $20 for descalating (wrong word, but you know) the BA esteem.

Howabout this instead to descalate? I don't understand how he goes from slobby and bloaty one day to almost good looking the next. Barring abuse of alcohol, what could make that be so?
