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.

So, I could use some advice from those of you who know a bit about plants...

I'm looking for a houseplant to help oxygenate my really stuffy art studio. Here's what I'm looking for;

  • Low maintenance.
  • Doesn't grow too much. Not more than 2 feet tall is good.
  • Low to zero scent.
  • Doesn't attract spiders.
  • Doesn't require much light, because it really ain't going to get it.

This is probably a tall order, but don't ask, don't get, right?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Some big ol' fern?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

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

It's a great length for you, Dana. Even if blurry.

Nice! Cracks me up that both Dana and shrift are looking so serious and determined.

I wish I could do shrift's cut, but my hair is alternately too fluffy/flat and cranky wavy. Sometimes. PLus, can't carry it with my face.

I kill plants.

It's hard work taking a picture in a mirror!

Cute cut! It's like leaving Houston made you even prettier.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Pretty is hard!

And, yet? Shrift and Dana seem to accomplish it!
