As I've said before, I gave up brontosaurus but I am not giving up Pluto as a planet. We're allowed to make exceptions, dammit.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I can't give up Pluto, either. I mean, I grew up playing chinese checkers with its discoverer. (Which is how I know of the wailing and gnashing of teeth involved in naming it. He said he first threatened to propose the name Goofy for what became Charon just to watch people go wacko.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Now I have a completely different view of Judge Shira Scheindlin.
I'm just here to help.

There is a fire in the building next to ours. We all smell it and now we are getting announcements in our building: "Attention Attention, there is NOT a fire in this building. Repeat, the building is NOT on fire." Calming.

What is even happening?
I'm not even giving up brontosaurus. Screw them, and the metric system they rode in on.

Also, I think I might want Jilli's swirly bat logo as a tattoo.
Heh. That swirly bat is indeed my next tattoo. I'm getting one on each arm, just above my wrist.

Pluto's qualifications for being one of that elite group of nine don't really stand up. It's not even as big as the Moon.

Bottom line? No take-backs, Gud.

It's exactly the kind of simple/strong/pretty design I like.
