Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Some people are seeing the conflict over primate ownership as something larger than monkey business -- a question of government power. Taking a libertarian view, Joseph Kirkland doesn't think he should be punished for the perceived mistakes of other monkey owners. An National Rifle Association member, he channels that group's resentment toward people who want to legislate his life. "Just like my gun," he says, "They're going to have to pry my monkey from my cold, dead hand."

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

All this monkey.

I have to admit that I've sent off an email incorporating stuff we've covered in class so far. Still moving too slowly, though.

Is there a sort of colour blindness that'd explain sunburst yellow socks with black shoes, navy (I think- it's dark under the desk) pants and a business blue shirt? Or is it flair?

Dressing in the dark? Laundry day?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Congratulations, Jilli! It's been a good week for buffistas, at least career wise.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

On Gilmore Girls:

With her pinky !!!

I think the apples in my apple muffin mix have fermented or something. Is that even possible?

Congratulations, Jilli!

Damnit. After six years of carefully guarding my email address, it appears the spammers have finally found it.

Ah well, 2 a day isn't too bad.
