I've liked/kept up with Alexie since my early Salon.com TT days (1995 or so), where he was a regular poster.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

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."

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
My favorite was when he said in re the Bering Strait landshelf deal: "No, we're really first. Neener." Or something adult like that. But it almost really made me rotfl, with my two drops of native blood and all that.

We go back to the Trail of Tears in four easy generations. But I still can't be real Indian, though. No jump shot.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
My family (OK, one great-grandmother's family) somehow skipped the whole Trail of Tears trip. Not sure how they managed it, but they ended up in North Carolina.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I really like the Jane Austen mystery series by Stephanie Barron, but it started before this craze really took off.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Oh, I've read one of those, and I agree it was perfectly enjoyable.
