My house is freezing too, Alibelle. Well, not the den, which is where I am perched.
I'll ask DH whether or not he has access to an iBook power cord. He may.
Buffy: How bored were you last year? Giles: I watched 'Passions' with Spike. Let us never speak of it.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's nippy nippy nippy.
Need to work out what to wear shooting tomorrow. It's outdoors, which is good because the noise won't be so bad, but bad because crappy weather. Except when it's not.
Coach didn't have the purse in silver. Almost bought the black for instant gratification, but they'll Fedex me a silver at no extra cost, so why not? I suppose things like this happen when you spend a lot of money on not much.
I've watched most of the first season of Miami Vice, and some of the second, and these guys don't make many arrests. Lots of dead perps. But hey--random Penn Jillette. And upcoming Eartha Kitt.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm watching Kojak. There's some cognitive dissonance, as Bosley ( Charlies Angels ) is on it.

I see your cognitive dissonance and raise it a John Taylor. Sprain my brain, why don't you, Mr. Mann. I'm not optimistic about the new movie, just because they're not giving me enough to get excited about, but I do like the premise.

Ayup. Speaking role too. This show does have the best music. It must have cost them a mint to reacquire rights for DVDs.
Watching Adama do Santeria. Olmos is amazing. I can only remember him in these two roles, but he carries such an impressive laconic dignity. If you cast him as a poor gardener or something, it would make me sad right away, because it seems so wrong.

Do most shows opt for cheaper songs when released on DVD?
ION, Mission Impossible is on.
IStillON,
Imagine if you discovered one day that two of your three children were genetically not yours. Recriminations, marital troubles, perhaps a divorce, right? Now add a twist. What if you were these children’s mother? Suddenly the question becomes not “Who?” but rather “Huh?”
Yet that’s what happened to “Jane”. At the age of 52 when her children were full-grown, she and her children underwent genetic testing for a possible kidney transplant. Completely unexpectedly, two of her three children tested as genetically not hers. A mix-up of babies was ruled out, and she and her husband had not undergone in vitro fertilization, so it was absolute that her children were hers.
Jane, it turns out, is a human Chimera.
...
What happened to Jane is a much rarer. Rather than a simple exchange of blood, she and her fraternal twin merged in utero, leaving only one fetus. The cells in her body are a mosaic of genes from both of the original embryos. The cheek cells from which the genetic testing was done were from one of those embryos, but at least some of the cells in her ovaries came from the other.
Freaky.

Ayup. Speaking role too.Whoa.
Just whoa.
Jane, it turns out, is a human Chimera.This is just one of the freakier things that genetics can do, IMO.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
You know, we've talked about that chimera thing before.
It may have been in Bitches.
