I did like how you got him in the shower

That was GENIUS!

Are there big stretches ahead of me? Crap! So far, it's just random psalm quotations on every other page.

Actually, I was responding to your description. I missed an "apparently" in there. You've read more of the book than I have.

I quite enjoyed Name of the Rose. It's a fine detective story that, as an added bonus, also teaches about philosophy and the medieval Church. But first and foremost a detective story.

Worked for me. Though I haven't tried any of Eco's other work.

lisah! When I got home from vacation, I found dvds from you in my mail pile and I forgot to e you. I'm an ass. But thank you! I'm trying to only watch one dvd a week so that the show will last longer.

Cindy, quite the stressful night for your whole family but I'm so very glad Christopher's okay. {{{Cindy & Family}}} Wow.

Cindy, a punch in the nose would be over too quickly. I'd stick with your plan of making him the butt of a family joke for the rest of your life. I'm very glad that whatever it was, it doesn't seem to be causing him pain/harm.

I re-read Name of the Rose regularly. It's the library thing that makes it so cool (to me).

Poor, Cindy. His little "small and white" sentence is still going to be running around in your head like a nightmare refrain from Buffy.

Hell, David, you've known me since *SFNet* days.

Phew, that's a couple lifetimes ago, huh?

Now that y'all mention it, when I do spot a cool looking Indian girl on the Muni I do think of her in terms of P-Cow worthiness. It's not enough that she's pretty and the right age - she's got to have cool style and interesting reading material or I can hear her iPod or she's got geeky hip pins on her backpack.

You're so welcome! I'm glad they got to you safely. I miss not having any new episodes to watch...

You gotta write it on his birthday cake when he turns 18! "It was white and square and looked like a tooth so I swallowed it." Maybe covered with little white toothlike candy squares.

Then maybe, "Fuck you very much! You little heart attack giver!"

But only when he's 18.

I like that Brother William very explicity details his thought process because hell if I could make some of those leaps myself. But it's very Sherlock Holmes.

Yeah, the freaky library system is definitely interesting.

Aw, hee.

Who wouldn't love this face? And that schnozz? And those ears?

Looks like someone shelled an Armadillo.
