I don't think I know how to respond to that.

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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My response it to hope it's on opposite some show I want to watch, so as to lessen the chance of any schedule conflicts.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Me, I threw up in my mouth a little.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm hoping something shiny distracts him long enough for them to hire someone else to write/direct.

If I'm in shock, someone should really bring me some hot tea.

Art Crawl!!!
And did we post about the stuntcasting in The OC yet?
George Lucas. . . as himself.
Also, I didn't know that "The Dresden Files" were in development for Scifi.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Was the particular virgin Greek Orthodox?
Actually, the chances were 50-50, because Yugoslavia is mixed. I think she did end up being Catholic, but don't remember, since we found a whole book on her. It was just the "Virgin of Methagorgeous" brain-to-computer translation that was problematic.
And in other "I found it for her" news, my mother just called me up because her google wasn't working. She says, Which Chandler was it that was friends with the poet Tish, and was depressed, and a drunk? Not Raymond Chandler. Wild googling and guessing on my part ensued, and it developed that she meant Raymond Carver. Luckily, I am a good guesser, because I've never read a word he's written.

Random question. If you were going to spend 3 weeks looking at magical realism, what books would you teach together. Pick 3. And, ftr, it can't be all Garcia Marquez.
Ooh, I love this question.
The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende
1000 Years of Solitude by Marquez
The Mistress of Spices by Chitra Divakaruni
And I'd throw some poetry by Neruda in the mix, maybe. And a short story by Charles de Lint.
Will you be teaching this, Kat? I'd love to know how it works out.
