And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ION, I am just totally man-crushing on Andrew Sullivan for his anti-torture posts.

From The Cocoon

James Taranto who fully backed a president who claimed the right to suspend the First and Fourth Amendments, habeas corpus, the Geneva Conventions and domestic law against torture, and who seized an American citizen without charges on American soil and tortured him, now offers his view as to the small possibility of prosecuting the perpetrators of war crimes. Drum roll, please:

What Obama is offhandedly contemplating, then, amounts to a step toward authoritarian government.

No, you couldn't make this up.

Just one of many excellent posts recently....

New people! New people with brains! Yummy brains!

It appears to be zombie Friday in my head. I should probably try to get to bed before midnight at some point in my life.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

So, is your friend still lurking?

I believe she said she wasn't. I think she's a member of other fandom communities. I may attempt to rectify this anomoly.

New people with brains! Yummy brains!

Nah. My brains are small and mediocre and all gristly with research ethics. That's chocolate brains you're craving there, that is.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Welcome, Seska! (The plan is that if we all press "Post" at the same time, it might destroy the planet. Or at least a small city....)
