Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I fucking hate flagyl.

Anyway, I hope Noah's able to do without the extra oxygen soon, but glad he's still got that option while the air quality is the suckiest.

Worst air quality I've experienced was Prague in the spring. Inversions caused all the smog to get stuck in the valley and it hurt to inhale and you'd get all dizzy. You'd see people walking around with unlit cigarettes, using the filters. Oh & your clothes all got this grey film. Blech.

Interesting. Tamarind have always had this foul savory/salty aftertaste I hated it. Passionfruit on the other hand is great.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Had Liefeld illustrated V for Vendetta (for instance), the plot wouldn't have been nearly as disturbing as all the characters' missing hands and feet.

HA!

That is a verrry disturbing story.

Our friend from Germany-who is in town right now-asked for something called a gin lime last night. It sounded like a gimlet. It is not, in fact, like a gimlet.

Could you substitute Rose's? like in a gimlet?

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

I always heard the Zoot suit thing as having neat pleats.

"Reet pleat" is the proper phraseology. This is confirmed by both Malcom X and Tom and Jerry.

PBS just ran a promo for a show called Wild tonight at 10. I think they made it for billytea. It's called "Penguin Invasion" and seems to be about penguins ...invading a town. For real.

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

It's called "Penguin Invasion" and seems to be about penguins ...invading a town. For real.

I skimmed reading that and thought you were talking about feral penguins. That would rock.

Or waddle.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I want to see penguins invading. All I can find is giant crocodiles.

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 friend of mine got a second cat a few weeks ago, and since then her two cats have not gotten along. So I may be getting a cat. It's not hairless; in fact, it has rather long fur. But it's a very pretty kitty, and very sweet and affectionate (to humans, anyway).

blue penguins are known to invade homes in NZ. Or you know, places under steps etc in homes. Then they nest there and are an adorable nuisance.
