If any of you were headed to London to see David Tennant in Hamlet, cash in your plane tickets.
He's hurt his back and can't perform. But Patrick Stewart's still there.
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
That Tennant article contains a major Doctor Who spoiler, BTW.

buy it buyit buy it. for the nephew. Honestly, I think the book is advanced for the average 9 yr old. There are things that my 4th graders ( from my book club ) would just miss. -- I find amazon puts a lot of books in the 9-12 range that might be ok on a numerical reading level for that group , but interest or emotional level is higher or lower.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
They're saying that Candidate #5 is Jesse Jackson, Jr.
That was my first guess.
So who will get to appoint a Senator, presuming Blago doesn't try to do it from his cell?

I've bought one copy for my 9 yr old nephew. I don't think it'll be beyond him. But what about a freakishly smart 12 yr old?
That press conference surprised me. I guess I was expecting a dry list of charges from the FBI instead of Patrick Fitzgerald talking about Lincoln rolling over in his grave.
