I dare not get too excited about Eureka, because I still smart from the Coupling fiasco.
But that's damned cool.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think I have a problem with my brain being missing....
I managed to lose an iPod. My 60 gig video one.
Well, it's probably in my appartment somewhere. (I was hoping it was still at work, or in my car, but no dice.)
In violent-neighborhood news, there's a place I lived at in Minneapolis for 2 1/2 years - we had three murders within a block during that time. All were people killing people they knew, but one was a driveby shooting kitty-corner from our house....

If your brain is missing, then how are you thinking? IJS.

Why does string cheese taste so much better when you peel off strings to eat, as opposed to just biting off a chunk?

Bush's grope: "Blitz-Massage" or Vulcan nerve pinch? (With photos of Bush and the Chancelor, and of Spock giving a Vulcan nerve pinch.)
Germans may be obsessed with shaking hands, but it is a very brief shake. Even family members will shake hands with each other. Touching of this sort is for -very- close friends in private. At least this produced yet another cool German word: "Blitz-Massage."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Project Runway: SHOCKER!! I really thought Malan would be on for a good long time. I mean, that dress did suck, but at least he had a Point Of View, like they're always yammering on about. Also, I thought this was the week with someone getting kicked off. Lame.

In dangerous neighbourhood talk, I lived right between the Argentinian embassy during the Falkland War and the site of the Hyde Park bombing. I, uh, also lived in Detroit. And Jamaica.
LA's nice and safe.
tommy, maybe someday all electronic devices worth more than $50 will come with remote locator beacons. That sucks.

Yeah, I was thinking that when I was in bed last night, trying to sleep remember where I might have left it....
Oh well - I still have my Nano (but I sold my 40 gig one).

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I live in Durham. Folks in Raleigh and Chapel Hill sometimes get all "Ooooh, Durham's so dangerous" about it, but my neighborhood, at least, feels as safe as anywhere else I've lived in the Triangle.
