If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, that's a toughie. If it was his team, whatever that is, it would be one thing. But to go just for the Rosebowl and not for a particular team that you love or hate - I dunno. Maybe that's best saved for another year.

The only sporting event I can fathom being worth $800 to attend would involve Ben Cohen celebrating victory by jumping into the stands... and my arms.

The chipped tooth freakout wasn't enough to do it the other week, but Jake Gyllenhaal has just pissed away any respect I had for him in a current Details interview by claiming that the Jack Twist character is straight.

Yeah, just like lots of straight guys who fall in love with another man, conduct a two-decade illicit affair, and while away the time in between meetings with male prostitutes in Mexico.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm left wondering exactly what Jake's litmus test for being gay is, and if any fictional characters outside Gordon Merrick novels have ever met it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm guessing "Not played by me" is a big criteria.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But he was just playing the bi card...strange man.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Do I look like Beyonce? I uploaded four pictures into this face recognition software (stolen from Victor), and Beyonce was #1 once, and in the top 4 the other three times. Also appearing often was Janet Jackson and Charlize Theron. It's pretty cool -- it obviously knows I'm black...inasmuch as "know" applies, and blonde. Most of my matches were one or the other.

Thanks, ita.

Your friend,

The software couldn't recognize a face on two of the pictures I uploaded—not a good sign. James Horner (who?) was my closest match at 64%, and one picture gave me a very flattering 62% matchup with Russel Crowe. But the frequent appearance of Andie McDowell was troubling, though I'd imagine it would be more so for her than for me.

Yeah, that software is cool-sounding, but 1, couldn't identify faces very easily-- even in pictures that were cropped to show only a face, and 2, seemed really pose and nose dependent, i.e., all the matches had in common was either the facial expression or the nose.

Bob's first match was Meryl Streep. We both got Fred Hoyle. I don't know who that is, but it's been awhile since he's seen the good side of 60.

ETA: for anyone out there who hasn't met me or Bob yet, just think of this guy: [link]
