Natasha Richardson is not expected to survive.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Oh, man. Fingers crossed that it's somehow not true.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, that's so sad.

Because books.
It really is sad about Natasha Richardson. Wow. I saw a picture of Patrick Swayze on E! last night, too, and it was so awful -- totally gaunt.
I want to know who voted against the serial comma. I'm taking names, people.

Our wings are not tired.
I just read a story on Richardson and it's so sad and also so weird. Apparently she was walking and talking after a fall, and then started having really bad headaches an hour later in the hotel. She was taking beginner's lessons when she fell. Completely awful. This isn't like one of those situations where someone was being stupid and taking risks (hello, getting drunk and skiing into a tree). The report said she wasn't wearing a helmut, though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Then I read that kids these days, when they do their "texting", would "text" SciFi as SyFy.
If this story is true I will eat a DRD. It smells like marketing hype to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, how terrible for the whole family. Not that she was skiing in Montreal. She was probably in Mont Tremblant.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
She was, ita.
