So, Nilly, did Google give you the gun or the band?
Don't kill anyone if you don't have to. We're here to make a deal.

Both. First it gave the band, but I figured that the band must be named after something, itself, so I kept digging. The "." before the "38" was a hint for a gun, too. [Edit: and I've learned that from movies/tv, so they're educational, as well.]

I assume it was the gun DX was thinking of when he suggested the name.
Maybe we'll also get Colt .45 and (so Israel can represent) .50 Desert Eagle. And the next generation of Buffistas will see .357 Magnum.

Hmm, say it takes roughly a month to burn through a Natter thread (very roughly - we're here for almost 3 years, and finished 37 Natter threads). So 357 months, or 357 Natter threads are nearly 30 years (from which we already gone through 3). Your Mal will be around my age by then!

Timelies! It's almost gronklies, but I'm beating back the gronk with some Kashi oatmeal and the love o' my kitties. Who mostly want to be fed, I suspect, but I'll take what help I can get.

I can't even.
Gronklies, all!
Woke up early due to the construction still going on outside my window. Somehow I hoped that almost three weeks away for vacation would have meant they had it mostly done. Sigh.
ION, back from vacation and going into work in an hour or so. I'll be going in as a blithe and relaxed spirit. I intend to try to stay that way for as many minutes as the office sitch permits.

Sounds like a plan to me!
I can't say my weekend was restful (well, technically I can say it) but it was accomplished, what with the cleaning and the other cleaning, and the laundry and the shopping and the setting up of electronics. My new! phone is programmed with numbers, iBob has music imported, I'm dressed (with shoes!) and ready as I'll get for work....

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