So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

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

Did the title for Courtney always read Former First Lady? Do we know if McAllister is in power at the time of the flash-forwards?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What you have are nationally conscious people, people who say, "my fatherland, right or wrong." My fatherland, nothing more, am I right?

Plus I think it's possible to be nationalistic without exterminating twelve million people and starting a world war.

Yes, but historically I think only Nazi Germany and WWII era Japan called their countries "fatherland"

I don't think that makes any difference. But it reminds me how the captian of the Bismark said that the ship was too big and powerful to be a "she" - he insisted that the ship be refered to as masculine.

Are you ready to be strong?

I take those "Paris is a racist" stories with a lot of salt, personally. They don't ring entirely true.

That is so sad about Hunter S. Thompson. Jesus.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Rio! Hi how are you?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm more than mildly shaken by the HST news.

I'm also too white to really appreciate desi comedy, but I did think of P-C during tonight's viewing.

I don't know if there's anything wrong with the -cones themselves, except for the standard everything'll-kill-ya sort of thing.

In my case, even with shampoo, they build up, and while they make my hair feel great for about 12 hours, after those 12 hours are up, my hair feels dry and ghastly. If I'm using a non-'cone product, my hair appears to stay slightly more stable.

Swouncing

Poking head in the three minutes with a working connection (the network here is acting crazy for a few days now), while it's still the 20th in some places to wish belated birthday wishes to Jon.

I won't tempt my luck, the way I did yesterday (I wanted to post "Happy birthday!" for Jon when it was he 20th, so I waited, and then, well, the network decided to die on me), so I'll post right now that the 21st is Katie M's birthday, and lots of wishes for her, for a great day and a wonderful year!

[Edit: yay! It posted! Now why couldn't it do it yesterday, on time, like I wanted it to?]

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Birthday Jon!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Oh, I missed it. Happy belated Birthday, Jon! I hope it was happy.

Our wings are not tired.

Huh, my belated wishes were eaten by the board. I hope it was a wonderful day Jon.

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

Happy Birthday, Katie M!!!
