ita is always wrong. Gus is always right. If you are a new Buffista, you should always recall these salient facts.

Cleaning out my trash I see that Thunderbird has decided that a message with the subject "Date Single Christians" is junk. Ya think?

Time for me to say g'night. I'm going to crawl in bed with a book as it has been a long day.

You know. I make the jokes. Some of them fall flat.

I can't imagine the sort of mud that stays cool while you're wering two mm of it.

I fan-wanked it to be that the mud is cool at first, and it also provides some cooling due to evaporation. So maybe he's invisible to Predator for a few minutes.

I can't believe I fan-wanked Predator.

Best line: "I ain't got time to bleed."

Wearing mud makes you feel cool, in my brief experience...

Also, I totally did a flammability science fair project! It was AWESOME -- I got to play in the basement with a blow torch and baby clothes. Sweet.

I'd be freaking out if I ran into a 14 year old that couldn't read.

Not least because an illiterate 14 year old will have a much harder time learning to read than an illiterate person of younger age. The reason you go to school at a tender age is so that civilization can print all its little keys into your tender soap-bar. There's also the part where it's got to be pretty humiliating, trying to learn to read as an adult and realizing that second graders might have more mastery than you.

I just finished So Yesterday, a novel by Scott Westerfeld about branding and cool-hunting. It was a pile of cockamamie -- it relied on the assumption that seeking cool is a universal experience -- but it was an entertaining pile of cockamamie. I think after reading it a lot of teenagers (it is YA) would be suddenly ripping holes in their logoed shirts in hopes of being so anti-cool that they become cool again. It is a whole big cycle of cool, which anybody who has seen me in toe socks will attest tends to fly over my head.

I've worn a mud mask. Hooey, I say, pure hooey.

Jesse, I think that Jilli is jealous of you.

"I ain't got time to bleed."

But he had time to die. He needs to prioritise.

Apparently, someone corrected my spelling on another board. Apparently it's prioritize. Who knew?

Jesse, I think that Jilli is jealous of you.

As well she should be, really.

Who knew?

Americanz.

It's like The Who all over again....

BROOKLYN CENTER, Minn. -- Police shut down a suburban shopping mall for several hours Saturday after screaming fans of the boy band B5 rushed the stage during a free concert.

Five people suffered minor injuries, police said.

More than 2,000 fans, mostly teenage girls, had converged on Brookdale Center mall for the show, sponsored by the local Radio Disney station, KDIZ-AM. The band had only made it to the second song when the chaos broke out and girls began rushing the stage.

"It just seemed like a girl frenzy," said Christopher Taykalo of Radio Disney. "A lot of young teenage girls who were trying to get close to their artists that they are huge fans of."

A "girl frenzy"? Shit, man - call out the National Guard!

For those of you needing a recap: Jesse lives in New York and does strange things to babies in her basement.

Wearing mud on your face ... it is a Buffistas thing.
