Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Der. I see that now. Thanks. So it won't tell me if I have to click or not? Good thing I only care about two topics.

ita, the colors change when you have new messages. I think there may be a text indication as well.

I'll look out for that. Though I'm really sure there's no text indication, but I might have missed colour.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Note the one thread that has a different color? That's the one that only has read messages. The other orange colors, those have unread messages.

Note: please do not make fun of my thread subscriptions

I would not mock someone being as helpful as you are. Okay. I should see that different coloured envelope soon.

Is this explained somewhere? I swear I looked in their FAQ.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have no idea actually. Last time I looked at the FAQ, I think it was 6 years ago or something.

Hah! The Kindle 2 arrived last night. It is certainly much thinner, although I think the screen is the same size, which was my main issue with the whole concept.

Our wings are not tired

I find it pretty nice to hold. I got pair of them for Kristin and me.
