All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Ew.

No kidding. Where does that fall on the fetish map?

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

I'd wager it's somewhere in the animal/object transformation overlap.

Yeah, it's gotta be there.

Okay, dinner now.

ita, you can always forward the link to your sister! Because what are sisters for?

This past week, my brother has started using his Gmail account, which means I am tauntingly seeing his ID in my Gtalk IM. Yet he either isn't getting my messages or else he's just ignoring me. ::kicks brother who richly deserves it::

It somewhat diminishes one's confidence in the US Army Special Forces to start the day by seeing their 18-wheeler, fetchingly emblazoned with their logo and pictures of tough guys with guns, stuck in the lawn by the college campus bus stop. Apparently they decided to turn around on the lawn (why the ROAD right there that runs in a circle for exactly this purpose was not sufficient I do not know) and it was sort of damp. And 18 wheelers are heavy. Dumbasses.

THE COLBERT REPORT was a good one last night. This Tek Jansen was worthy of SEALAB 2021 at its best. Also, Stephen seemed to be having a big case of the sillies as he kept losing it from the handoff from Jon onward.

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

What do we need today? More centaur links, that's what!

Lots of pictures of a centaur: The Texas Centaur He's available for parties.

From BoingBoing:

My band has a centaur on rythym guitar -- check out a pic of him on our blog at www.wreckingbalss.com- there's a link to our myspace there. (it's spelled balSS cause it stands for sword and sorcery and there's already another band in Portland called the Balls).

Finally, who can even hear the term "centaur" without hearing Christopher Walken say "We don't hire dirty centaurs"? YouTube video: [link]

edit to fix Walken quote. Because Walken quotes should be reported accurately.

Where is everybody? I think I'll keep on posting centaur links until someone shows up....
