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

Bon, it was on either Metafilter or Slashdot.

Poor shrift and shrift's people. That sucks.

Why did they have to put the first hour of a 2 hour CSI at the same time as the OC? I'm not THAT invested, but I hate missing the first half of stuff so bleh. Ah well, at least I've gotten to the point where I actually have a vcr....

Boss was superquestionhaving about what tasks are what and stuff today. Considering my performance eval discussion got postponed for a budget meeting in light of a 10% budget cut....my brain could go to upretty places. But it won't!

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

The fiancee of a guy I work with is in this episode of CSI. She plays a dispatcher of some sort and was mostly in scenes with Gary Dourdan. She reported that Tarantino gave her lots of direction, which she expected since she had never been there before, and hasn't done much television, but that Dourdan was all up in there with QT asking questions and going over the script and trying things. She thought that was odd since he must know the character, but I said, "Hey, if you had a chance to be directed by Tarantino, one of the great actor's directors around, you'd take as much advantage of it as you could." I did NOT mention that Rachel (the fiancee) was working one-on-one for hours with one of the most handsome men on earth, one who she reported was "very friendly"...well, not more than two or three times anyway.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Is anyone else watching CSI?

hip deep in pie

CTV are showing CSI and not the finale of the OC! Damn them!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm trying to go back and forth between CSI and the OC, but I missed the first 10-15 minutes of both, anyway.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Bon, it was on either Metafilter or Slashdot.

Thanks. I hadn't really appreciated how far back the usenet archives went and so I poked around there a bit-- even finding 20-year-old posts that pretty much sound like bureau posts. Google's got a great timeline of "great moments in usenet."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Shrift, strength to you and yours.

that abandoned asylum site is great

Last summer, I took my own illicit midnight tour of one of the buildings here [link] In the panoramic photo halfway down the page, it's the building left of center. Some gorgeous photos of the whole complex can be found here [link] and in this fascinating book [link] .

Oh no! Donna from West Wing (I'm pretty sure) is playing Amber Frey??? (Of Scott Peterson fame.)
