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.
Quote correction, it was "a retarded haircut".
It's all pretty disturbing. CBC are reporting that there's one suspect whose dead, and they won't confirm any other suspects. But there are no confirmed dead among the victims, but one person was shot in the head.
From AP at Yahoo News:
Police spokesman Ean Lafreniere said there was just one gunman at the school and the search for any others was over.
Whitney Houston files for divorce. And I had such high hopes for those kids. [link]
SUCH a hard snort courtesy of Ms. Holt there.

Happy Birthday billytea!
I'm wearing a sweatshirt because I'm cold. In September. Something's not right here.
Did anyone see Men in Trees ? I watched it, okay part of it, because nothing else was on and it's supposedly set in Alaska. The scenery appears to be Southeast, but then the Alaskan dude tells the main character that she "forgot her mukluks" when she steps into the mud. I know that true realism is too much to ask for, but:
a) Mukluks weren't used in Southeast Alaska b) Mukluks wouldn't be used in rainy, muddy conditions. They're fur boots. Who wants to go around in fur boots in the mud?!
Ackpht!
From a Salon article, talking about the Dixie Chicks:
They're true, old-fashioned liberals in the sense that they refuse to yield to hopelessness or lazy cynicism.
What is "lazy cynicism"? I happen to think my cynicism is vigorous and active....
Perhaps they mean something more like fatalism?
Yeah. "Fuck it. Nothing we do matters.'
If nothing we do matters, then what matters is we do nothing.
Wait a sec....
