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

The new season of The Venture Bros. premiers June 4. [link] (Has a few stills from the new season.)

Also, The Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend action figures soon to be released by Kid Robot: [link] (Scroll down a bit.) Or, rather, "mini-figures." Action figures are pose-able, right?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Tom, clearly the answer is that you need to spend all of your birthdays out here in SF, since NYC isn't nice enough to you.

Oh, god, shrift, James Marsters is apparently coming to Dragoncon again this year.

This means if there are any other Torchwood guests, we will have to deal with the Spike fangirls to attend the panels. t weeps

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

My parents have the financial stuff all worked out an in order and we have all sat done and discussed. My mother is determined not to live far away from us in prep for the years when they will need assistance, but she has her own elderly mother to take care of right now, so they are staying in TX for the near future. They HATE NYC, so I am torn about them moving here vs. me and mac moving down there. Despite things being much better since the new job, I am still considering moving back within the next few years.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Tom! Birthday!

Second of all, San Francisco does not have a crippling inferiority complex about NY. It defers to New York until Bon makes ridiculous claims about Manhattan being gayer than San Francisco. (So Not!)

I may have been wrong about that. You have better burritos, too.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

I have had The Discussion with my mother.

At the time, I was living in California, so her request that I act as POA was unworkable. That duty fell to my uncle.

MY job is, in the event of her falling into a vegetative state or whatever, to be the one to say "Pull the plug".

There are days, I must admit, where knowing that keeps me warm inside.

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

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TOM!

Jessica, having someone else earwormed does help. I was hoping the Pacific wouldn't make that impossible.

Tommy--I agree with you. I consider experimental probability a record, not a predictor. If we were talking coin flips I could potentially see the next coin flip as a corrector, but free throws aren't random. They just are.

But the TV show I was watching last night used free throws in an example much like the one I used above. So I'm wondering what's wrong in my interpretation/retelling of the whole thing. I'm assuming that (unlike the Smithsonian) that the Discovery Channel isn't wrong.
