Cool. And maybe the wife can send cakes with files in them. (I do have, in my favor, that despite having demonstrated several times, I've stopped short of civil disobedience. Which either makes me a pragmatist or a chickenshit, but I've never been arrested.)
Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My sister figures she's on the slow boat to Gitmo, erika, so you'll kinda know someone there.

Much later, but back at you, Deb.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Liese! WHEET! Lovelovelove. And boy, does it rings bells. You would get on well with my world-class bassplayer.
Lilty, got it, and many many thanks.
I figured out who the singer in the story is, who the best friend was, and why the singer's silence is ironic. Hoping to finish the story by the weekend; I need to get moving on "Cruel Sister" and also some on "Burden of Memory". It's possible I am slightly overextended, what with the going to Seattle to kick off book tour next weekend.

Honey, if you're heading for Gitmo, I'm going to be in whatever charming little oubliette the Bushies use for prisoners they want less visible. Send lawyers, guns and money! (warren zevon love)

This is true... maybe I could hide a file in my chair somewhere, convince 'em it was Wheelchair Parts...ABs never understand about that stuff and those guys won't, for sure.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Send lawyers, guns and money! (warren zevon love)
....and I suddenly got the Farscape reference!
(There's a 3-parter of episodes titled "Liars, Guns, and Money." I never realized it was a bit of a shoutout.)

Of course, it's also basically the Bush family anthem:
Well, I went home with the waitress
The way I always do
How was I to know
She was with the Russians, too
I was gambling in Havana
I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
Dad, get me out of this!
I'm the innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck
Between the rock and the hard place
And I'm down on my luck
And I'm down on my luck
And I'm down on my luck
Now I'm hiding in Honduras
I'm a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money
The shit has hit the fan
Send lawyers, guns and money...
BTW, in conversation with Roz Kaveney on the phone yesterday, she informs me that there is an episode of Farscape (never seen the show) that I am now commanded to see, if possible. Something about a character hallucinating that all the other characters are Looney Toon characters?
