Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Crap. RIP Patrick McGoohan.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

today was BK Wed and for that I am happy.

I am navigating through piles of paper on my desk. Such a mess of invoices and notes. I hope to get at least 25 things off my desk today, so far I have only removed things temporarily (off for approvals).

I'm listening to Astronomy Cast. Dr. Pamela Gay may have the best voice in podcasting.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Did you know that the entire series of The Prisoner is up at the AMC website? I'll have to watch those this weekend, I think.

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

He lived a good long time and left a mark on the industry to be proud of.

Never got The Prisoner, myself.

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

Ugh. I finally just got a chance to pause after running around and doing lots of stuff all morning, and it turns out I don't feel very well, and I think I've got a fever.
