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

There was a truck fire on my way home last night. Could see the smoke from miles off, and since the emergency vehicles' lights were in the opposing lane, I figured our slowdown wouldn't he horrible.

Then the firetrucks exit the westbound freeway and come onto our side instead. It was kinda cool, watching the black smoke turn into white. Sadly, though, by the time I got there, the fire was out. Didn't jack up traffic near as much as I'd have expected.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I bought pineapple chunks at lunch. I was going to save half of them for tomorrow, but they're so tasty, I think I'll just have to finish them. It's like sunshine in my mouth.

Watched Bones this morning. It was fun. but what is with the musical montage while looking at various body leavings. that seemed silly.

So you're really Laurie Anderson?

Yet another reason why you're not a million selling rap star.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'll settle for being Laurie Anderson.

Really, I feel like Joey Tribbiani. "It's like summer in a bowl!"

Summer in a bowl doesn't come cheap, though.

It'd be worth a couple of bucks to me to even *try* to get a clinic open on the reservation--even if it doesn't happen.

I spoke with my BFF of 15 years, who is the Exec Director of an organization that works with native americans. She says that Cecilia Fire Thunder is legit. She does caution to make sure that your donation goes to the proper place, as the general fund is "a black hole" :)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Heh, tommyrot posted something about that study yesterday (or possibly the day before, stuff all runs together in my brain after a while), Tom. It was a different article on the same study, though.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

Atheists are "America's most distrusted minority".

I wouldn't trust us, either. We don't even support torture!

Oh well, back to my rampant materialism and cultural elitism. My gold-plated latte spoon makes me better than all of you! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

HA.
