20th Century Arthurian series? what? details, please!
Also, Connie, I was reminded of you and DH - at the police and firefighter games the Norwegian team wore horned helmets (I think he'd have appreciated the spirit, if not the inaccuracy). And they wore them at least once going through a shopping mall.
Well, the horned helmets are ceremonial, so wearing them in a competition works.
Firefighter competitions are very cool.
Catching up in Natter, followed some links and found this, and found it touching:

All these people saying they never got their Hogwarts letter: you got the letter. You went to Hogwarts. We were all there together.

Do I want to see
Paper Towns
next week? I haven't read any John Green.
Apparently the movie is cute. It wasn't my favorite John green book though I liked it didn't but it is probably the best one to turn into a movie. I hope to see it.
In a fit of complete irresponsibility, I fell victim to Unshelved's adorable card catalog USB drives.

Then I was further seduced in getting it with the PDFs of all their collected comics.
I've decided to back up all the fic I've ever downloaded to it. Because card catalog.
On the plus side, I paid for it with the money I've received from selling figs and gaming thingies. Trading things I don't have a use for for things I want. Kind of like barter.
Unshelved is good stuff! And those USB drives are adorable.
How did I miss that Unshelved has two more books that I haven't read?? So glad they charge so little for Priority Mail!
