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.
Oh, also, I was just thinking about how much I want to read Allyson's awesome book. Not the fandom one, the next one. Because it kicks so much ass.
I already finished the first essay, "The Pantyhose Man."
Um. I AM A PROFESSIONAL WRITER!
I never get tired of typing that.
As New York melts into a jaded little puddle, Starbucks is taking pity on everyone and offering free iced coffee at all locations from 1-3 PM today.
Oh! I just passed by an utterly packed Starbucks, and wondered what the hell. Needless to say, not the best way I'd choose to beat the heat.
Yeah, eff that -- I'm not waiting outside for a free iced coffee.
Back to what we were talking about yesterday: Castro's Sister Attests "He's Very Sick, But He's Not Dead"...
Here's the CNN story: [link] My God, she actually looks like him.
She hasn't spoken to Castro since 1963, the year before she emigrated to Miami. But Juanita Castro said her information about her brother is accurate.
"I have my way to know everything -- not everything, but some very important things," she said.
"I have my way to know everything -- not everything, but some very important things," she said.
"I call it a 'telephone,'" she continued.
I really don't think the literalist who are loudest in our current culture are the majority of christians now or ever.
In last year's Pew survey, 36% of Americans said that the Bible was the word of God and should be taken literally. 40% said the Bible was the word of God, but not everything in it should be taken literally.
So it's a pretty near thing.
Castro's sister emigrated to Miami? I don't know why I find that so shocking, but I do.

He's the anti-Generalisimo Francisco Franco.
It's totally rude!
Totally agree. I'm trying to think of an appropriately snappy comeback.
My God, she actually looks like him.
Maybe The Daily Show will put the beard on her tonight.

Even on less than 3 hours sleep, I'm not that desperate to stand in line for free iced coffee.
Gloomcookie, check with your vet
I did that last time I went out of town. They sent over a supremely incompetent person, damn them.
fake boobs
I had someone ask my GF that about me when we first started dating. At first I was totally offended, until GF said she asked because I was so thin, how could I possibly have such generously sized breasts? BTW, lest someone wonder why they would have such a conversation, this is GF's best friend since high school. No topic is off-limits there.
