Sarameg, are you reading Jerry Springer Show transcripts again?
Am not!
Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Hmm. Maybe it needed to be less specific, I'm thinking. Fuck.
That too.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Migraineurs, you too, really.So trying to. It explains why I thought I was getting fewer migraines. Because they were the funky fun new sinus headaches I was getting "instead." Sucktastic.
Lee, that dentist should be smote.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Wired admits that another Wired reporter made shit up: [link]
Wired News has removed three articles from its website after an internal investigation failed to confirm the authenticity of a source used in the stories.
"Tribal Curse Haunts Launch Pad" (June 27, 2006), "NASA Boosts Heart-Monitoring Tech" (July 7, 2006) and "Don't Flush It -- Breathe It" (July 14, 2006), all by Philip Chien, relied in part on quotes and citations from Robert Ash, described in the first two stories as a "space historian" and in the last as an "aeronautical engineer and amateur space historian."
In a phone conversation with Wired News editors, Chien had identified Ash as a professor of aeronautical engineering at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia. Reached by phone this week, Ash said he is not a space historian and has never participated in interviews with Chien.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Damn. I liked the Tribal Curse one.

I am definitely going to go drinking and get the scuttlebutt from my friend who is a Wired editor...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Bless. I am home and have already sent out over a handful of emails and had two phone meetings. I get to lie down a bit...well, after finding food...until three, I think.

What is even happening?
Not being a Francophone, when I see anything resembling 'bestiaux' in a URL in Natter, I have to look at the poster's user name, and make a snap decision. I'm relieved my trust in sarameg was not misplaced. "Odd" is still just odd.
