1.1 or 2.0?
You'd have to ask Willow.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
In re Aimee's post above, this all is more and more like a bad (and incredibly long) Law & Order script every minute.

Sanjay Gupta, I think. Sort of a standard medical talking head, like Bob Arnott on ABC. There's also a TV doctor named Ramachandran, who is the most entertaining guy evar, but he is strictly PBS, AFAIK.

Deal done, offer accepted. Last day on the phones: a week from tomorrow.
Sweet! Congratulations, Alex!

1.1 or 2.0?
Arguing which USB the Buffybot used could be the quintessential Buffista moment. If only there was a way to get porn in there . . .
Oh yeah, it's an argument about Spike's sex-bot.

What about Firewire?

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

I think you'd have to ask Spike.

Another visit from Cynical!Connie.
How long do you think it will be before whispers of beatification begin? It could be argued that she was denied proper recognition of her faith and, in essence, martyred.
Some days I hate my brain.

Fuck. I just missed a deadline for timecard. I meant to do it first thing this morning, and then I got distracted and just NOW remembered.
Damnit. Hope my manager doesn't kill me.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
A scary but interesing column about America's drift toward a fascist theocracy--it might be a bit extreme, but it's definitely something to think about.
Don't expect the jackboots to march around the corner tomorrow. Don't expect homes to be indiscriminately raided. Don't expect citizens to be hauled off in the dead of night -- although that has been the case with indiscriminate arrests of many Muslim immigrants since 9/11.
Consider, however, the anti-democratic warning signs: the Patriot Act and subsequent civil liberties-busting legislation; election snafus seamlessly fading into history; a war carried out on the basis of misinformation and disinformation; secret prisons where captives are tortured.
Think about how things change slowly, yet dramatically, while good people either aren't paying attention or are too satisfied to raise their voices.

beatification
Wait, don't you have to, like, have done something on purpose to forward the faith? Like, I don't think somebody who accidentally fell off a cliff could be called an advocate for cliff safety. An example for future advocates, yes; an advocate, no.
Then again, last time we had this conversation, I asked why Kitty Genovese hadn't been beatified.
