GYMSLIP
What does "gymslip" mean? Is that where she lives?
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

It strikes me as the sort of 'confession' that a crazy person who wants attention makes, instead of an actual confession to actual crimes. I'll put up even money that there are few unexplained stabbings in the area she's claiming.

Some sociologic investigators distinguish between institutional racism and structural racism. The former focus upon the norms and practices within an institution, the latter focus upon the interactions among institutions, interactions that produce racialized outcomes against non-white people. An important feature of structural racism (structured racialization) is that it cannot be reduced to individual prejudice or to the single function of an institution. Like-wise, it is important to note that once a structure is emplaced, its consequences likely will affect the entire population — not just the racially discriminated people.

Will someone please talk me out of buying the dvd set of Planet Earth? It's really discounted over at Amazon right now (only $36!), but I have it burned on disc off of the HD channel, so I don't reallllly need it.

Does it have $36 of stuff you don't already have on your homemade discs?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Kathy, at some point in your life, you're going to buy a BluRay player, and then you'll have to buy it all over again.

Such a good point, Tom! Right--no more buying dvds that I'll be replacing on BluRay eventually anyway. I probably will end up getting that player when LotR gets its inevitable release on BluRay.
