Is Big Bird kosher?

You tell me!

I suspect he'd be too cute for anyone to eat.

Oh Nilly! You look wonderful. You are so beautiful.

ION, 'cos I'm skimming and catching up: a spider named after David Bowie. I DO NOT APPROVE.

Nilly, wonderful to see that.

I'm doing work. Something is wrong with that.

But then I'm going back to my book. Got my long walk in. Amazing how I can end up totally dripping in sweat when it is overcast and mid-70s.

Loki is asleep on his back on the floor in front of me, tail curled over his belly. Adorkable.

OK, he moved, but [link]

Ok, so I'm watching Season 1 of Grey's. This used to be a really good show.

While I do some ad-hoc testing (of a moderately interesting game), I'm also watching Jeremy Brett solve "The Hound of the Baskervilles".

When I grow up, if I don't turn into Malcolm Macdowell, I will insist on being Brett's Holmes.

SH, you might appreciate/love this. A friend of mine, this weekend at Dragon Con, Tweeting a message while just beyond her, looking oh, so cool, none other than Mr. Malcolm McDowell.

I have no idea what would happen were I to cross paths with him.

Fanboy? I hope not - I made enough of a fool of myself SINGING to Mira Furlan.

Tacklesnog him? I'm afraid he'd morph into Little Alex and I would end up woven into a macrame basket of my own entrails.

I think I'd have to cooly nod at him, as if passing my own future self from a Star Trek episode, and just keep walking on - then perhaps collapse into a puddle of gleeful goo.

Anyone else having trouble with Facebook? I've logged in a few times today, and I've gotten this message often

Facebook has been erratic for me today. I cleared my cache and I STILL get a five-hour-old home page headed up by a chick from High School who's updates I've blocked about half the time when I hit refresh.
