You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Steak and Ale was still in business?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It was here. I didn't know that the two restaurants were owned by the same company and based in Texas.

Steak and Ale disappeared from here a long time ago. I sort of liked them, they were dark and had a lot of walls.

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

Go, shrift!!!

RIP Scrabulous

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Allyson, that book sounds adorable. And I suspect there's a certain perky-goth Seattle-ista who's going to go positively...ahem...batty over it.

I haven't been this excited and terrified about writing in a very long time. I'm so nervous.

shrift! You want I should send Vampire People to them?

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

Bennigans? I have a soft spot for them--I was addicted to their godawful chicken quesadillas for quite a while.

Know who else is supposed to disappear? Kinkos. FedexKinkos is supposed to take them off the signage, although I don't think any closures are planned. More nostalgia for me, of about the same period.

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

Isn't he also the guy who wouldn't back down on building the bridge o' pork, aka the bridge to nowhere?

Yes, yes he is. Also, bringing a Cray II into the Geophysical Institute to crunch data in order to see if the Northern Lights have any harnessable energy.

I guess Alaskans are looking to new political models: [link]

In Alabama?
