Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

We saw Old Blind Dogs They are Scottish and play traditional music. They rocked the house. and I have a crush on the drummer.

Beth, I've seen them! They played at the Celtic festival here, a few years (or maybe more) ago -- I remember really liking them!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Only 40 minutes left! It's amazing how much time the weekly "oh, you want the network to actually work? Huh." session can take up.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm still at work. I have no idea how much longer these people I'm waiting for are going to take.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Someone just asked me "Oh, I should give you the RSVPs I got for the party we're throwing, huh? I should probably forward those to you, maybe?" Yes, since I PRINTED THE NAMETAGS AN HOUR AGO, and I'm leaving in 35 minutes!

ND and I love Ghost Hunters. They're really out to disprove or explain as much as they can. I just love them because they're so working class New England (I mean that as a compliment--it's like my dad's family got a ghost-hunting gig). I love how matter-of-fact there are about it all. No woo-woo there. It also makes it more believable when they get genuinely freaked out. I just love them.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

They played at the Celtic festival here, a few years (or maybe more) ago -- I remember really liking them!

I knew someone here had to have seen them! We decide their music was spiral shaped - sometimes loose, sometimes tight - some times ever changing. and Matt and I talked a lot about the drummer - he was sitting there- serene and rooted with such amazing joy. The audience was out of breath at the end of the show

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Can you think of any gift card you could get for $5 besides Starbucks or other coffee place where you could actually buy something with it?

itunes for sure.

I'd say gas station because I think, oh! free gallon. But that isn't very exciting, is it?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

What I am doing this weekend is NOT writing a book. I will be doing the endnotes however.

There is a chance that it might still come out before Christmas.

paperdol, there's a handy reference in Wikipedia to the differences between Science, Para-science, Pseudoscience and Fake Science. Anyway, they lay out the different distinctions and what the standard is.

Real science is pretty much: must be able to reproduce in a controlled experiment.

I don't know why people think consciousness is energy unless they're mistaking the electrochemical reactions in the brain. But you could just as well say that consciousness is chemistry. Which, frankly, makes more sense.
