Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

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."

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I don't know if it's the correct term; just that I've heard it before.

Looks like it googles well. Now to find the womb/birthing term.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

paisleys are symbolic of the womb. I know that's not what you're looking for but it's a fun fact I like to share often.

What a great bookstore! Now, they just have to get themselves featured on Ace of Cakes for some national TV recognition--maybe they can order a funky theme cake for an event?

Oh, the storefront has been on Ace of Cakes. And they've been on the Daily Show..

and for something else Waters-related...some news magazine program.

The most funny thing about that story for me is that it says their record label puts out Country music cds. er...not so much.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is the label really Atomic Twang? I can see from that thinking it might be country, but really--verify your assumptions, people.

I love the surnames in that article. Huffiness. Whang. Too cool.

And, uh, book stuff.

It is Atomic Twang and, really, if you look at the roster on their site:

the bands are almost almost all described as being "alt-country"

We, however, are not.
