He'd do it to you. With friendship in his heart, but still.

Being able to watch DVDs on the plane improved my ability to tolerate flying immensely.

I was actually disapointed when we were told we'd be arriving in Houston 20 minutes early, as it meant I couldn't finish the ep of WF I was watching.

DVD's in the bathtub. Better living through technology.

I think Use #2 of the laptop is going to be me crawling into bed with it and reading comics on it. Bliss.

Guess who has a coffee date? :)

The only people I want to google have frustratingly ungoogleable names. Or I don't know enough of the name.

However, I am the only result when you google me. Uncommon first AND last names.

still shivering over the strange man singing country songs (and talking about how he was raped by the LA County Sheriff) ON MY COUCH when I was 8.5 months pregnant

Dude. That is FUCKED UP.

I always answer my home phone, because there's like, three people that call it, and the rare telemarketers. But my cellphone has caller ID. I usually answer it anyway, but...

I wouldn't mind being used in anatomy class, but I'd like my organs to be donated if possible, so...I also think it would be cool to be a research body like in the Patricia Cornwell books, wehre they have a farm that they leave dead bodies in different places/temperatures to see how they look after however long...(Ah, Steph mentioned it, the Body Farm)

so it'd probably be wrong for me to pick on Hec, a very fine writer, just because he makes a little mistake that happens to be a pet peeve of mine, like, say, confusing a contraction with a possessive pronoun.

Homophones are not my friends.

I agree with Cindy's assessment that PP&M are like unto the rectum of a cat.

Go meara with the date-having!

I'm judging another writing contest. The two I've judged so far were challenging, because they were OK but just didn't quite come to life somehow, and I had to try to figure out WHY they didn't, explain it, and offer suggestions for improvement. Which probably helps me develop as a writer, tempting as it was to just write, "I dunno. Meh." and be done with it.

I didn't catch Hec's mistake. Yesterday, I attempted to google the guy I crushed on in hs. Have no idea which one he is! But it's silly...what would I say? "Now I would do more than stare at you." or "I'm less ugly than you(probably don't) remember, I swear!"

t A thread lurker pops up to defend folk music.

It's got pretty harmonies! Simple tunes you can sing along with!

I like to alternate my Weavers boxed set with the Cure or Big Pig--it clears out the folk palate with some serious new wave.

All this can be achieved without snooty lefty-lib smuggery. Stick to Woody Guthrie - he had a sense of humor. Or Billy Bragg and Wilco covering Woody Guthrie. Weavers are okay. Peter Paul & Mary? No.
