Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

yeah, i didn't realize quite how low that dress was until she was sitting down. It didn't look that bad when she was standing outside of Luke's.

Always Anti-fascist!

Well, it wasn't that they aren't pretty breasts...it's that sometimes they forget it's not LG, Hollywood actress, they're dressing, but Lorelai Gilmore. OK, I admit it...I'm prudish about my clothes and was even a bit shocked. (Not because I've never seen breasts before, or anything. But I would feel pretty naked wandering around Main Street that way.)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

he he ... I once worked with a woman who, um, Mother Nature had been very generous with. She tended to wear things that demonstrated this (she was in an upper level professional job). Until the day she wore the wrap-around blouse that gapped and tended to un-wrap-around when she sat down and slumped a little ... and she sat in a meeting right in front of the speaker. She gapped, he gaped, and he kept losing track of what he was saying. She got a lot of teasing about that (seems only fair, right?).

Art Crawl!!!

Jericho: Sadly, zero Mimi and Stanley. Why not? They were able to show Emily, Mary and Mrs. Green? (Okay, because they were at the hospital. . .)

Dale continues to be annoying.

And Super!Skeet cracked under the fear of his brother being tortured. Also, still no Heather. (Or Heather - still dead.)

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I don't know why someone hasn't shot Dale. At least we did get an extra dose of bad-ass Hawkins,

I am beginning to wonder about the apparently infinite amount of gunpowder and ammunition. Where the hell did they get the explosive for all those mortars?

Art Crawl!!!

I know! Not to mention the ability to form the shells - supplies, power, skill, whatever. It doesn't make sense. And why waste your energy on mortar shells -- why not figure out a way to find food?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I finally watched this weeks Gilmore Girls. I didn't even notice Lorelai's blouse. I loved the Lorelai and Luke scenes and I adore Doyle. I feel bad for Rory too, but I'm glad they're not having her life be perfect. I'm still trying to figure out how she is graduating now after taking a semester off.

Art Crawl!!!

My guess is that in her first years she took way more than the average load and that was how she was able to make up time.

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

AP exams would do it. I entered college with enough AP credits (2 semesters US history, 2 semesters English, 1 semester US government, 2 semesters calculus, 2 semesters biology) that I had enough credits to graduate by the end of junior year. This wasn't all that unusual, and would probably be more common from a private school like Chilton (though some private schools now are moving away from AP courses, plenty still have them.)

When I went to PC they wouldn't allow us to graduate early with AP credits, we could get out of taking electives, but you still had to earn 120 credits at the college to graduate from there. I just assumed Yale would be strict about that too.
