Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If Teppy got paid for her Titans knowledge, she's be driving a pretty cool rocket car....

What is even happening?

"Bright" brings to me a series of annoying connotations. Mainly, it sounds like some "next level of human evolution" thing from some SciFi story....

Funny, because Indigo Children came to my mind.

Heh. After I made that post, Indigo Children came to my mind too - except I couldn't remember the term....

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

Indigo children like Jenny McCarthy's kid?

I saw a couple of Amazon River cruises this morning, and they looked pretty damned cool.

The "Indigo Children" make me roll my eyes forever.

Cass, we ate at "Heathmans"? It's a restaurant in a hotel of the same name? The food was good, the drinks were awesome.

Tonight we plan to roam the Pearl District, and/or 23rd street. Not sure. There will also be watching of "So You Think You Can Dance"

One of these [link] sounds way cool, cruises on working freighters. You go to exotic ports and get to watch stuff actually happen. Some of the Middle Eastern ports you're not allowed to get off in, but I think it would be so, so cool to just sit and watch the ocean, then watch the port traffic.

Oh yeah - I read about freighter cruises a few years back. Sounds really cool, but I got the impression most of the cruises would take a month or more.

Still, with enough planning maybe I could take a month off at some point....

eta: Looks like there's a number of cruises on freighters to Europe and back that take about a month. I suppose one could take the ship one-way and fly back.

I think ocean-watching is where they lose me. Unless it's framed by land, not that interesting to me. I think that's why river cruises pique my interest more.

They've got a 77-day cruise that goes from New York, through the Med, through the Suez Canal, to the Arabian Coast, to India, and back.

Gosh.

I wonder if the ships have internet access... You could make it a long, (mostly) working trip.
