Oh, he's on Scrubs. And you wouldn't have to send me a quarter, even if you could. It's a joke...long story. But apparently I could get into the elder stateswoman thing. But I don't mean porn by that.
Ok, Dr. Cox. I love scrubs
Angel: Yeah, I never told anyone about this, but I-I liked your poems. Spike: You like Barry Manilow.

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."

Tim Cox - Buffy: Anya, that thing you created burst through solid pavement and ate her dog.
Anya (anguished): Oooh, puppy!

Thrive to spite them
PC, I'm not sure. Part of the time I felt like Stevens was showing me what's going on in a room, but I was stuck standing behind him, only able to see the back of his head and an occasional glimpse over his shoulder and I knew that he wasn't giving me the whole story but I just couldn't see around him to get what was going on.
Then other times I felt like I could clearly see what was going on and there was Stevens, with his blinders, firmly seeing what he wanted to and I just wanted to shake him and say "Look! Just LOOK! for one second, be curious for one second!"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That's what's so great about the book! Oh, Stevens.

But we're on the internet - if you can't have porn here, what's it for?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I was just reading an old interview with Michael Chabon at Onion A.V. It was done right as K&K came out, so he hadn't won the Pulitzer or had a big hit yet.
He was talking about screenwriting and noting that he was basically obliged to supplement his novel writing income with screenwriting. Not just for the Hollywood money, but because his family's insurance came through the screenwriter's guild.
I both admire his innovative finessing of finances and family responsibility, and am slightly depressed by that.
Though I suppose he's made enough money off Kavalier & Klay by now that it's less necessary.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Calla, my mom recommends Water for Elephants, which came out last year and should be findable paperback and used and in libraries. I've never read it or even heard of it before, but she wouldn't have recommended it if she didn't think it was at least a decent read, and it's certainly got a ton of positive reviews on Amazon.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Today I finally finished The Remains of the Day only about 3 years after I first started it
Speaking of Kazuo Ishiguro, has anyone here ever read Never Let Me Go?

I've had Never Let Me Go on my TBR pile for a couple of years now--I've even taken it with me on vacation, but never got around to reading it. I swear that I will sometime this year.
