Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I have separate vacation and sick leave. Both roll over from year to year(though there is a cap on the amount of vacation you can roll over - not that I'm anywhere near that amount). G has the PTO thing now.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

A very nice man, as was (sadly--RIP, Bill!) Bill Strauss. They really did a good job of using discussion boards to develop a very vital community over at fourthturning.com, which was my first online hangout before I discovered Salon and, eventually, the Buffistas.

Looks like there was a lot going on at that school in those few years. The year after the Third Wave thing (which was April 1967), they started accepting black students from a nearby district. First issue of the paper that year is all in favor of this, and then pretty much every issue afterwards has several articles about how the school is dealing with "racial problems." And Ron Jones, the teacher in the Third Wave, was co-teaching a Sensitivity Training class (in which he promised that everything would be on the level.) And he was the adviser for a student activist club that eventually got disbanded by the school.

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

LJ is indeed borked like the Swedish Chef.

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

Hm. Mr Debunker mentions his referrer logs. I suspect we may get a visit from him.
