Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

JZ, clearly Katie was getting pregnant during those missing 16 days. They may have needed to try different style basters.

Silence means security silence means approval

I copy-check my email better than this woman copy-checks an application to the US Senate to become one of the most powerful people in the world.

Having edited hundreds of pages of poorly written copy, I can state for a fact that Miers' writing skills are on par with some of the best public health minds in the world.

This facts makes me weep for the English language and all other written languages.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Never saw that article before, JZ. That's highly disturbing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'd heard about the other actresses being approached, but not the missing 16 days.

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

I need to check it out to give you a definite answer, I don't want to make some unbased assumptions. Is that OK?

Of course.

ita, your body never ceases to amaze.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

ita's a mutant. It explains so much.

Always Anti-fascist!

The only thing that would make it better for me personally, JZ, is to see Frank Pembleton(or Munch...whee!) make the case. Which cannot happen as they are composites of real people and so, nsm, real, but...happy thought. "Did you think we were stupid, Mr. Delay?" Or, more definite justice: set him loose in the Pelecanos-verse and make sure he kicks a puppy. By the end of the book, his brains will be decorating a windshield in the District. More happy thoughts...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

erika, I'd really rather have G. Or, best possible case scenario, they find some semi-plausible excuse to hire Yaphet Kotto himself to do it, because, really? There could not possibly be any more inspiring sight than seeing Tom DeLay getting arrested by a gigantic Jewish black man from New York City.

Muttering in operatic Italian about honor, and vengeance, and, switching back to his perfect-yet-formal English, the public trust? Yeah, I could get behind that. Many times. Then he would make Mikey(?) take him away because he turns his stomach, or possibly, because if they are alone together for too long, Giardello wouldn't trust himself not to...become creative, in that old-school BPD way. Delay would wet himself. YK would be most honored at being selected...he's quite the activist and committed to African debt relief and such...he would think indictments couldn't happen to a nicer fella, I'm sure.

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

Sesamoid. The foot thing is something to do with my sesamoid. Yeah, my body makes me boggle too. Stupid thing.

A handheld device (100) comprises a plurality of ambulation mechanisms (222-224, 1002-1008) that enable the handheld device (100) to perform translations, rotations or compound movements on a surface (502) on which the device (100) is placed. Using the ambulation mechanisms (222-224, 1002-1008), the device (100) is able to communicate the occurrence of various events to a user via ambulation gestures that are recognized by the user. Ambulation gestures can be programmed by the user. Disclosed ambulation mechanisms (222-224, 1002-1008) comprise linear (302, 700, 800) or rotary (1018, 1102) vibration transducers that are mechanically coupled to elastic feet (226-228, 606-608, 1110) that have an asymmetric tread (402). The asymmetric tread (402) is effective to convert vibration generated by the vibration transducers (302, 700, 800, 1018, 1102) to movement forces tangential to the surface (502) on which the device (100) is placed.

or, in other words, Motorola's patented a phone that dances when it rings. Customisably, too, perhaps.
