Timelies all!
Another quiet day here...
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I've given up on the idea of the Cowparade touring today -- too wet! I'll be having to hold an umbrella over my head to take pictures.
Instead I'm going to stay in and get a bunch of household tasks done, and try to learn how to vid with Final Cut Pro, which is indeed a fancy-schmancy program. Mind you, I'm still stuck on how you do simple things like delete an audio track from a video clip, or indeed how you manipulate things in general. ::puts on hat of inspiration::

Jesse: no clue. Maybe 'Angular' is an idiom for upright or freestanding or something? So far as I can find, it pretty much means angular in Spanish.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Jesse, I think a piedra angular is a cornerstone.

OK, that makes good sense!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, I think a piedra angular is a cornerstone.
Huh. That still doesn't have any Christian resonance for me.

Jesse, fwiw, I got 183,000 hits when I googled "cornerstone church" -- at a guess it shows up far more often in Charismatic parlance.

Interesante. The church by me is definitely charismatic, so I guess I'm just ignorant! Learn something every day.

Googling just "cornerstone" gives a Christian college, homeschooling materials, a group of affiliated Christian schools (w/ each other, the college, the homeschools, or all three I don't know), a contemporary Christian music festival, and a Christian cable TV channel all on the front page of results -- looks like it's something of a brand name (officially or not) in the Evangelical world.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I don't know how people deal with this when the other person is dangerous.
The couple of stalkers I've had have been of the undangerous variety, and not terribly persistent once I made clear in ruthlessly blunt terms that I wanted nothing more to do with them. But I am aware that my place of business is deep, deep in the woods, on land owned by my relatives, where no one will ever be digging without their permission...
