Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

I want to start posting some of my longer fic over at LJ. Is there a word or character limit to posts?

Yes, there is a word/character limit. The maximum post length allowed by LiveJournal is 65,535 bytes or characters.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Anne, I find that a link to the story on my LJ page works as well as anything.

Thanks, all!

If I only had a brain...

Read my lips: No. More. Tongue. Duels. Unless there are actual tongue-swords or tongue-guns.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

In an "oh, dear" category (taken from one of the fic LJs):

I'm a beta looking for authors :) If anyone happens to need an editor, I like editing, and I am a stickler for grammer/spelling/proper usage of words.

God knows I suck at spelling and grammar, so far be it for me to point a finger, but I would think that if you're writing a post *offering* your service as a beta, the least you can do is to spellcheck your post.

Oh, yes. Absolutely.

Vonnie, I feel your pain.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Yeah, the misspelling of "grammar" gets me every time. It's like irony from on high.

In other news, why is SGA having a flamewar over Rodney? And why is it slopping over onto my flist? Go away! Shoo!

I didn't know about it, then I saw something at Merry's LJ (which was about something else), then made a mistake of following the trail and... oy.

I like SGA and all, but when did it stop being a cute and kind of awkward yet promising sister show to SG-1 and get itself transformed to this year's Smallville?

Oh, do tell. Is it the whole "McKay is sexy/no he's not" argument?
