Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Natter .44 Magnum: Do You Feel Chatty, Punk?  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Football is rather the major religion apparently, so this seems to be an odd offering to the gods, I think.

My brother, at a tailgate party at some major game (he was there for the beer and getting paid to watch the setup so no one would run off with the hugeass flatscreen) asked who this Bear Bryant* person was they kept talking about. Dead silence. They were shocked, just shocked and what rock did he crawl out from under! My brother doesn't follow football. Hell, no one in my family does.

* I didn't know until he relayed this story either. One of the football gods.

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

In an extraordinary move, NBC has completely revamped the fall schedule it announced only last week after seeing what its broadcast rivals had done.

NBC moved "Law & Order" to Friday nights, took "Medium" off the schedule until midseason and shifted its highly touted Aaron Sorkin show on the backstage world of a TV comedy from Thursday to Monday.

Poor NBC. That amuses me. As does this, from that ban figure skating site.

In the former Soviet Union's former Russia -- which is now the present Russia, propaganda and mind control were as common as snow in Siberia -- which is still called Siberia.

The evil is this way?

Topic!Cindy -- I sent a text message on my telephone for the first time today. I knew you'd be proud (once you stopped laughing). Still not getting that Live Journal thingy though.

This meeting keeps using "flowing" in ways God never intended. But it's the "how does that foot back to the original document?" that keeps weirding me out. Is that a new meaning of the word "foot" or an old one I'd never noticed?

What is even happening?

Narrator, I have never sent a text message on my cell phone (it might not even have the capability). I am *SO* proud of you.

(LiveJournal's much easier. Even Strega has a LiveJournal, for cry yi yi.)

(No Strega, I have not idea why I said that. Blame Narrator.)

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

But it's the "how does that foot back to the original document?" that keeps weirding me out. Is that a new meaning of the word "foot" or an old one I'd never noticed?

My guess is it's refering to the foot of a snail. So it's really about the trail of slime back to the original document....

LiveJournal's much easier.

Yes, George Bush is simply delighted that we are giving him information about ourselves free of charge. Not that he feels he has any limitations anyway, but still ...

Blame Narrator

Well, at least you're consistent.

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

I have a LiveJournal account, but I don't actually have an LJ. Nor do I anticipate having one anytime in the near or even far future -- I spend too much time online as it is, so I just use the LJ account to check up on the Buffistas who are more talky over there than here.

We have a lot of crushed snail carcasses here on the campus. That doesn't bode well.
