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.

If I only had a brain...

Okay, I love when they rag on just about anyone, but the pictures of CS are just so uniformly awful as to make one cry with laughter.

I think Bai Ling is also a very worthy victim.

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

She's still yucky because the white trash lurks beneath.

I reserve that sort of yuck for labelling Xtina. I don't care how you polish her up, she seems to be on borrowed glamour. Britney looks like she owns it until she goes home.

Librarian Warlord

I can't think of anything else to say.

getting information to the people who need it most, preserving a record of what's being written now so that someone else can actually find and access it in the future, ummmmm, you love working with people...

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

ION, I'm struggling to figure out what to say in my Statement of Career Objectives for my library school app. Um, I want to be a librarian! I love books and libraries, and I like organizing stuff. I can't think of anything else to say.

How about "Shhhhhhhhh. Take it outside."?

Pfft. Dude, that is SO 1972 J.G. Ballard's introduction to the French translation of Crash.

Ha! Considering your take on "authenticity," I'd think you would love this book when you're not rolling your eyes at De Zengotita's self-indulgence.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"A very haunted girl, much too bright for her age. She has this Jayne Mansfield body and a horrifyingly great brain."
- John Malkovich, when asked to describe Uma who was 18 when she worked with Malkovich on Dangerous Liaisons (1988). (Cosmopolitan, November 1993)

Of course, Uma at 18 is very different than Uma today.

PARIS HILTON.

When did Uma have a Mansfield body? Not in the version of Dangerous Liaisons I saw.

Swouncing

I was wondering when pictures would start turning up in this discussion.

Kate, why do you like libraries? Why better than other ways of getting to books? Why do you like organizing stuff? How can these things help people (whenever I had any sort of proposal to write, people told me to put in the "help people" part). Does it help?

Dude. She's so nasty!

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I sometimes think Uma is very pretty in that strikingly odd and unusual way, much like Rossy de Palma.
