Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

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

The Little Match Girl was your favorite story? Was Shoah your favorite movie?

Heh. Nope, I never saw that.

When I was about five, sad songs about death were my favorites. I mean, they made me really sad to listen to, but they were still my faves. Like "My Grandfather's Clock." My favorite line was ,"And it stopped short, never to go again, when the old man died." I had a windup toy clock that played that song - loved that thing.

Oh, and "Hang Down Your Head, Tom Dooley."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, in other news, the office manager came in a little bit ago, looked at my three file cabinets, and said, "Looks like you could use some help here." Um, YEAH. Moving files is not my job here. @@

Now tagless for your comfort.

How? That story is awesome.

O. Henry with cannibalism! Awesome, indeed.

The Little Match-Seller: [link]

It's actually New Year's Eve, but a Christmas tree does turn up. I always liked The Steadfast Tin Soldier. Which isn't Christmassy, but is equally depressing.

Oh, me, too! I didn't realize how much I liked URST even as a wee girl.

I kinda' remember that one. Yeah, I liked that one a lot too. I'll have to read it [link] when I get a chance.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Nutty, you have depressed me.

What, you don't like duck??

I have no idea who wrote that story, but it's nowhere represented on the intarnets, to my dismay. I thought everything was on the intarnets by now!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

O. Henry with cannibalism! Awesome, indeed.

And a dash of Kafka.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

sad songs about death were my favorites.

Then Julie yelled, he's got a gun, and she stepped in front of me
Suddenly, a shot rang out, and I saw Julie falling
I ran to her, I held her close, when I looked down, my hands were red,
and heres the last words Julie said...

Daddy please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means so much to me
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married.....aaahhh..ahhhh
ahhhh....ahhhhh
