'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Sharing her with billytea? Can't fight that, really. Couldn't even begin to. I'm very flattered, and please tell her I said so.
So, if Egypt copyrights the pyramids, but it doesn't extend to instances like the Luxor Hotel, what does it apply to, and what's the point again?
I definitely will.
She said "that board is addictive". I smiled my "duh!" to myself.
She then said she's trying to read Natter, and is so many posts behind, somewhen in November. I'm still wondering how to tell her about the attic, the pace in which things sometimes move around here, and the changes in threads. I'll have to find a way before Natter 56, I guess.

Um, each time a math teacher tries to explain something in spatial geometry, he has to pay a tax to the Egyptian government?
Wired picks their foot in mouth statements for 2007--firstly I encourage people to go out and be really stupid over the next few days so they have to retract.
Secondly, I love the comment (and subsequent revelations) from Watson.
Asteroid to hit Mars? I hope the rovers are okay.
Amazon's still pushing their one-click patent. I guess my boycott still stands.
Inflight internet to be filtered. No Skype, maybe, and no porn.

Hee.

Even if the timing had been planned, it couldn't have been better.
[Edit: I always think "Holmes" when I see "Watson", not "genome". Silly brain.]
Benazir Bhutto has been assassinated in a bombing. This can't be good.
Benazir Bhutto has been assassinated in a bombing
Woah!
Yeah. The radio did this thing where "there's been a bombing" and then "she's been wounded" and then, "Whoa, I think she's dead, hold on, we'll waffle about it 20 minutes, yes okay she's really dead."
The Beeb World Service just took over, and they're pretty certain.
Well, crap. When I turned off the radio, it was still There's Been A Bombing.
FUCK.
I just remembered E's brother and his wife are in Islamabad for the holidays.
FUCK.
I just read about the assassination when I got in. oh Jessica, I hope all is ok.
