and people are just odd about being mean p-c.
I think the Bitches would appreciate my friend's take on it:
Spectral Bovine: People are fuckheads.
Spectral Bovine: It even mentions the page.
mineownaardvarks: Oh for crying out loud.
mineownaardvarks: Why would someone do that?
mineownaardvarks: Seriously.
mineownaardvarks: What would be the pleasure someone would get out of that?
mineownaardvarks: Hate.
mineownaardvarks: Maybe it's the Pope. :-P
mineownaardvarks: "In a statement Saturday, the Holy Father condemned the books as wiles of the Devil, adding 'Also, in book six, Hermione dies, and Seamus Finnegan is the Half Blood Prince. So ha ha.'"
Later:
mineownaardvarks: Maybe this is the terrorists' new diabolical plan.
mineownaardvarks: "What are they celebrating?" "A new book-- there are bookselling parties everywhere, joy and capitalism unabated..." "SPOIL IT FOR THEM."
mineownaardvarks: Then they get back to bin Laden and are all proudly, "We told them X happens!'" and bin Laden is like "YOU FOOL! I HAVE NOT GOTTEN THAT FAR YET! MY AMAZON.COM COPY ONLY ARRIVED THIS MORNING!"
DH was thrilled at the B&N crowd - because there had to be at leasst 400 people buying books.
Hee - terror threat level red, indeed.
I note that The Leaky Cauldron and other HP sites are dead as Dumbledore. (I haven't read it yet - not a spoiler - joking)
Raquel is very brave.
I just made the menu for Toto's birthday party next Friday. Also did a breakdown of what needs to be done every day to make sure we're ready for the party on Friday. I'm getting excited.
So question: just how weird would it be to tell some woman you're interested in, "I'm a great guy and make a wonderful partner, but don't just take it from me, here's my wife's number"?
As Robin says, I don't think that would go well on a first date (though really, bless Bec for the offer).
This is what I looked like about an hour ago, when my hair was bleached and standing straight up.
Cutie!
I may have missed the plan. Are you bleaching prior to another blue application, or are you changing colors?
Hee. I like the conversation with Osama, above. TERROR BOOKS!
I have not yet bought Harry Potter. I am afraid if I buy it right now, I will read it today. And I have a long flight to read it on tomorrow! But I know if I wait until tomorrow, events will conspire to have all the stores I try to go to sold out, or something.
How old will Toto be?
7
And 52 days later you can celebrate Toto's 50th human analogue birthday!
