Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So, random question - given the current state of fuel prices, is there any chance AT ALL that airlines will be having summer sales this year? I'm looking at plane ticket prices for August (I have to be in SF for a wedding) and they are PAINFUL. Normally I don't buy plane tickets until about 6 weeks before I travel so I don't miss out on promotional pricing, but this summer I'm just not sure there's going to BE any.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Given fuel prices, I'd be shocked if tickets came down.

HA!

They should convert one section of the old jail downtown (before they re-open it) and have them in that building all alone.

Jessica, I doubt it. The NYT ran an article over the weekend with suggestions on how to get cheaper tickets, but still? Probably not.

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

The Real World: IN JAIL! would be so awesome.

Ugh, the Real World? I'll take Johnny Depp and Christian Bale, thanks.

Real World in jail would be perfect!

So I just accidentally registered 23 times for something from Wyeth Ayerst pharmaceuticals. My internet connection is wonky and keeps timing out so I did what I know NOT to do and clicked refresh.

Oops. Maybe I'll get 23 free samples of tylenol and 23 free pedometers. Or, I hope, that their folks notice and only send one.

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

Ask them to take the G somewhere, that'll solve your problems.

Also, I bet they're filming somewhere in Brooklyn other than Williamsburg because W'burg be UGLY. So many other neighborhoods are really pretty.
