I wish mac was a reader, but I know pushing him will not make it so.
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
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.
Looks like Squeaky Fromme's being released.
I'd forgotten that Sarah Jane Moore was released last year.
Now I've got songs from Assassins going through my mind.
I've got this really great gun
No, it's really great!
Wait!
Anyway, it's just a .38
But, it's a gun!
You can make a state
-ment (wrong!) with a gun
Even if you fail
It tells them who you are
Where you stand
This one was on sale!
It--no, not the shoe
Well, actually, the shoe was, too
She said it never occurred to her that she could wind up in prison. Asked whether she had any regrets, Fromme said, "No. No, I don't. I feel it was fate." However, she said she thought that her incarceration was "unnecessary" and that she couldn't see herself repeating her offense.
Well OK then.
Oh, and the first photographic evidence of Ryan smiles:
Supercutie!
Happy Scrappy day!
Happy birthday, Emaryn!
I can't believe Emaryn is 10! She's double digits for now until the foreseeable future! that's huge!

It sounds like Twitter, Facebook and LJ are under a DDOS attack: [link]
Happy Scrappy Birthday!!!
what is DDOS? I read Denial of service - what does that mean?
I can't twitter or fb from work so no matter to me.
what is DDOS?
Distributed Denial of Service. When they use many computers (sometimes thousands).
eta: Probably the first example of a DOS attack was the Ping of Death - where a computer would ping a site thousands of times a second, causing the site to crash. In general, a DOS attack just floods a server with garbage, rendering it unable to function normally. A DDOS is much harder to defend against - a single attacking computer can be blocked, but thousands of attacking computers is much more difficult to defend against.
