Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I'm going to partway blame all the cold meds he's on, but here he is at a major cancer conference and he's mocking all the absent minded, socially bent scientists he's dealing with and I'm like DUDE! You've gotten lost THREE TIMES and had to get directions from people NOT IN THE CITY. And you had a MAP this time!

I love him, he makes me laugh (I spent most of the not-giving-directions part of the 90 minute call laughing,) but the boy needs a minder. Or a GPS implanted.

Sarameg I can totally sympathize with your brother. I have no sense of direction. I can get lost in a closet. If I sit too long in the living room I have to pause after standing up to get my bearings. Strange city, map or no map - gonna get lost.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Argh. Speaking of virii, Hec just came home, lugging a pink and droopy Emmett, who is feverish to the tune of 101.4, poor thing. He's lying in a sludgy heap on the couch, kind of watching Ed, Edd & Eddy but mostly in a haze. Must go make him jello in a fancy glass, per Hec's instructions (Hec gets to give me instructions because he's out doing the laundry).

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

but I can't remember the Plei-brother stories, except a vague memory that they always concern her finding his bank for him.
WaMus! I think of him everytime I see one of those banks. Which is frighteningly frequent now that I am in Portland.

I can't remember his name, but I can find his bank.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Emmett does a frighteningly accurate (and fucking HILARIOUS) Ed impression.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Poor Emmett!

So, I just told my father it's 10pm where he lives, not 9, to his surprise. But that's more a woke-up-in-Chicago issue than a DST issue.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

All right, fellow 24-viewers...someone explain what the hell that ending was supposed to be. What could Logan possibly have to gain here? He's ALREADY THE PRESIDENT.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

OK, so 24 - HOLY FUKCING $HIT!!!!!???!?!!!!!!!

I don't know if I can quite buy it, but I fucking love it!

You know Jess, I don't have an answer, I just love that they made their Nixon/Smirky the Chimp hybrid the big bad for the year. Given the alleged political leanings of some of the folks behind the show (and last years torture-rama), I have a horrible feeling it will all end up "justified" somehow, at which point I throw things at the television and skip next year (if there is one).

OK, 24 just made me go, "Bwuh?" Because, really, where else could they go with all the this is bigger than you think, yet, it was already as close as you could get to the President, but I still didn't expect that. Also, my question is the same as Jessica's, because, why all the hocus-pocus. You're the damn President .

But, you know, it ought to be... interesting.
