I think my favoite fairy tale is "The Matchstick Girl." I loves me some bleak HCA.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Don't apply whipped cream till serving time, since pie is not so good at observing distinctions between substances. Ornage pie is good, but creamiscle pie, NSM.
Good to know, thanks! I'll be carting the pie about 90 miles, so odds are mixing would take place. Sort of like those earthquake simulators where the ground liquifies and everything sinks. Only with pie and whipped cream.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I read The Matchstick Girl once. I got it. I didn't need that again. God, the man was bleak. Didn't they remake that with the Rudy girl?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Groupwise (Novell) had a great and completely transparent recall -- if you hadn't read it, it disappeared from your inbox.
That's what we have at school! But I have never recalled a message. Now I want to do that all the time.

Pros of Groupwise:
- transparent recall
- delayed send (you can make it look like you were in the office until 7)
- detailed status (you can see not only if what you've sent has been read, but if it's been deleted)

I intend to vote, but I can't figure out who's running, or why I should vote for or against any of them! It's city council and school board, which means they're probably various flavors of liberal democrat environmentalists, but how can I know what flavors?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
For some reason I'm convinced that's my favourite fairy tale, although it feels modern for a fairy tale. I have no substantiation for that.
Well, Andersen wrote it in the nineteenth century, so compared to a lot of fairy tales it isn't all that old.

Part of my job involves sending out mass emails to, like 10,000 people all working here. The first one I did, I had my boss proof and she missed something, so she had me recall it. I corrected it and sent it again, and then HER boss asked us to recoll it and change something. Then I sent it again.
I feel like every one of those 10,000 people hates me personally now, since what we are sending is basically spam (we want them to take our classes).
