No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

For those in the know, from Lilty in Firefly:
I've now watched about 10 seconds of 'Trash'. I'd like to report that it is a very good episode indeed.

Perhaps I have odd standards of tastefulness, but I'm finding far too many houses around here decorated in what I call the "Put the lights down and back away slowly" style of Xmas decoration.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Oh, and a couple of observations from ploughing through the marketing material:
"Only the lucky few will get to enjoy this opportunity" does not so much say 'dream home' as 'teen slasher movie'.
A laps pool can be a selling point. Having three large, rectangular pillars embedded in it just makes it look like you're trying to cull the pretentious. Or encouraging water pistol fights.
Advertising a property as having "three or more toilets" can have no good explanation:
1. The builder suffered from a bizarre combination of obsessive-compulsive disorder and anal fixation.
2. The agent keeps losing her place every time she counts past two.
3. The agent takes an avant-garde approach to function. "Well, I guess you could use this in a pinch..."

I'm wrapping presents. This is the way it goes:
Pick up present. Pull paper up around box. Look for scissors. Scissors have disappeared. Look under various piles for scissors. Go get more scissors. Pull paper around box. Cut paper. Now the tape has disappeared. It is apparently in cahoots with the scissors. Sit down. Find tape because the cutting edge is digging into my leg. Start taping package. Run out of tape. Get up to get more tape in the office. While in the office, check the internet. Forget why I'm in the office. Go back to the package. Realize I need tape. Come back to office and look for tape. Find tape and head back to package. Realize that it's time to put the clothes in the dryer. Go back to package. Go back to dryer and find tape. Finish taping package. Look for labels. Discover they've rolled under the chair. Get on hands and knees to retrieve labels. Put label on package and pick up package. Discover that the scissors were under the package.
Pick up present...

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
