It's Logan from VM all over again. Want to clean up your angry character? Give him a past of physical abuse. Voila!
I hope it doesn't retread that path, because Alex is no Logan.
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

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

The evil is this way?
Who is "GA"?
Okay, is Chicago similar to New York when it comes to baseball team loyalty? That is, are you rooting for the White Sox?
Pretty much. A lot of die-hard Cub fans will never root for the White Sox. (Some of the newer Yuppie fans will.) I am the product of a mixed marriage, so while my heart belongs to the Cubbies, I don't hate the White Sox. If they win, good for them. Whatever.
Also, did you get the messages I left you in-thread the other day, from Catriona, clarrie, Rachie and Seska?
I did. Thanks. I missers them too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
No, he really isn't.

Okay. I just had to know the line in the sand, baybee. :)

Hey, you forgot the part where you say, "And so I surfed right over to LiveJournal and registered. For free."

I don't suppose anyone know what Yule's coefficient Q is? Or does?

Ooo! The Botswana webcam is cool. I'm still cranky we didn't get Botswana for an overseas assignment, but I'll go there someday.
I just gave in to all the emails from Friendster and logged into it, for the first time in years. I looked up my college, and they list famous alums, including "Terry Gilliam (Monte-Python) [sic]." I'm wondering if I should bother correcting them.
Some Yemeni tribes have pretty clothes for women (you aren't supposed to photograph women there). And the official Muslim garb that Mahatir designed for Malaysian women is pretty, if polyester.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

For those times when just one efficient isn't enough?

Hmmm...
two lawyers representing witnesses in the Plame investigation have begun to surmise that Fitzgerald is now weighing a criminal conspiracy charge against a group of senior White House officials.
...
Who would those officials be? The list of possible candidates is long and includes Rove, Libby, Ari Fleischer, Cheney and -- if Stephanopoulos and his source are to be believed -- the president himself. The Post says that Fitzgerald could make his prosecutorial decisions as early as this week.
So it's possible Cheney - and Bush himself - may be charged with criminal conspiracy.

Stealth oppression!
It wasn't terribly stealthy at the time. He designed an official Malaysian garb for men also, but (at least the couple years I lived there) most men didn't wear it.
More burqa trivia: a few years ago Ethiopia made it legal for women to have their official ID photos (like passports) taken while wearing the full head covering. Most Western nations protested this as rendering the whole point of "photo ID" useless, but Ethiopia said that women weren't comfortable having their naked faces photographed.
I should look that up to see if they ever retracted it.
