'Potential'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
OK, why is it that the tornado was in Brooklyn, but people in Queens will still have a hell of a time trying to get home tonight? [link]
What happened in NYC today? Some sort of large storm I take it?
It was seriously just two inches of rain about 7 this morning, but it completely fucked up all public transit.
Thankfully, everyone here understands here but it always throws people when we are back in the US.
Wouldn't throw people in S. Florida. I find the mixed language thing fun. A lot of parents don't want their kids speaking anything other than English. They go through this big effort to not teach their children Spanish/Creole/Whatever. Like the kids aren't going to pick it up from all the adults around them.
Hooray, we survived the Stormpocalypse!
I rate that baby Awesome!
Wouldn't throw people in S. Florida.
Actually, as I was typing, I was thinking, 'well, except when we go to Florida"
I am so glad I did not go in today.
Assuming it is static, an amusing photo on the NYT website right now: [link]
Um...
The Piss-Screen is a pressure-sensitive inlay for urinals, to play a game with your pee. The game is displayed on a screen above the urinal. We teamed up with bars across Frankfurt, and installed the Piss-Screen in the men's restrooms. We designed a driving game in the style of Need for Speed with the clue that people would have a terrible crash into the oncoming-traffic if their reaction was too slow. After the crash we placed the message: "Too pissed to drive? Take a Taxi instead! Call: 069-733030"
Kate Hudson: Men Are Primal (Interview)
On her outlook on men:
“As primal beings, men are not supposed to be monogamous. When people ask, ‘Do you believe in monogamy?’ Well, of course that’s what you want. But part of what I love about men is that it’s hard for them to be monogamous. Women, I think, need to spend more time understanding men than changing men. And vice versa.”
Well, um... huh.
eta: Also, WTF is a "primal being"? One who's id only?

Animal! "WOMAN! WOOOOMAAAAAN!!!!" I know what her ex looks like - I think Animal'd be a better deal.
Someone please tell me not to freak out. Please. One of the things in the GCS email box today was mail from someone who is a reality show producer, and has done a LOT of stuff. (And who has worked with Jill Tracy a musical artist I admire.) He wants to talk to me about developing a program based off of GCS. Tonight suddenly involves looking at the contract I have with my (awesome!) agent, sending her some mail, and hyperventilating.
(I may delete this. I don't know. Freaking out, freaking out, la la la.)
