Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I thought from what J was saying that she was watching it now-- I guess I have to wait though.

Oh, sorry. I was devouring the pictures, that's how I sound so informed-like.

That LED screen blows my mind. I wonder how many people are going, "I want that technology, and that technology--oh and throw in that dress while you're at it."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hungary seems to have gotten some help from Project Runway with their outfits.

Bwah! And, here I was just thinking how beautiful some of the costumes are. NSM in some cases.

Ok. I gotta bitch. I want to watch Haley Ishimatsu's qualifying dives on NBC. But it's asking me to install Silverlight. Can I even do that? Should I?

I'm talking about Comoros! (Not that you're quoting me....)
