Plei, my big fat stubby size 6 feet love Merrells, but my latest loves are Keens (I'm wearing a black Bronx pair right now AIFG!) and Crocs. The Crocs are goofy but unbelievably comfortable and freakishly light. Not sticky or clammy, and dry quickly when doused.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

So I'm driving home, not really listening to the radio and then something just sounds....strange. I'm not really hearing what I think I'm hearing. It's gotta be a coincidence.
Nope.
I about choked on air. Made MUCH more sense in the context of the station when they announced the artist.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Travelista question from someone who only goes anyplace but once a year if that: I know Travelocity and Orbitz and individual airline websites, but are there any other online places I should be checking for fares?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yahoo Travel.
But then I travel by air even less often than JZ....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
sidestep.com, although I usually end up back at travelocity.

Ooh, cheaptickets. I should look at them for Montreal. I'm down $100 from when I started looking, but still. Too much.

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

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
William Peter Blatty had Father Merrin expound on demonic possession, and I assume he did beaucoup research on the official Catholic position. According to said fictional priest, the demon wasn't actually supposed to be able to touch the soul or will of its innocent host, just do awful things to/with the body. The possession was actually a spiritual attack on those around the possessed (including the exorcist), intended to drive them into despair and sin.
I think it's demon 1, Father Daniel 0 in this case.

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