Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Next ScoopMe article is up. Spoilers clearly marked at the bottom, one can read it and not get spoiled if one doesn't scroll past the spoiler mark.

Per usual, spoilery for unAmericans, for this season's Angel.

Scroll down to March 11th. Neil Gaiman not only mentioned me in his journal, but quoted one of my columns. Excuse me while I faint.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Hail Buffistas!

The time to vote again is at hand:

We are voting on:

ITEM 1: FORMAL DISCUSSION THREAD
Do we want a separate thread for actual voting discussions?

ITEM 2: CLOSE DISCUSSION
Do we want to close the talking about a subject when the voting starts?

ITEM 3: VOTER TURNOUT
How many Buffistas does it take to make a vote count?
Do votes of "no preference" count toward this?

ITEM 4: SECONDS
a) Should more than one Buffista be needed in order to move something to formal discussion and vote?
b) Please choose a minimum number of people who have to agree with the original proposer before a proposal moves to formal discussion, if the above item passes.

The voting form and revised proposal are here:

All is well that ends in pizza.

Decided to repost this here.

Okay, I've simplified my Mac.com website.

A first for me, posting on Sunnydale Press:

According to a poster at the BC&S:

"I just wanted to let you know that Jane Espenson is going to be at Ball State University this Friday doing a talk called "Writing Buffy". She will be in the Arts and Journalism building from 12:00-12:50 in room 175.

The biography attatched to her visit announcement claims that she has co-written "End of Days", the final episode of Buffy.

BSU is in Muncie, Indiana, about an hour away from Indy and two from Dayton.

If you can make it, do go. It would be great to have a large showing of support for Jane."

I love listening to Jane talk about writing during her Succubus Club appearances. She's funny, interesting, and smart.
