Our wings are not tired.

Alias just made me happy.

Very cool picture of Saturn and Enceladus: [link]

Less cool, but just as amazing: [link]

I don't think I'd agree that a closeup (relatively speaking) of a giant, swirling ball of nuclear fire is less cool than a very pretty but staid (one might say saturnine) picture of a big (but smaller) ball of mostly hydrogen and its pet rock, but they are both pretty cool, and it's clearly a subjective thing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nerdily, everyone recognised "assimilated by the borg" but thought the playa/game was a fresh new saying.

That is unbelievably nerdy.

In other news, I told a stranger I liked her shoes while getting off the train. So unlike me!

I also got to overhear a fairly exotic-looking Goth woman (I mean, her hair is bright green at the top and then she has waist-long dreads) who I see on a pretty regular basis have a perfectly normal and ridiculous conversation on the phone. It was stupidly incongrous (the stupid part was me. What did I think, she only spoke in binary?).

Oh, I will keep posting until someone else shows up...

OK, Omar Epps's name on House is Eric Foreman? Isn't that Topher Grace on That 70s Show??

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

It was all in Super-Secret goth code. Does that make you feel any better?

Because books.

Top Chef just completely astounded me. Hate to say it, but I was really rooting for LeAnne over Tiffani. And I am absurdly proud of Dave, maybe because he seems to view food in a more accessible way (as in, for someone like me, with a Cap'n Crunch/Wonderbread/canned green bean raised palate). Next week looks...interesting.

Yeah! That's weird.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Top Chef:

I so wanted Lee Anne to stay!!! I like her much better than Tiffani who I feel like would stab people in the back if no one would catch her. So proud of Dave, but Lee Anne's a better chef. Also, he needed to SHUT UP instead of rambling to the chefs about his dishes.

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

You know, I noticed that back in S1 and then completely forgot about it until now. Probably because nobody uses first names on that show.

ARGH!!!! SO tempting to read the Top Chef white font, but I still have most of TAR and all of Lost to get through before I even dare look.

And why on Earth am I spoilerphobic about Top Chef? Dunno, but I am.
