Because books.

I have a new unspoiled theory about VM

I thought Logan had an airtight alibi for the day of the murder. I could be wrong, though. And I totally saw a train wreck coming in terms of Logan and Veronica, but last night still hurt. She wants to trust him -- I want to trust him -- but while his attraction to her feels real, it all seemed too good to be true from the beginning.

Sigh.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

VM: Duncan is the Antichrist. He invented the IRS.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

VM: Aaron works. partially because he is so low on my radar. I am guessing that things will come out about Wallace's invovlment, what Veronica has been doing, where her Mom is that will make it all messy. Wallace's mom and kieth seem to be looking for uncomplicated right now.

Hmm, something tells me that Gus doesn't like Duncan , but I can't quite put my finger on what...

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

I use almost every possible combination. For checks and official stuff, I use my first middle initial (I have two) and a "III" at the end. Professionally, I generally leave off the "III," since neither my father or grandfather were chemists. A lot of my business correspondance get signed "Ed Lastname." I use three initials for initialing stuff.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Frankenbuddha, I agree. Those two are off-limits.

And Gus, I dunno. Seems a bit meta to have the obvious guy do it, assuming that your audience discounted him because he's the obvious guy. After all, being responsible for AIDS (and famine and genocide, natch) is a big job; most people don't have time to fit in murdering their sisters and raping their ex-girlfriends.

Oh! Secretary's Day started out well!

Is it Secretaries Day!?! I feel neglected. Usually I at least get a plant!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Is it Secretaries Day!?! I feel neglected.

Yes. Our bank paid for us to attend a webcast of Cokie Roberts speaking. Her new book sounds fascinating.

On the other hand, no one on our floor has bothered to notice, and both of us have been working our asses off lately, dammit.

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

Fascinating:

A new study indicates that African-Americans and Hispanics watch more TV than the general population. According to the study by Scarborough Research and reported Tuesday by the website MediaDailyNews, African-Americans take greater advantage of the different types of cable services available, including pay-per-view, digital cable, and premium channels, while Hispanics are 70 percent more likely to watch kids programming than the general population. African-Americans watch 70 percent more soap operas and 22 percent more sci-fi programs than the general population. "I don't think we can answer the question as to why they watch more, we can only say that they do," Cheryl Greenblatt, senior vice president of television sales for Scarborough, told the website.
