You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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

Did VM start up again, or still in repeats?

Wait..CW hasn't launched yet, has it?

I found sources for "shidech."

Your boss wants to be a matchmaker?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

ita, you on that page would help. someday....someday.

I appreciate the effort though, I know how you really don't like it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

The Lindbergh baby -- the subject of the first research paper I had to do in high school English. Anthony Scaduto's Scapegoat had just come out and was my principal source. Which meant my paper turned into a very impassioned plea that the wrong man was convicted.

I found a copy of Scapegoat in a used bookstore some years later. Still an interesting book.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Repeats and no, it hasn't. I think it goes live on the 18th, maybe? I caught up with S1 via Netflix and S2 repeats simulaneously. I've been enjoying it a lot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Your boss wants to be a matchmaker?

She wants to tell the person she's writing to that she made a good match. Between what, I'm not exactly sure, but maybe between her (boss) and the new job?

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

I'm awake, and my entire face hurts.

Canker sores?! I'm telling you, cross-country pandemic!

Here's the thing with the Short murder and the Zodiac killings, which I think someone else alluded to in a way: one is an unsolved murder; the other is a notorious murderer. I doubt many people can remember the details of a particular killing by the Zodiac killer, even if they have a passing familiarity with the case. May be a specious distinction but hey, that's my job.

the Cot Machine

Weirdest name for a shoe.

msbelle, this routinely makes me chuckle: [link]

That and remembering the nephew kvetching about the dark, culminating in a dramatic "I HAVE NO EYES!" but maybe that's amusing to only me.

And my hobby.

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

My brain is broken. Whenever I read "Zodiac killer" I think of Spinal Tap.
