I think Americans have every reason to be concerned about health care reform when it has been suggested that some of the costs will be paid for by freeding the elderly to velociraptors on pay-per-view TV.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So I was pushy and I did call the recruiter that was supposed to call me yesterday, and he called me back and is submitting me for a position. Damn, I hope this works out. It sounds interesting and pays in the range I want to be paid. I might not even have to move out of this apartment, although I really should.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We haven't had that yet? Sheesh.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
According to newspapers reporting on what an Australian newspaper reported, Caster Semenya is a hermaphrodite: [link] (I hope that's the right term, and not offensive. Some of the other articles started with something like, "Caster's a woman ... and a man!" but this one seemed relatively "just the facts.")

I'm sure hermaphrodite is not the right term, just because the first thing I think of never is.
I feel bad for Caster, because it seems the male organs were internal, so how was ze to know?

Baltimore City, why do you forsake my recycling??
I spent half the day in meetings. So I swam extra long. Fair trade, I think.

Velociraptors on a Zeppelin!
In which, I assume, velociraptors attack by leaping from the Zeppelin.
This reminds me of the Christmas cards [link] and children's plates from around 1900 featuring Santa using a Zeppelin rather than those old-fashioned reindeer.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I just logged into LinkedIn, and it suggested three people I might know. All of whom I do, and two of whom are Plei and -t.
How does it KNOW?
Okay, Emily's in there too, and one of my friends from high school.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And I also just gave in and created a Facebook account.
HOW DOES IT KNOW? It's got suggestions for friends, family, old classmates, people currently in my choir...all I did was tell it my name!
