I AM KRISTEN.

Oh good! Kristen's mortgage is due. You should get on paying that.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

A One that isn't cold, is scarcely A One at all.

NBC has that cool sybiotic thing with SCIFI and shared BSG. Depending on the type of show that could come in handy no?

Gay's still trendy, right?

I think there might be a backlash now. The real not-AICN-talkback-forums kind.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

What's trendy is being a housewife acting like a queen. Sex in the Suburbs or some shit.

Allyson, if you can make it so they'll need a martial arts consultant, that'd be great.

I can pitch a comedy about a Krav instructor with a constant cold.

I am totally earwormed now with I Want to Break Free.

ita, I think I understand what you mean. I guess if what he's saying is that absolutely anyone is good enough at something to be in GF, I completely agree with you. To me the hook was that anyone might have the skill/knowledge they need at a given time. If that distinction makes any sense outside of my muddled head.

Oh, and I keep meaning to pass this on to you. Warren Ellis was rambling about next year's Heroes Con:

I'm thinking about buying table space and setting a velvet rope up around it. I could have it listed in the convention book as my Compound. And it looks like we'll be arranging some kind of adults-only evening talk, where I don't have to keep it clean and can talk about things like Alcohol, Porn, Hate and Shagging. [...] Thank god I have a year to work up the strength for it. Am now taking applications for Female Bodyguard Squad.

I thought of you. I bet he's only half-joking.

Remember, remember/the fifth of November/the Gunpowder Treason and Plot/I see no reason/Why Gunpowder Treason/Should ever be forgot.

He isn't joking. In the days of the Warren Ellis Forum, he had a half dozen female moderators enforcing his will and wreaking unholy vengenance on trolls. Several of them tend to show up at his US appearances and continue to do so...

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

In fact the run of Thief Of Hearts, De-Clawed, Aidan, Little Girl Lost and Gem feels very Angel season two to me.
