It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on 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

Sumi, on Prison Break I'm confused how the big explosion brought water. The guards had shut it off and Michael broke the valve? Won't they just shut it off again higher up the line?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Staten Island's Ninja Burglar

To me, this nickname implies that he's stealing ninjas.

You'd have to be damn sneaky to steal Ninjas. Dude.

Art Crawl!!!

Prison Break: Had the guards shut the water off? I thought that there had been damage during the water which caused it to stop working and Michael unblocked whatever that heck it was and got it to work again.

Prison Break: I just don't know! All I know for sure is that I'm eternally grateful Bellick now has pants.

He's a hell of an actor though.

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

I can't decide if being seen but not in an identifiable way makes you more ninja than not being seen would.

Koan for the ages.

Those giraffes look surreal. Watching hippos fight was also funny, but with more of a conviction that might bury their differences and kill the onlookers themselves. Seemed to be about who could open their mouths wider for a big old wet kiss.

We talk about graceful degradation in my work, too. I like the term.

Watched Private Practice and DSM while holding Grace last night. That might be a nice multitasking thing to keep up with. I liked DSM more than I thought I would. Partly because it amused me to see that Baldwin playing supposedly competent.

Grace and Noah are six months old today. Time flies. Of course their adjusted age is a little over two and a half months.

Which means it's my six month anniversary at work. Happy halfsies, kids! Just in time too, since we're not allowed to use vacation time during our probation period, and I have to go home soon!

Can I just squeal? This is where my dad's celebrating his birthday. I show up on Thursday, but they don't come up from the capital until Friday, so I get a day of lounging all to myself. Of course, I had to move up a doctor's appointment so I could lounge medicated if need be (however, drinks are free, so I can help myself in a pinch).

It's weird--I paid full price for my room. Never done that in Jamaica. Either I'm cotching with my parents, or someone knows a someone.

Not cheap. But fucking beautiful.

If I must have migraines, let it be reclining in the pool, or bobbing in the ocean.
