See, I don't think it's children we need to worry about being corrupted by the HP books...

No shit.

It's the over analytical 32 year olds.

OK, I told my friend I was 99% sure, but give me the overnight. She said that was fine, considering she really ought to check with her husband first since she'd be leaving him alone with the two kids!

Cracks me up.

What? I'd been trying to cast hexes on people that annoy me long before I read the HP books.

Can't you submit a new document with the changes made (or not), as sarameg suggested?

Toggling between two documents would lead to extreme badness. I think I just have to suffer.

Allyson, if you want to make the changes you want to make and ignore the ones you don't, I'll be happy to clean it up after you - if you want.

So sweet!

I do really need to learn to be comfy with this, I think. You know, if this one successful enough to allow me to publish another. Oh please oh please oh please.

Also, I can't believe I forgot to tell ita this.

Yesterday on my commute home, I pulled up behind a pickup truck on Los Feliz Blvd, and there was some sort of truckcharm dangling from behind the bumper. I first thought it was a pair of boxing gloves, but as I pulled closer, it became clear that it was a pair of brass balls.

Just swaying and dangling, an enormous pair, complete with droopy sack. All the way from the 5 to Hillhurst.

Nast.

I've seen them for sale around here, but I've not seen them on any trucks. It's possible Utah police may not be very forgiving of big balls hanging free in traffic.

Seriously, Allyson, print it out.

Current-unfavorite coworker just spent two hours in with our boss, and came out (I hear) with tears in her eyes. Yikes. Not sure if she quit, was fired, or just had the Come-to-Jesus that she's been needing.

A Houston parent wants to ban the book Fahrenheit 451, even though he admits he never read it.

I was going to make a joke about how they probably thought it was related to Michael Moore, but then I checked the article.

Alton Verm, of Conroe, objects to the language and content in the book. His 15-year-old daughter Diana, a CCHS sophomore, came to him Sept. 21 with her reservations about reading the book because of its language.
"The book had a bunch of very bad language in it," Diana Verm said. "It shouldn't be in there because it's offending people. ... If they can't find a book that uses clean words, they shouldn't have a book at all."

The hell? I haven't read it over a decade or more, but I can't remember anything in the way of objectionable language in the book. Has Ray Bradbury ever used anything harsher than "hell" or "damn"?

Ah, see that's 'cause you're not in the South. I have seen more than my share driving down I-95 (or "the 95" for those of you from California)

one of my neighbors has a pair of blueballs hanging from his jeep. Makes me wonder what he is trying to say .
