Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

[HA to the NYC food-snob x-post!]

novelty dining scares me.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Ninja's claim to fame is the withering review it got in the NYT. [link]

In this case they come armed not only with swords and sorcery but also with recipes, which may be their most dangerous weapons of all.

My question about whether there's really a ninja rule against recipes: as yet, unanswered.

Ninjas are shifty that way.

Hey look, another opportunity to pimp http://askaninja.com/!

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

ita, are citrus scents migraine triggers for you?

Askaninja.com is confusing, much like the ninja.

ION: a personal appeal to the switchboard: please stop transferring Siubhan's calls to me. We are not the same person. I am just going to hang up on them, because my phone does that instead of transferring calls. Thank you.

Yeah, that's why I only get the podcasts. All of the content, none of the irritating site design.

This is very cool:

In very basic terms a permanent neodymium-iron-born magnet is forced back and through an electric coil by the modulation of waves. The researchers suggest such buoys could power about 20% of Oregon’s electricity needs.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

SA, I'll be slightly closer to you than usual this weekend. (Asheville) ::stretches arms::

::adoration:: Not close enough!

If you or smonster come through Nashville or Knoxville or pretty much anything near/around this state, lemme know. What are you doing in Asheville?

Wow, how wonderful! For how long?

I love this question, because it shows a unique assumption everyone makes: that I'm not moving there permanently. *g* Which I'm not, but the assumption still amuses me. I've got a four-month visa, and a six-month follow-up visa for Britain after that. So I will definitely be gone for at least ten months, and I'm kind of thinking about traveling to France and Spain and Portugal, maybe Greece and Morocco (and Italy again; that is a given with me) in the two months following, to make it a full year. But things can change. I'm trying to be really open to opportunities.

It's lovely to read this. I hope the turns and bends in the road will have many great surprises for you!

Gosh, me too. Thank you.

Jessica and Tom, I am a) amused that you already know about it; and b) have already an opinion about it. I still think it's cool, though. I'd go just for the nooks and crannies. But not for the price.
