Wash ,'War Stories'
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.
I can't wait till there's a Sci-Fi channel movie about giant killer Don Sphynxes.
Hee.
It would probably involve scientists trying to genetically engineer the perfect pet, or a crazy scientist trying to genetically engineer a Don Sphynx/human hybrid.
Dang, this is the morning of slacker ennui, isn't it? Or are most b.org mornings like this and I'm just too busy to read it?
I have two sleeping children, a load of laundry in the washer, and a cup of coffee at my desk. Despite the stack of grading next to it, I'm counting this morning as a "win."
this photograph is the result of digitally averaging every Playboy centerfold foldout for the 10 years beginning Jan. 1988 through Dec. 1997. The shroud-like image is yielded by a simple, custom process: point-by-point mathematical averaging. No special "morphing" is used.

Strega, will you write me a note for work? I just don't wanna go.
You're already at a computer. You're upright and everything! The rest is easy. I couldn't get out of bed for two hours after I woke up. I finally convinced myself to come in by deciding that I could leave early on Friday. So you can do that, too.

This is why I take Fridays off whenever I can and turn my Thursdays into Fridays. Easy peasy.
This book is people:
As long as I don't actually think about it, there's a nice dotty sort of 19th-century leave-your-body-to-science-ness about that. And I know exactly what to do the next time I'm presented with the hide of a dear friend who's been flayed by the vicious heathen savages . (Whitefonted for the squeamish. As if you couldn't have guessed.)
