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.
Funny mistake in headline at Whedonesque:
Chiwetel Ejiofor on Colin Ferguson According to this week's TV Guide Magazine, Chiwetel Ejiofor (the Operative of "Serenity") is scheduled to be on the Colin Ferguson talk show on CBS Mon. night/Tues. morning Dec. 4/5, 12:35 AM, discussing "Children of Men."
It's just, you know, with the slash and the MPREGy topic, and...okay.
Heh. Did you see my edit?
Heh. Not until you mentioned it....
on Spn? I've been wondering if I'm supposed to remember how that happened.
The actor. He fell off something on the set (I think doing something actually TV-show related, not just randomly flailing down a flight of stairs or something). There was mention of the fact they had him in a removable cast for some weeks, till they could write into the show why he might suddenly be in a hard cast.
Ultimately I think it was the zombie chick who tackled him and he walked away saying, "I think she broke my arm."
sarameg, that would be Motel of the Mysteries by David Macaulay, who is incidentally an author of the publisher that some Buffistas work for.
I've always thought it was odd that we start the New Year by being hungover, sleeping late, and taking the day off.
And despite the fact that I am Chandler-Bingesque smoker, it is very bizarre to think that we light something on fire and then STICK IT IN OUR MOUTHS and inhale the smoke. I mean, really, how the hell did this practice catch on?
Heh. Thanks, Nutty.

Heh. For some reason, this flashed me to the lyrics to Lumina: Babies will put things in their mouths / Never heard of sin
Theo, thanks!
What I don't understand about smoking is why the first person did it. We have an Indian with a tobacco plant. He tried eating the leaves, but it made him sick, tobacco being quite poisonous. He then said, "I can't eat this, so I think I'll dry it and inhale the smoke."
Also, who first separated eggs and whipped the egg whites? Why would you do that? Yes, it turns out you get fluffy goodness, but why would that occur to anyone?
I recall a story (in one of my middle school texts, I think) in which the fallen civilization was buried in junk mail and the toilet seat was interpreted as a headdress. You'd strap the seat cover to your forehead with a ribbon reading "Sanitized for your protection."
Was it this book?
I'd try separating eggs before I'd eat the first artichoke. And I love artichokes.
