I realise I have a thing for thrown weapons. There's Spike throwing the knife to Buffy in the snotmonster episode, forever enshrined, and Supernatural last night had a nice moment were Sam tossed Dean a necklace at the same time Dean tossed him a shotgun. Hot.

Looks like there are a couple more Eyes eps to become available. I'll put the first four on a DVD, and mail out three copies to start trees. By the weekend.

No, it was the new one with Rupert Everett and Ian Hart.

I didn't realize they made one recently. Was it good?

I liked it a lot, but I'm biased in favor of anything Rupert Everett's in. It was made in 2004, and while there were some bits that seemed a bit anachronistic to me I still enjoyed it greatly.

It was very enjoyable.

Ummm, Eyes tree? Could I be a leaf please?

Salon's Michael Scherer tells us that Patrick Fitzgerald has just arrived at the federal courthouse in Washington. On his way in, Fitzgerald was asked if today's the day for indictments. He declined to comment, then boarded an elevator for the grand jury room.

Ooh, the elevator. Does that mean he's carrying extra-heavy indictments?

Also,

As Patrick Fitzgerald discusses the fate of Bush administration officials with a federal grand jury, Judy Miller is discussing her own fate with the New York Times. After engaging in a public pissing match with Times editor Bill Keller, Miller might not have much left to discuss. But the Wall Street Journal says that Miller had a face-to-face meeting with Times publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr., Monday, and that the words "severance package" are now on the table.

As long as there's severance.

I can't believe I missed Sheryl Swoopes coming out of the closet.

Go, Sheryl Swoopes!

But this:

"The talk about the WNBA being full of lesbians is not true," Swoopes says. "There are as many straight women in the league as there are gay.

Kind of makes me laugh, because don't people generally agree that at most 10% of the general population is gay? If the WNBA is 50-50, that counts to me as "full of lesbians." And I should know, what with my LESBIAN LOVER and all.

because don't people generally agree that at most 10% of the general population is gay?

That's what I hear a lot. But I've also heard that % is too high - the % of gay men is lower and the % of lesbians lower still.

I know nothing of the methodology of this data.

If the WNBA is 50-50, that counts to me as "full of lesbians."

Is the lesbian cup half-full or half-empty?

Oh, and I think this wins the "Not Helping Things" award:

TEHRAN, Iran - Iran’s hard-line president called for Israel to be “wiped off the map” and said a new wave of Palestinian attacks will destroy the Jewish state, state-run media reported Wednesday.

That's why I said "at most."

That's why I said "at most."

Sorry - my brain is still asleep, I think.
