ita's a mutant. It explains so much.

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...

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.

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.

never ever heard of a "sesamoid" until today.

In horses, they're one of the more tricky fractures. A lot of the spectacular racetrack fatalities are sesamoid fractures, where the bone just shatters and takes the whole ankle with it.

Sesamoid

That's the new word that I've learned today.

Oh, and here's a numbers riddle. It's an eeeevil riddle, it took me forever to solve it (cutting down vegetables for 2 big salads for all the guests on the holiday, plus most of washing the dishes afterwards): to construct the umber 21 out of 1, 5, 6 and 7. All four of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations are allowed, and only them. Each number must be used in the calculations exactly once.

everybody's fancy, everybody's fine
your body's fancy, and so is mine!

OK, nice that I skimmed through a bunch of posts, and the only thing I want to do is ask bon to help me with my homework:

JZ, if you're a non-citizen that's been wrongfully denied welfare benefits from the NYC HRA administration, Come On Down! You've just made tens or even dozens of dollars!

Were there any nonprofits involved with that, like an amicus brief or whatever?

I can't seem to get it up for these people. They didn't know they had to get permission to perform a musical that belongs to someone else?

I don't understand.
