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.

Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

"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.

Didn't West Wing run new episodes already this season?
TV president Martin Sheen tugged at America's heartstrings on Sunday night when he paid a personal tribute to late The West Wing co-star John Spencer at the beginning of the new season of the political drama. The new season of the show will begin with Spencer's final episodes. The actor died of a heart attack on December 16th. Sheen, who plays President Jeb Bartlett on the hit show, took a moment to remember his pal, stating, "Good evening. On December 16 we lost our good friend and colleague John Spencer. Through our shock and grief, we can think of no more fitting memorial to this wonderful man, this extraordinary actor, than to share with you, beginning tonight, the last few months of his work here on The West Wing. Johnny, it seems we hardly knew you, we love you and we miss you."

Don't make me cry! I love their specs.
Every time I take my 2000 V6 Jetta into the shop I rent a car for the day. The Beetles don't interest me. The 2006 Jettas actively irritate me. The 2006 Passats leave me cold. The rental guys try to talk the cars up to me, but when I tell them what I drive normally they shrug. The last thing to try is a Tuareg--I have a no-extra-charge rental of one of those due me. But I don't want an SUV.
And I have no reason to think that 2007 will fix things. Not only do I not like the 2006 Jetta engines, I don't like their interiors or how they look.
