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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, that part could be true... or at least I'm not expert enough in the care and storage of Civil War cannonballs to know that doesn't make sense....
I mean, I'm sure it's all damp in the fallout shelter if it's 4 flights of stars below ground level....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A Chicagoista totally needs to go over and check that guy out.

Yeah, I could carry one cannonball a few feet and then be all, "Sorry - hurt my back. Gotta go. Wait, let me grab a few beers first."

Dude, you should totally stumble into the pile of slick balls.
I really hope they're friends of hers, not just random people trying to affect her narrative.
Two best-selling authors have asked the best-selling author of all not to kill off the central character of her stories. John Irving (The World According to Garp) and Stephen King (Carrie) told a news conference in New York Tuesday that they had written to J.K. Rowling asking her not to kill Harry Potter in the final book of her series about the boy wizard. (Each of her Harry Potter tales has been or will be made into a motion picture. She has indicated that several key characters will die in her final Potter book, which she is currently writing.) Referring to a scene in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Final Problem, in which Doyle killed off his famous detective, Sherlock Holmes, King told reporters, "I don't want [Harry] to go over the Reichenbach Falls." Irving commented, "My fingers are crossed for Harry." (If history is any indication, there may still be hope for Harry even if Rowling does kill him off. The public was so outraged after Doyle sent Holmes to his death that it mounted a letter-writing campaign that resulted in the author's resurrection of Holmes.)

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
King, Irving, and Rowling all did some sort of charity event together a couple days ago, so that's not quite as random as it sounds.

Art Crawl!!!
The university is going through brownouts and the A/C has gone down and the heat index is 105.
(It's afternoon -- isn't the weather supposed to be breaking now?)

It has been reprinted. Which you might know, but just in case you didn't. I read it in university, loved it to pieces, but couldn't find a copy for my own until fairly recently.
Yeah, it's been sitting in my Amazon cart for a while, waiting for me to have a moment of weakness. But thanks!

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
But we're still scheduled for 79 (glorious 79) and storms tomorrow.
Ack. No storms! No storms! We're taking my dad to Wrigley for his birthday tomorrow. (79 is good, though.)
