Did I not link?

I meant to!

And now lot 403: the Old Master worth £5m. Do I hear £300?

That's the actual headline from the Guardian.

Our wings are not tired.

Ugh Connie. We see that in Florida all the time too. Signs all over that we are in a serious drought and burned out sections lining the highways, and people driving I-95 flicking cigarettes out the window.

Scola, would you spoil me? I've been desultorily keeping up with that show, but missed last night.

Aimee, if you're still looking for Ron/Hermione stories, I like Midnight Confessions by Alloy at the Checkmated website (which started out as a Ron/Hermione fanfic site). It;s another longer story (21 chapters), and veers wildly out of what JKR will end up doing in Deathly Hallows, I'm sure, but it's nicely Weasley-centric and even has an adult-rated separate chapter.

Scola, would you spoil me?

They tried to wrap things up, and a gazillion things happened.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Why stumped?

It's just not an area of the fandom I'm that familiar with. I know of some stories with Ron/Hermione in them, but it's generally in the background. (I'm really good with slash pairings, though.)

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Details, man!

Actually I just want to know whether the lovely black FBI agent turns out to be the hero of the story. I would even be marginally happy if she got the boy.

I've thought of a new slogan for Utah: "We'd be Texas if only we drank more beer."

I guess I am kind of glad that I didn't have to call the cops re: the dead body. That would've been awkward.

well, only if you killed him.

Details, man!

Huge, honking Traveller spoilers:

Program opens with a 3-way Mexican standoff between the black FBI agent and the three boys. The 3 boys decide to team up, (even though they don't really trust Will), and run off, with the black FBI agent firing at them. They go and hide in a store in Chinatown, where the tall, dark-haired boy beats the shit out of Will, which is weird because Will is like a super-Ninja or something. It turns out the black FBI agent winged Will.

Back in front of the club the boss FBI guy is pissed that everyone got away, arrests the girlfriend, and puts BFBIA on desk duty.

Back in the store, Will convinces the two boys that they have to go back to the rich-boy's car (now in FBI impound), and retrieve the painting that Will stole, hidden in the floorboard. They will use that as a bargaining chip when they confront the scary blue-eyed guy.

On desk duty, the black FBI agent researches everything that the tall dark-haired boy told him before he ran away, and goes to the home of some Insurance guy to talk about stock sales. When she's there, the guy gets a phone call on his cell, goes in to the kitchen, and returns with a gun and starts firing. The BFBIA returns fire and kills the guy. His cell phone is saved as evidence, and she asks to get the phone # of the last number called.

Meanwhile, the Hispanic FBI agent reviews footage of the rich-boy's father, and sees the rich-boy in the background. He reports that to his boss, and the boss decides to arrest the father. They go to some snooty social club, and arrest him. While they were walking out, the white-haired bad guy shows up, and shoots the father. The HFBIA chases the white-haired guy, and finally gets the drop on him in an abandoned building. As he goes to handcuff him, the boss FBI guy shows up behind him and shoots and kills the Hispanic FBI agent! The boss is a bad guy too, in cahoots with the white-haired guy!

The black FBI agent is later back at the office, mourning the death of her partner, when the evidence guy comes back to her with the phone # of the person who talked to the guy who tried to kill her. She calls it, and her boss picks up! She realizes that her boss wants her dead!

Meanwhile, the three boys kidnap the creepy blue-eyed guy, and record him while they get him to confess. They go in the creepy blue-eyed guy's limo and leave him in front of the offices of a newspaper, call the newspaper and tell them to come down and get their story. The creepy blue-eyed guy mutters something about the "4th branch", which I guess was supposed to set up season 2.

As they walk away, the limo blows up. The End. Lame.
