Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Letterman is NOT going easy on McCain. Cool. "Do you have a relationship with Gordon Liddy?" Ha!

Aurelia, how did the rehearsal go tonight?

Tonight was the 1st preview. It was also the 1st time I saw the whole show. Tomorrow will be a full work day, but now that I've seen the show I have a much better idea of how to proceed. Tomorrow's preview should be pretty good.

I haven't managed any sightseeing at all. I'm hoping that I can at least wander up to Chinatown on a meal break tomorrow.

“Not dead yet!”

Congrats, Billytea and Wallybee! And I cannot wait to see what the actual birth announcement will read like.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Billytea, if you name the kid Joey you'll be missing a grand chance! :-) Congratulations to you and the Wallybee!

hip deep in pie

Congrats Billytea and Wallybee!

My throat hurts today, and I don't know if it's some weird hangover from drinking many beers last night or if I am getting sick.

It can't be good that for the last few days I've been a) stressed, b) catching a cold c) getting less than 5 hours of sleep. They're all related and feeding each other.

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

Best. Birth. Announcement. EVER.

Congratulations, Billytea!

That's what I meant--preview. I hope tonight goes well, and you can see a little bit of SF.

Or you could just come back.
