Man, now I want an Egg McMuffin and a hash brown. Without shells.
Spike: Or maybe Captain Forehead was feeling a little less special. Didn't like me crashing his exclusive club, another vampire with a soul in the world. Angel: You're not in the world, Casper.

Because books.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
AAIGGHH!
Okay, quick: what's about an inch and a half long, brown, has long thin hairlike legs and antennae out both ends, and is currently crawling up my wall? Is this dangerous? Do I need to kill it?
I can't reach it to crush it, and I don't wanna get near it anyway. eww

So far my last hours of summer are dark, cold and rainy.
Although we did have a t-storm before dawn -- that's summery.
I missed the first of the Lynley mysteries and just saw the second. (I was so sure that Helen had died. Maybe that's just in the books?)

That was the last book, sumi. With No One as Witness.
I couldn't get into the PBS version of the books. No one looked anything like they looked in my head, especially Lynley. Actually, that's not true -- I like the actress who plays Havers, as Havers, but she's still not the way I imagined the character.

Ann, that's a ferret.
my McD's coffee was super strong and not a little bitter
Probably brewed and poured at the same moment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
No one looked anything like they looked in my head
I'm reading American Psycho right now, and am really glad there doesn't seem to be anything in the book to prevent me from continuing to picture Christian Bale.

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

A Neocon?

It's hiding in a stack of James Bond paperbacks.
It might be a neocon.

I like the Havers actress too and she isn't anything like the Havers in my head from the books. And neither is Lynley but it doesn't bother me.

Typo Boy:
I think you make some good points and perhaps I'm a bit too harsh on Chavez considering his laudable goals. He has done some very good things in terms of economic justice, but he also has been consolidating power to himself.
I read up a little more on him and found a good article from the BBC that sort of reflects my ambivalence.
As far as U.S. foreign policy goes, yeah not so great. We do tend to screw over people for our own economic and geopolitical gain. Like Fred Pete said, there have been some good moments, but I sure can think of a lot of bad ones especially now. Now I don't think the U.S. is authoritarian despite the current administrations attempt to consolidate executive power. But I do think we are on a bad path with wealth consolidating at the top, poverty expanding, millions without direct access to health care, and the aforementioned consolidation of executive power. I hope that the dems can steer the elections toward those kind of issues, but I suspect it will be about god, guns, and terror at least in my part of the world.
