It's snowing here. Somebody hold me.

I liked the Gilmore Girls more than I've liked an episode in a long time. Minimal Zach and Kirk, and still a funny wedding. For a moment last night, I thought that Lorelai and Christopher were going to end up being the end of season wedding. Lorelai's dress was gorgeous.

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Bush the Lesser

That's good, I also submit "George the Unready."

I came for some advice from whoever might know. My brother has plantar fascitis in his foot and wants his doctor to write him an exemption from working overtime on concrete floors. Will that work? Are there any laws that help? His company makes everyone work 20 hours of overtime a week, so they won't want to let him off and make an example. How might they fight it?

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

It's snowing here.

That's just gross, and wrong.

I know!! It's more like slush falling from the sky than actual snow, but equally depressing.

Our wings are not tired.

Ouch Noumenon. Don't know if it will work, but he should give it a try. The concrete must be killing his poor feet. Then again, I have known people that pounded (literally) their feet to relieve the plantar fascitis pain with success.

Snow! Yuck.

Sick belly, yuck.

Um, congrats to Tom & Katie. Suri Cruise? Not the worst name I have heard, not the best either.

"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."

Looks like a good deal. Not quite right for Buffistaville though. Buffista Island a better plan.

Yikes I looked at the pictures of the Tram stranded people [link] and really there is not a chance that would ever happen to me because there is no way I would ever get on a Tram like that. I'd swim the East River first.

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

Perkins, I hope your stomach shapes up and quickly.

I'm slightly dizzy this morning, but not enough, I think, to stop me from driving in an hour or so.

Sue, I thought the wedding was very sweet, although I wish they'd explained what the argument with the grandmother was --it was obviously predictable to the characters, but I felt like I missed something. There was also minimal use of the townspeople considering, but I really missed the hot boys and hated the oh-so-predictable outburst of Lorelai's poorly managed resentment. And what set her off seemed so minor, all told.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Of course, a civil war or two in the next couple of years might change the calculus somewhat.

I'd argue that there's been a cold civil war going on for a good 15 years or more. At minimum, since Buchanan's speech at the 1992 Republican convention.
