Relax, dude, its not like someone disliked the name of your hypothetical child.

Um, can we let kerfuffles that happened two days ago in a different thread that AFAICT have been amicably resolved lie?

Please?

That whole thing had much more to do with me than dw, I've apologized, and I wish I could take it back, but right now I'm just trying to do a laundry list of writers conference tasks, some of which involve pointless kerfuffles in their own right, while fighting off a cold with willpower and megadosed vitamin C.

HECUBUS, I AM LOOKING AT YOU, YOU BASEBALL LOVING FREAK!

You rang?

PS, HAVE I MENTIONED HOW CUTE MY CATS ARE???

The ones that try to eat your limbs?

That's okay, I'm still sending you Slings & Arrows. You cannot alienate my affection by yelling at me, Plei. Arouse me, maybe, but....

Don't know if someone posted this, as I am a mad post skipper, but it's hilarous. Fun parody

Joss Whedon Grocery List Garners Internet Buzz

I could almost believe it until the $2.5 million part.

The ones that try to eat your limbs?

SO CUTE! It's like they think I'm food.

Sports should seriously be against the law.

I don't know they need to be against the law, but there's really no reason to show them on the tv.

Great baseball tonight. Isn't it a blessing when the current season of OC gets pre-empted by sports? So many bad tv shows, playoffs so short.

<Heats up some nachos, pops open a beer and settles in to watch>

I'm suddenly craving lemonade, and I don't even really like the stuff.

Those are some cute cats, Perkins!

Sports on TV is why I watch all TV shows on DVD (or TiVo, back when I had TiVo). Although, I actually like watching baseball, and it doesn't seem like fall without a football game on in the background.

These days, the DH watched baseball via the internet, and we are catching up on Dead Like Me and Wonderfalls.

Hec, regarding Dead Like Me, what was your cryptic comment about Rebecca Gayheart? Did it have to do with her leaving the show?

Also, I will exchange quality olive oil, embassy swag, and/or Greek porn for Slings and Arrows on DVD.

Saturn Films' Norm Golightly

Huh. I had no idea "Golightly" was a real name.

Cage will next produce and star in "The Wicker Man" for writer-director Neil LaBute

NOOOOOOooooo!!!!

I realized I missed it this week. I enjoyed the first ep very much. My first love this season is still My Name is Earl. But both EHC and MNiE both have familiar senses of humor to me.

I caught my first My Name is Earl this week. I liked it, but I didn't yet love it. Last night's Everybody Hates Chris was better than last week, and very funny, but nothing (for me) tops the premiere. Scott and I had trouble breathing at one point. Thank goodness for TiVo and the ability to pause and rewind. Christopher finally thinks the title is funny. It really (understandably--he's 5) put him off, last week.

What kind of embassy swag are we talking about? Spy gear, classified documents, that kind of thing?

Python bursts, trying to digest aligator. [link]

MIAMI --The alligator has some foreign competition at the top of the Everglades food chain, and the results of the struggle are horror-movie messy.

A 13-foot Burmese python recently burst after it apparently tried to swallow a live, six-foot alligator whole, authorities said.

The incident has heightened biologists' fears that the nonnative snakes could threaten a host of other animal species in the Everglades.
