Have discovered that my parents' hotel is actually about two blocks from the site of yesterday's explosion in New York. It's actually all fine, and they've got theater tickets and are museum-ing themselves, but between that and the weather, it does rather seem like the apocalypse landed on their travel plans.

And this is their vacation from New Orleans? Poor them.

And this is their vacation from New Orleans?

Ha. Yes.

Did lj just go kablooey again? I only got through replying to maybe half of my comments!

She is a latecomer to the information superhighway, but 75-year-old Sigbritt Lothberg is now cruising the Internet with a dizzying speed. Lothberg's 40 gigabits-per-second fiber-optic connection in Karlstad is believed to be the fastest residential uplink in the world, Karlstad city officials said.

shrift, who? Clicky-link! I needs a clicky link!

Ryland from Cobra Starship, who is totally adorable: [link]

I guess Ryland has to be pretty inured to gay, gay shenanigans considering who else is in his band and who he's been touring with, but still. It's like the entire internet is now the merch booth and they can SEE US.

I just hope these boys take Mikeyway's advice and don't Google themselves.

OMG, and that whole area is like on lockdown. My sympathies!

Wow, Dana, that sucks. Also, Polyamorous Recs is blocked from my work and I have no home access anymore, so I am sort of bereft, because I wanted to see if you had any Dr. Who recs.

I also just had a really weird conversation with my conservative, yet wonderful boss. She really is great, and is our personal moral code of honesty and integrity, even in "sales" makes us work really well together. However, every once and a while we talk politics. And I say I can't vote for a Republican president because (among other things) I support gay marriage. So, she is really into not TELLING people the "right" point of view, so she questions me, saying "So, tell me, do you support polygamy?". I think I surprise her because I actually say that if three consenting adults want to get married, bully for them!. But WTF?

We do. And Torchwood. Would you like me to send them to you?

That would be great, Dana! I like to print off stuff for the busride home. I am at nbrookstaylor at gmail dot com.
