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

I think I may have just found my father's day present.

So if I gave myself a bruise on Sunday which turned all sorts of cool colors yesterday, but today turned into a bump and also itches a little, should I worry about it?

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

I'm looking for a Father's Day present. But since my dad works for the gov't that wouldn't be such a good choice.

I wouldn't be inclined to worry about the bruise just yet.

Trudy, just read your Beep Me post. Is there any compelling reason for you to extend the courtesy of a returned phone call to the bitchformer boss? If not, I say let her stew over not being the boss of you for a while.

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

Oh seperate post because a completely unrelated topic. Does anyone know if pilots use written checklists for takeoff? Or do they just rely on memory?

"Why would pilots need a checklist?" asks ita. "Surely the show bible is really simple at that point -- they'd probably have fewer details to keep track of before ... wait, why are you calling it takeoff? Is that a Variety term, or something?"

Honestly, till DX's answer, I was totally confused.
