Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

Eating french fries or chips daily may double women's chances of ovarian cancer. Elevator told me that on my way up with lunch. Burger and fries.

Elevator also told me the Lakota seceded, and now I need to go read up on that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Eating french fries or chips daily may double women's chances of ovarian cancer.

Seriously? Yikes.

Luckily, I only had a few french fries today. Off my coworker's plate. Mostly I had pizza. That's good for me, right??

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Eating french fries or chips daily may double women's chances of ovarian cancer.

Another upside of the whole hysterectomy thing.

orders fries. Again.

I wasn't going to eat all the fries anyway.

The new country would issue its own passports and driver licenses, and living there would be tax-free, provided residents renounce their U.S. citizenship, he said, according to a report from Agence France-Presse.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My link has sound!

I was right! But without sound.

your elevator is smarter than my stairs.

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

I saw the Lakota thing on LJ yesterday (courtesy of David Schwartz, actually, for those who remember him)--it's more of a political stunt than anything else, so far as I can tell. Russell Means has no actual political status in any Indian nation, he's an activist. None of the actual Lakota tribal councils have spoken out in favor of this secession.

As a result, it's... well, it's just people mouthing off. You might as well have me and Lee announce that California is seceding. Which is not to say that the tribes haven't been shafted, but I kind of expect we'd have heard about it before now, because the tribes would have been doing the democratic thing and talking about it endlessly for months first.

Oh, and Scrappy? Your niece is rude. I think you should be glad she's not going to be living with you.
