Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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

A Minnesota judge has denied Sen. Larry Craig's request to withdraw his guilty plea to a disorderly conduct charge stemming from his arrest in an airport men's room sex sting.

In a 27-page order, Judge Charles Porter found Craig had entered the guilty plea "accurately, voluntarily and intelligently" and it was too late to withdraw his admission.

So I guess he's gonna resign now, huh? Or, um, not....

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

I wish he wouldn't resign.

See, because THAT would be because he's gay.

paperdol, I think Neave might be a version of the Irish name Niamh (which is hella common over here - I know three), which is pronounced Neave. And Niamh-ey is a common nickname for people named Niamh as well, oddly.

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

Bussed home for lunch. I feel very not LA right now.

Just before I left the cafe where I had lunch, I could suddenly smell the aroma of chocolate chip cookies just out of the oven. Bastards! Of course I bought one, but I did point out that was unfair marketing....

I love that name. So pretty. And it's sort of a gentle two syllabels, right?

My niece due in Jan. is to be called Esther after our grandmother. You don't hear of girls being called that much these days. My mom says she knows several Queen Esthers who are all older black ladies. I love that "Queen" is right in the name.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Am home after my dentist appointment. Need a crown on one of my fillings. Oh, joy.

Even without the "Queen" attached it's pretty regal.

If my nephew who is due about a month before niece is given the name that's the front runner right now (Evan Matthew) he and niece will have the same initials (her's will be Mary).

And it's sort of a gentle two syllabels, right?

It's pronounced two different ways, one one syllable - Neave, and one two syllables, Nee-uv. I know one one Niamh who likes it one way, and one who likes it the other.
