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

Oh, I'm sad about Just Legal! Not that I'd watched it, but the kid (the one from Million Dollar Baby) is a friend of a friend. A Montrealer, to boot.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I can't speak from personal experience, but I suspect the "no sounds or expressions of pain" thing won't last terribly long once labor really gets going. Especially without drugs.

I can't be the only one who likes the idea of a painkiller-free Katie Holmes having a moment of clarity in her 27th hour of labor when the couch-hopping midget approaches within arm's reach to admonish her for not being quiet enough...

Are Scientologists against all medication or just psychopharmacology?

Supernatural has been given a full season go by the WB.

Very glad to hear this. I'm hoping Criminal Minds, the show I tape during Lost and watch after it's over, keeps going. The blurbs (written by CBS publicists, natch) are calling it a hit show, so that's encouraging, but it's up against Lost and Veronica Mars, so it's got a lot of competition.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I think just any sort of psychiatric meds. It meakes sense that they'd fear anything having to do with psychiatry, since, you know, shrinks help deprogram the nutjobs.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

He was good in Undeclared. The few commentaries I half-listened to made it sound like he was playing himself, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

More than that, Allyson. If memory serves, L Ron Hubbard was kicked out of the American Pyschiatric Assoc, so the religion has a bit of a bone to pick with the whole field of psychiatry.

I don't understand how people trip and fall into such things, unable to get out.

This is total coolness:

Philips is totally rockin’ out with the concept products lately; besides the Chameleon Lamp we just brought you (hidden amongst a thick stack of other concept devices), they were also showing off an innovative DAP at the same Paris event. The “Tune In” is a flash-based player that both broadcasts its signal to nearby Tune In devices and can recieve tracks the same way. Philips envisions users becoming their own tiny radio stations, sharing their playlists on the subway, in the library, anywhere people congregate. Personally, we’re not so fond of letting others anonymously peruse our song cache (our raging Right Said Fred addiction would become instant fodder for gossip), but the idea of knowing that hot-stuff sitting near us on the bus is also too sexy for his/her shirt is strangely and disturbingly appealing.
