Can we call her Ray (or Al)?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You can call her Al.

Oh lord. The overarching authority for my place of work just did something so boneheadedly STUPID, even I'm surprised. Yeah, it is SUCH a good idea to block all internet traffic coming from one of your largest facilities that works with ours. @@
I should have gone to bed much earlier than I did last night.
bon, I saw that tv thing. It was good. And spooky.

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

I knew there was something familiar about it.

Happy Birthday, Steph!
Oh, I love that part! Girl is very funny.
It was so great where she's describing Clay announcing to the crowd that she was there, and her husband immediately grabbing her arm and saying "We have to leave NOW!"
I was also thrilled to hear a couple weeks ago that Kathy and Matt reconciled.

Yousef Mohammad, a neurologist at OSU Medical Center who presented the results, says that the patients in this study reported a significant reduction in nausea, noise and light sensitivity post treatment.
"Perhaps the most significant effect of using the TMS device was on the two-hour symptom assessment, with 84 percent of the episodes in patients using the TMS occurring without noise sensitivity. Work functioning also improved, and there were no side effects reported," Mohammad said.
The stimulator sends a strong electric current through a metal coil, which creates an intense magnetic field for about one millisecond. This magnetic pulse, when held against a person's head, creates an electric current in the neurons of the brain, interrupting the aura before it results in a throbbing headache.
"The device's pulses are painless. The patients have felt a little pressure, but that's all," said Mohammad, who is principal investigator of the study at Ohio State .
"In our study sample, 69 percent of the TMS-related headaches reported to have either no or mild pain at the two-hour post-treatment point compared to 48 percent of the placebo group. In addition, 42 percent of the TMS-treated patients graded their headache response, without symptoms, as very good or excellent compared to 26 percent for the placebo group. These are very encouraging results."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
67 percent of the TMS-treated patients reported their fealty to Clovis the Bunny, versus 2 percent of the placebo group.
