No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

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

I want Anthony Stewart Head for Aziraphale. Or Ian McKellan.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I see Crowley as more sinuous and lanky than Sheppard, but I don't know who that would be.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

My dream cast for Good Omens has been Fry and Laurie since I read it.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Fry & Laurie? yeah, much better than my suggestion of Caine.

Fry - Crowley and Laurie - Aziraphale? I could just about see it working either way...

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I believe Stephen Fry will be - or, possibly, has in the past - be in "Shakespeare in Klingon". They had a picture of him in the paper announcing it - he was in full costume, brow ridges and all.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

the question I have for you all: is this a good book?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

hmm. okay, let me start reading a sample chapter.

I could not finish American Gods, so that's why I asked.
