Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, Cindy. I am really not laughing. Except for the part where I am just a little. I think I took an eyebrow or two off growing up. And my widow's peak. Random defuzzing for ??? I have no idea why.

FTR, this week's Grey's Anatomy was crap.
This makes me feel better about my tv recording the wrong channel and missing it.

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

The episode was, among other things, to set up Addison's new series. Which is a cute idea, but they really needed fewer familiar actors. It made me play a guessing game of who would be a regular, and who would be guest starring in the putative series. And way too much talking and too little medicine. Which is saying something. Also a lot of pod people.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I had way too much "so, Amy Brenneman said to Taye Diggs..." in my head.

Hey! Don't we have a thread for this now??

There isn't a thread I can go into without getting spoiled for the rest of my shows, so I don't have a thread. You may.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I also concur on GA. The new show seems like it will annoy me a lot, and I already want to firebomb the elevator.

Also, I don't like Meredith, but how about you give the woman a break already, people? Seriously.

eta: What ita said, on the threads.

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

I'm about 2 1/2 weeks behind on all my shows, now. I saw a preview for that GA and I did note a number of actors from shows that were cancelled this season .

Has Raines been cancelled?

Now tagless for your comfort.

mac had 9 pouting fits today. I have started counting them for him on the weekends. He doesn't like it, but it also snaps him out of them right quick because he does not want to get a high number.

I yelled at him twice. He says screamed, but he has never heard me scream. He has no idea

We had a really bad day with Owen. He's not interested in potty training but is flat out refusing to wear diapers, underpants or well...any pants at all. We had to draw a line today and it was not pleasant for anyone.

Owen cried only slightly more than me.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

For those who aren't behind or worried about spoilage, there is GA talk in the experimental drama thread. Um, in case there was anyone who didn't actually know already.

Because the guns were made for righties. Okay, but I was using a pump action shotgun. The safety would have been flipped, but I was sucking manipulating it with my right hand anyway. Port loading would have been easier, and the slide release was central, on the front of the trigger guard. Much simpler than shooting Glocks leftie, which is what I usually do, handgun-wise.

See, anyone who knows this much about guns should be able to do whatever she wants. If that means shooting on the left, so be it. IJS. Also, what idjits.

Crap. I just remembered why I'm WIDE AWAKE, when I should be heading to bed. I had iced coffee late this afternoon. And two beers! But I guess they don't counteract in the long term.

brillig

In defense of letting people shoot right-handed guns left-handed:

Hubby went hunting once and was using a right-handed rifle with some reloaded ammo (ammo where the casings are filled with powder and a slug by someone in his home rather than at a factory). Reloaded ammo is often perfectly safe, but with this batch the reloader had used the wrong powder, much more powerful powder than the round was rated for.

To summarize, Hubby has a two-inch scar on his chin from where the barrel of the rifle peeled off, there's a tiny scar on his temple from where a piece of the breech rebounded, and if he'd been shooting it right-handed, the bolt would have gone through his brain.

So ita is perfectly entitled to shoot leftie.
