Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
STEPHANIE!! Two days, two rock stars. Most excellent.
YAY Stephanie!
The sympathy angle. I totally hadn't thought of that. I could be one of those fans that everyone hates.
I think fandom should spot you a get-a-sympathy-hug moment. We've been all sane and productive for a really long time!
(Although any licking really ought to be saved for the last day of the con as to make it less traumatic when they yoink our badges. Heh.)
Stephanie, I already posted my congrats in Bitches, but hot damn, woman. You are a force to be reckoned with. CONGRATULATIONS!
Breaking news on MSNBC (no actual story yet):
Louisiana governor says all of New Orleans must be evacuated
Huh?
Have things gotten much worse recently?
Wentworth Miller has a degree from Princeton and is of Jamaican descent.
I am so easily charmed. It's pretty sad.
It's still flooding, and I think the logistical difficulties (food, potable water, sanitation) are too much for the city to handle, with all of the flooding and damage.
CNN:
Rising waters force evacuation of tens of thousands who sought refuge in New Orleans rescue centers, state governor says. More soon.
Crap.
Have things gotten much worse recently?
The latest figures I saw online were that 80% of the city is flooded. It's as bad, flood-wise, as if it had been hit head on, with the category 5 storm. The levees are giving, and the water keeps pouring in.
