This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Coding and Sleeping

I've been inside the backseat of one of those, it is really roomy. Just out of curiosity one time I looked at how much one would cost, and I discovered that cruise control wasn't even an option. I wonder why Toyota would do that.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I yearn for a scion xB because I think it is soooo cute!

Also, I somehow printed out (overnight) on my work public printer 300 million pages of TWOP Veronica Mars forums. I wasn't even trying to print it! I hope no one much looked at it!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

If a movie is ever made of Devil In The White City, Mark Sheppard should play HH Holmes.

Good call! (I'd love to see a movie made of DitWC, even if they completely took out the Daniel Burnham storyline.)

Colbert/Bullet Point For EVER!!!!1!

My favorite moment in The Word was when Bullet Point was trying to figure out Stephen's trigger word and said, "Bilbo Baggins?" Stephen's reply was "Nice guess, but no."

That made me laff and larf.

There was something on that or TDS that I so wanted to remember so I could tag it, but I've spaced on it completely today.

Dear European Universities,

Please stop changing your email schemas willy nilly. The beauty of institutional email is its consistency. Changing everyone's email addresses every couple of years just is stupid.

Signed,

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I was reading an article about Sharon and saw this statement:

One of Sharon's sons spoke to him, and the 77-year-old leader's blood pressure increased.

why is this significant?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

why is this significant?

Excitement in response to an external stimulus.

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

I wish I ever drove anywhere that cruise control was an option. Other than coming from MI to LA, I haven't used it in years.

It looks like Scion may be losing control of their target market. Last report I read said they wanted to discourage adults from buying their cars, because it was supposed to be the low-cost Kool Aid that gets teens hooked on the Toyota line--and that can't work if Mum drives one too.

I drove in among at least three charcoal grey Acura TLs. I like the car, and I love the colour, but I'm bored already. I think it was the TSX I was coveting--I only saw one of those, and it was silver. Which is the ultimate boring LA car colour.
