'Safe'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
No wonder I get so frustrated in those classes. And that's after the Aphrodite's birth story, AKA Huge Flying Penis story.

Thanks, Barb!
Yeah, things have Not Been Fun in the publishing industry this year. Luckily I'm fairly certain my job is safe as long as the company itself is solvent, but workload pressure is going to be increasing and there's no question of bonuses or even cost-of-living raises for the foreseeable future.
At Random House, Wednesday's reorganization has sewn great confusion.
C'mon Washington Post blogsters! It's "sown" not "sewn."
The only problem with the Strange Buildings is that this one is apparently destroyed, not strange: [link]
