You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

We discovered what happened with our delivery. Apparently "3PM" in our language means "5:35" in driver-speak. We're not quite sure how you get 5:35 from 3:00.

Also, the chair's still five minutes late and counting.

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

Isaac Hayes quits South Park:

Stone told The AP he and co-creator Trey Parker "never heard a peep out of Isaac in any way until we did Scientology. He wants a different standard for religions other than his own, and to me, that is where intolerance and bigotry begin."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tomorrow, as the usual run-up to a physical I am having blood taken. Of course, it's fasting blood levels. Unfortunately, the earliest they could get me in is 10:45. This isn't gonna be fun.

Has anyone tried ordering prints from Flickr?

I'm interested in this, too. Seems like a cool way to go, if the quality is any good.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I have to go back to jury duty tomorrow.

I knew Monday was trying to take over the rest of the week, but I didn't realize it had government support for its efforts.

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

OK, that's bordering on Darwin awards, and might have qualified if the TV hadn't blown up: "Hmmm, smells like gas. Better not light that cigarette. Meanwhile I'm going to sit down and relax and watch TV. Wonder why I'm so sleeeeepyyyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!" *clunk!*

This had me laughing and laughing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, if you are sitting in a room with 6 middle aged white guys, one black guy, one other woman and you get asked to answer the question " is there diversity at XXX?", it is a perfectly reasonable response to burst out laughing, right?

In class tonight, I got to tell my story about the board of directors where they went for diversity by looking for middle-aged white guys who DIDN'T work in finance.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Allyson, J got accepted to USC med school.

So they're staying?!?!

Or are they waiting for more acceptance letters to make a decision?

I vote USC. Of course.

In California, at the very least.

I vote USF though, and I think they still do to.
