Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I just remember that the only place without anything really bad was Utah

Clearly they forgot all of the snow.

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

Yeah. And that big lake with all salt in it.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The Quarter, of course, always having been totally representative of the city as a whole.

Well, sure, its like Times Square in New York. See one Broadway show and pay twice as much at the Applebee's and you can tell me all about my city!

No, wait, I forgot the trip to Ground Zero. They even use a subway for that. I'm always tempted to give them the wrong directions when they ask me "How do you get to Ground Zero?"

(Of course, the problem is that most of the people who SAY these things come from places where the mall is a pretty good indicaton of the entire resident culture...)

Ann, that's a ferret.

And we're due for another 2-foot snow storm sometime around the winter of 2010.

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

Allyson, I'm saying this as someone who has shopping phobia and needs to gain weight: you're very pretty. Please try and remember that as you shop. I hope you can avail yourself of Robin's help. She's very wise.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Randomly, I just got my first CI test recipe, and I'm ridiculously chuffed.

Also, I just got my first bitching-out of the year from a student who was looking for his online course materials in the wrong course site. I think I shall make a lovely cake and test how well it smashes in firstname.lastname@looniversity.edu's face. There must be a place in the test recipe thingy to report those results, yes?

paperdol, you ARE pretty. And you're smart. And you can write. So rely on Robin and anyone else who offers real help.
