Holy shit -- that fire in Williamsburg is at eight alarms (Gothamist says 10, but I can't find any independent confirmation of that), and growing.
Its visible from my office on the East side.
Seeing a big plume of smoke "down there" is disquieting.
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Timelies,
Hope everything works out with Mr. Kitty, sarameg.
Did you know there is a scientific research project called the SAURON Project?
Does it involve giant eyes and/or rings?
ION, I can't believe it's only Tuesday. Today and yesterday just seemed to drag. No idea why it's going so slow. I've got Anime Central coming up this weekend, but I can't get myself excited about it this year for some reason. I'd be tempted to not go if hotel and admission money hadn't already been spent and girlfriend wasn't working it. She'd be pretty miffed if I didn't show.

Oh giggle away, I chose that phrasing for a reason. I've been told by a fairly reliable, if slightly whacko source that cats do get the munchies if exposed to pot. However, that's not a solution I'm really going to approach.
OK, now I just remembered MK get munchies when exposed to catnip. WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT EARLIER.
I've also been told to sprinkle parmesean on his food. Which made me snort, but then I remembered that's how I made college caf food palatable.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Elliptical and lenticular galaxies, which is a particularly coincidental shape . Funnier yet is it is an acronym. Wonder how many hours were spent trying to find words that fit...

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
It actually smells like fire in my office. I'm not even that close to Greenpoint.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wonder if you can injure people with those teddy bears. I'd guess so...

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

Newer digital cordless phones have better security, but cheaper or older phones have few if any security features. Anyone using a radio scanner can eavesdrop on older analog cordless phone calls, even if the phone has multiple channels.
There is talk of adding a new paraphillia to the next DSM that is a kind of audio version of voyeurism, where men drive around with radio scanners listening for sexual activity on wireless intercoms, and phone sex or women talking about their sex lives to friends on cordless/cell phones.
