It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

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

I think I'm with Perkins on both those.

How long do I have to stay at work tomorrow? Past a clean desk, that is? I have my exit interview at 10:15, but have no idea what's acceptable past that. And right now I fear I need an ER.

Okay, I'm only really surprised this didn't happen years ago:

I always wonder what sex addiction looks like from inside a relationship, if infidelity isn't involved. Don't want to make any presumptions about DD.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Can I talk about how beautifully styled and color-coordinated the Obama family are? From his tie to the dresses... it's really well done. The repeating tones and colors are perfect - and purplish -- that great combo of red and blue!

But she *really* has to stop with the giant stick-on rosettes. (Uh, Michelle, not the girls. Their dresses were uber-cute.)

The Boy, looking over my shoulder, just volunteered that he likes Michelle's rosettes. This disturbs me.

I kind of assumed that he got caught.

Yeah. I don't love the rosettes. I was thinking mostly about the colors.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I thought the speech was great too. Not that there are not large parts I disagree with. But I'm pretty sure that whether I agree with them or not they represent real beliefs Obama has - even if some of them appeal to America's worse rather than better angels. In terms of being independent of foreign oil in ten years, it is possible - expensive, but physically possible, and the expense is not out of line if it is a priority. Mind you I think a better goal for the next ten years is Gore's coal of 100% carbon free electricity combined with phasing out most long haul trucking. But if reducing oil consumption by 70% was the priority there are ways to do it.
