Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Cos it's the 14th in UnAm Land, I just wanted to say Happy Valentine's Day to the love of my life. Known to everyone here as moonlit.

Awwwww. I love that schmoop. Happy Valentine's day to both of you, and send her our regards. We miss seeing her.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

A very, very random question for the UnAms, specifically our neighbors to the North. I have a friend who is flat out obsessed with DeGrassi Junior High (At least that's what it was called when I was a kid- I guess it's evolved Saved By the Bell-style). During her ravings last night she said there was an ep that was banned/pulled in the States. Her birthday is coming up, and I thought if I could get a tape of it, it would make her life. If by any chance someone had one, I'd gladly pay.

I know that this is probably the longest shot EVER, but I didn't know where else to go. Has anyone heard of this?

Lilty, I can't help you. I was never a Degrassi fan. You might want to post the same thing in "When Come Back, Bring Tape." Do you know what season the episode was in, because Season One was just released on DVD.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It was relatively recently. I remember hearing about it. (I'm thinking sometime around autumn 2003, but I could be wrong.)

Hil, there's been a few of them. There was one recently on Degrassi, Next Gen, and another on the original show. Both were about abortion.

Thanks Hec.

...send her our regards. We miss seeing her.

Regards were sent. Moon misses everyone too but she's been busy getting the last of her assignments out of the way and now she's just started her final set of rounds. She'll be finished on March 11 and then she can officially register as a teacher in Victoria. After that she'll have enough time to actually catch up all her subs on b.org and start posting again.

I'll be heading back over to Vic on March 12 to spend some more time with her.

Didn't know where else to put these. They aren't about Lost but are still OMGWTF????

Looney Tunes Characters undergo "re-imagining".

eta: another link, this one showing the "new" Bugs and Daffy.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Okay, at least the second link says that the characters will be the descendants of the originals, sort of like Batman Beyond, if Batman was Bugs Bunny. Still...

Ann, that's a ferret.

Set in the year 2772, "Loonatics" will follow the descendants of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Lola Bunny, the Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote and Lola Bunny.

I don't recognize Lola Bunny and Lola Bunny. Who are they?
