"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I find men in drag very pretty and very attractive. JRM in that frock in Velvet Goldmine? Swoony.

Also, I loves me some JRM. And I certainly even adore Hayden more when he is all femme. But to me, there's a difference between Velvet Goldmine androgyny, gender bending, smoldery Ewan-in-eyeliner femme, and drag.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I just want to cuddle the ugly dog. Poor little thing.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I just want to cuddle the ugly dog. Poor little thing.

Pfft. You weren't nearly so understanding about the possum.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Possums are biological throw-backs. That thing's just...unnatural.

Ok, that's not helping, is it?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Possums are marsupials, and thus clearly unnatural.

Maybe this is useful only as a reminder that Judith Miller is in jail while Robert Novak continues to walk the earth as a free man

Eh. Miller was ordered to take the fall for Rove. If she didn't go to jail for a bit she'd never work again. I personally think she should be jailed just for all the propaganda about the WMDs that were in Iraq.

Possums are WAY cuter than that dog.

Yay Nora (and Tom, natch)!

I thought I'd remembered Rescue Me as being fun at some points.

Did you get to the final revelation about Sully yet? It made ME laugh, at least.

Ann, that's a ferret.

ita, did your family get through Dennis ok?

And I certainly even adore Hayden more when he is all femme.

With a vaguely late-'60s Julie Andrews vibe, no less.

I personally think she should be jailed just for all the propaganda about the WMDs that were in Iraq.

I feel guilty for agreeing with that sentiment.

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

Thanks for asking, Fred -- they're fine.
