Two numbers down, two voicemails left. I have one more emergency number but she babysat for us last night for six hours and I hate to have to ask her again tonight.
Saffron: You're a good man. Mal: You clearly haven't been talking to anyone else on this boat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Can we talk about the worst news story of the day? The guy who kidnapped an 11-year-old and held her for 18 years, while she had two of his children??? And his wife was there, too?!?! [link]

I had to stop reading, Jesse. It was making me gag this morning. I'm glad they found her and I hope that guy goes to prison for the rest of his life. I also hope that she and her daughters can pull some semblance of a life out of this shitty situation.

“Not dead yet!”
What made me gag was his assertion that after all the "facts" are out, he's going to be hailed and the story will be seen as "heartwarming."
Fucktard.

He's fucking crazy. But there still needs to be some punishment there. His wife should have said something. I feel badly for the neighbors who suspected there were children living in tents in the back yard but never said anything. I'm sure they feel like shit now.
Babysitting crisis averted. Now I can go tidy up the house.

Oh, I want punishment. Lots and lots of punishment. Starting with cutting his balls off.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If by "heartwarming" he means his heart will be carved out and roasted over an open fire while the rest of his body is torn apart by wild dogs, I'm all for it.

This part is completely random:
In a posting on a blog associated with the God’s Desire church, Mr. Garrido told of his ability to control sound.
"I Phillip Garrido have clearly demonstrated the ability to control sound with my mind and have developed a device for others to witness this phenomena," he wrote. "I have produced a set of voices by effectively controlling the sound to pronounce words through my own mental powers."

The guy is clearly bonkers. But what about the wife?? And the neighbors?? And the people who were supposed to be checking in on him for his parole?@??!

Cashmere! It is your own darn fault that those two thoughts ran together in my brain! Because if there were a couple of kids living in the tents next door that WOULD avert your babysitting crisis...
