The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Another CM question-what's the relative rank of the Patinkin/Montegna character--do they outrank Hotch? Power seems to fluctuate.

I was wondering about that. I thought Patinkin outranked Hotch, but Hotch seems to outrank Montegna.

CDC people

[Makes shrieky Donald Sutherland-in-Body-Snatchers noise]

Er, sorry. CDC was a client on a project. But I'm sure the people I dealt with weren't the people you met. They can't all be that stupid.

and Lawrence Kasdan.

Neat!

(I owe you a call. Someday when I'm not falling-down tired, I swear.)

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?

I could be wrong, but I think Hotch outranks all of them. He's the head of the BAU. BUT, because of Patinkin's experience, he would often take over from Hotch whereas I think Montegna respects the heirarchy a touch more. Not totally as his experience is also great than Hotch's.

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

D'oh. I worked out how to set the scheduler on my Roomba. Forget I said anything.

Julia Ormond was on CSI:NY. When she smiles she has a gazillion wrinkles around her mouth. Looks really good on her.

I love Reid, and I do want to take care of him. Also, though (or perhaps relatedly) he is a physical type I tend to be attracted to as well.

“Not dead yet!”

A beginner’s guide to ‘Twilight’

Yeah, we've been talking about that article and the phenomena in general over in literary. It's getting beyond freaky. Seven year-old girls asking Rob Pattinson to bite them and other girls scratching their necks to blood runs freely just prior to meeting him.

So far the reviews on the movie seem to be universally "meh," stating that the screenwriter improved on Meyer's clunky prose and overwrought dialogue and that Kristin Stewart refuses to let Bella be a complete doormat. However, the USA Today reviewer pretty much loathed it.

'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"

Sounds like the actors are better than the material, at least.

“Not dead yet!”

The SF Chronicle review made me snort coffee:

Which brings us to the sparkling, a phenomenon that causes light-stricken vampires to suddenly look as if they've had a horrible accident involving a glitter truck and an angry mob armed with Bedazzlers. What may have seemed cool in the book looks like a human disco ball onscreen.

"Twilight" has a few gory plot turns - mostly offscreen - and one near-sex scene that may offend a few Amish people, but the rest is maybe 33 percent less wholesome than "High School Musical." It's almost certainly less risque than what you were watching when you were 14. (Cue the soundtrack to "Risky Business.")

-- Advisory: This movie contains some violence and sensuality. This material also attracts packs of girls with extremely high-pitched voices, who will scream every time their favorite character comes onscreen. Bring earplugs, or sit at least six rows away from anyone female between the ages of 12 and 15.
