Buffistas

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.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Okay, I never saw Reunion, but how could anyone call Fastlane "quality programming"? I can understand people enjoying it for the mindless women and fast cars angle, but even those folks would realize it's lacking in any real substance. Right? Uh, right?

ETA: I see Yahoo news has chosen to change one of their headlines. It originally said "Man Shot By Cheney Leaving Hospital" which gave me images of him lying in wait outside a hospital in his hunting gear. It's now "Hospital Discharges Man Shot by Cheney". I guess I wasn't the only one misinterpreting.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My event planning fu is strong.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

I liked Fastlane. And I wasn't watching for the mindless women and fast cars. It was fun, and tightly paced, and funny. Enjoyable TV.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I gave Reunion a try. Gave up after 10 minutes when I realized that I already knew how that ep's story was going to unfold -- and that doesn't happen often.

Would you call it "quality television" though?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

They get a lot more expensive as you get into the mountains, so you might want to consider a more local place. A LOT.

Good advice. I think JZ thinks we're going to be able to get there without chains, but all anybody is talking about in the office today is how much snow there's going to be in the mountains.

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

They could have had:

"Man Discharged by Hospital Shot by Cheney"
"Man Leaving Hospital Shot by Cheney."
"Hospital Left by Man Shot by Cheney."
"Hospital Discharges Man Who Cheney Discharged Gun At."
"Cheney Discharges Gun; Hospital Discharges Man"
"Man Dischargee of Cheney Gun, Hospital."
