Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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

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

Thank you! The title is so not linked to the subject matter, in my head.

Oh, Anderson Cooper. Female friends and I swooned over him during many a lunch hour in highschool during his Channel One days. He hasn't gotten less hawt, imho.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Anderson Cooper was one of the judges on Iron Chef America last Sunday. Watching him go all fanboy over Morimoto's presentation was fun.

I thought AC's line during his Colbert Report interview was great--something like "I'm going to stay in this news business until I turn grey."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Pinging me repeatedly to ask how soon I can have the third and fourth set of items on my prioritized To Do list will not get them done any sooner. It just interferes with how focused I am while working on the higher priority items, and therefore ensures I'll be working on those longer to correct any mistakes.

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

I just remembered the thing that I need to buy but always forget when I am at the grocery store, and actually wrote it down on my shopping list.

Take THAT, middle aged brain!
