It's probably too late, and my vague memory is that it might not be public transportation friendly, but there's always the Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens. It's great. There are gorgeous gardens (yeah, the Mediterranean and English style gardens may be more appealing to an Alaskan than to someone for whom a primrose is not only a house plant). More importantly, it has a
gorgeous
library.
No, I'm not at all biased by the pretty books. And the fact that I'm at the Internet Librarian conference (with free wireless in my hotel - I could seriously get used to this) is just a coincidence. Really.
The product of an hour's worth of nervous tension is now up.
It's a great interview Jackal. One of the best pieces I've read in ages.
That might be the best thing I've ever heard. Just because I imagine a conversation that goes, "How do you stay so fit?" "I chainsmoke! Next question?" And then Tim morphs into Hunter S. Thompson, which is disturbing on a number of levels. I think I need to sleep more.
If, after he morphed, he eats the head of the Health & Fitness reporter, then says, "And I eat right," I think you've got yourself a pilot, Strega.
I'd say the worst experience: when I was threatened with castration at Worldcon by someone in a large audience during a Q&A -- he was angry because of the bad messages my work is sending to America.
Ha!
It's even funnier because I imagine it being Greenwalt, all, "Bad for me; bad for America!"
That was a lovely interview.
So glad I wasnt at the castration threat event. I think I would have become violent.
Yeah... Drive encourages bad driving. Also, I've totally become a serial killer since I started watching Dexter.
Speaking of which, my girlfriend fancies Dexter. Should I be worried?

Should I be worried nobody answered?
Questions, questions.
Speaking of which, my girlfriend fancies Dexter. Should I be worried?
It depends. I fancy Dexter a bit, but part of that is Michael C. Hall looking very fit and pulling off a fantastically nuanced performance; it's not like I'm planning to write love letters to convicted serial killers or lurk around prisons. I don't find sociopathy a turn-on.
