I wonder if any of the other threads will ever turn over. I guess Bitches will, some day.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Because books.
meara, from the old thread, the signs on all of the cases actually read, "Short-Haired Hamster, Male" and "Dwarf Hamster, Male," or whatever. Rats, guinea pigs, gerbils, every sign said male.
New thread! It's a momentous occasion now.

I was gonna say Kat, I pay my helper $10/hr when I am here, all sitters get $12/hr.
I used to often clean when I would babysit, I would get bored and people were paying me, so you know.

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

You would have been my dream sitter!
I had another dentist appointment today. Why is getting a cavity filled significantly less painful and faster than getting my teeth cleaned?
Anybody read any Colson Whitehead? I just bought Sag Harbor, which has gotten good press.

From Whitehead's website:
The New Yorker published an excerpt their 2008 Winter Fiction Issue. I did a brief Q & A with the fiction editor of the magazine. It answers this important question:
Q: How is Benji different from you?
A: I tend not to act or feel or talk in a way that would add anything worthwhile to an extended work of fiction. I tend not to do things that lend themselves to dramatic unity, aesthetic harmony, and narrative discharge. My leitmotifs are crappy. I need an editor or someone of artistic bent to shape my useless existence into something that would interest other people. Also, I am a real person.
I totally need an editor to shape my existence!

“Not dead yet!”
Okay, top twenty. Woot!
Just watched first ep of Torchwood: Children of Earth. Why didn't anyone tell me how cute the doctor was? Is it because he didn't last the episode?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Because you didn't ask, Barb. Also, because of what you said.
