I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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

Gus! Gus! Gus!

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Jessica, all of the engineers in bunny suits are funny. She was the shorter one, often holding a camera. Not that it matters, but, you know.

She also has photos she took in the book that Steve Sqyres wrote.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Pretty sure I pointed her out correctly, then. Neat!

Here's an interesting article from the Washington Post, especially for anyone invoved in the Buffista Cookbook - Can a recipe be stolen?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's not really my issue.

I meant to open with, "I was just talking about podiatrists last night!" That was the segue between what you had to talk about, and what I had to talk about.

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

HA! OH! We were supposed to hear the thought from your head. I wasn't listening hard enough.

Buffy gets blamed for slaying both WB and UPN.

Man, I got nothing.

If you really cared, you would know what I was thinking.

I cared. Can you please order me in some dinner? Or better yet, some breakfast?
