Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If you don't think that that there's anyone evil in your office -- It's YOU.

Hee! Luckily, I am EXCELLENT at judging other people, and can always tell that I'm the good one.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

And is by all accounts a nice guy.

Well, he left behind a couple of Texas Rangers who weren't wild about him, and the snipe-fests of this spring were not nice on either side. I suspect he's just the most awkward, overmanaged man this side of Tom Cruise, and if you could sit him down and get him talking about his beanie baby collection* he would be a pleasant conversationalist.

* No, I don't actually have any idea what his hobbies are.

In other news, hey, if your upper back suddenly stops functioning, so that you have to breathe through stiffness and can't stand up from a chair, that is back spasms, right?

Cause I am having them, and it is not cool. Advil is really the only recourse at work, isn't it?

What is even happening?

That's a pity.

I don't know. It sounds like you have something out of line, or something else unpleasant, though. I hope you feel better.

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

If you could take the people out of religions, they might suddenly get a lot more perfect.

Much more pointless, but it's a balancing act.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Watched the Colbert Report (or as I like to think of it, "My Secret Boyfriend's New Show Where He Sends Me Secret Love Messages Through His Eyes") last night. Thought is was awfully funny, but agree that it might not hold up over the long run.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

If all the evil people would just join evil religions, like Satanism, things would be a whole lot simpler.

When mr. flea's upper back goes out, it can be fixed by him lying down and me very firmly applying pressure with one hand on each side of his spine near the affected area, hands not quite parallel. There is an audible crunch, and then he is better. You may not choose to have amateur chiropracty done by your cow-orkers, though.

I, for one, find Derek Jeter to be evil. Handsome (many think), shit-eating grin, rich, talented, gets lots of (tacky) women? All the signs.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

"My Secret Boyfriend's New Show Where He Sends Me Secret Love Messages Through His Eyes"

I thought this was Prison Break.

Oh, you mean YOUR secret bf.

Does Derek Jeter have a sidekick?

Yes.
