I'm still wondering what happened to the side mirror on my old car. I was parked at a friend's house nearby, for only an hour or two, but when I came out, the whole assembly --housing and mirror-- had either been wrenched or knocked off. Since we couldn't find it anywhere on the street, sidewalk or underneath nearby cars, my best guess is that it was straightforward theivery. Still, it was broken off to judge from the plastic left behind....
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
From Feministing:
Our crush of the week is Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, after seeing a recent speech he made at an event for Equality Now. Check it out. So hot.
The speech itself was top-notch. What I think should be the take-home part is,
- "Why do you write these strong female characters?"
-"This is ridiculous... why don't you ask a hundred other guys why they don't?"
or the final answer, "Because you're still asking me this question."
I haven't actually watched the interview yet....

Woe to the fucking wicked.
It's not an interview. It's a speech. His central theme is that people keep asking him why he writes strong female characters (dozens of times a day during press tours), and his speech is primarily made up of answers to that question.

What is even happening?
It's 8 minutes and five seconds including the titles. You can forward through Streep's intro and save yourself a few seconds, if you want.
It's prime Joss, who I don't really want to love on account of his abandoning me, but he made me love him. He always does.

Yes. Love.And he likes the fans, unlike Fontana, say, who made a big point of saying that it was his show and he'd do whatever he wanted to it. Poor H:LOTS.

I always wondered how Disney ended up with Pooh. Sounds like a sad story.
