'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
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.

This is pretty amazing: Early Science Fiction Fanzines: A Cover Gallery Mostly from the '70s. Trek, Dr. Who, Star Wars, Logan's Run, Dark Shadows, etc...
Yee. I didn't need see Leia & C3P0 in bed. On the other hand, "Carbonite Maneuver" made me laugh.

I read Barack Obama's speech on race. It made me cry. Damn, he's good.
Me too. I'm sitting here with a kleenex. Man, he's so... good.
ETA: And I like that he didn't back away from Wright -- he gave a coherent explanation of what's wrong with the things he's been quoted for, but also explained that, where is it... "The fact that so many people are surprised to hear that anger in some of Reverend Wright's sermons simply reminds us of the old truism that the most segregated hour in American life occurs on Sunday morning." Damn right.
I am annoyed that my SSN endes with 92, because I am in the last batch of electronic deposits. I also think the whole thing is dumb, but I still want my $600.
FnL: FNL's myspace says that they are coming back for season 3. - no other details.
