Word on the house is that in 3-4 days the money should be cleared and then it is just title search and paperwork preparation for the closing. Oh and the seller has to have the work done and let us inspect again. Closing should proceed on the 30th.
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

My Costco has pneumatic tubes between the cash and the office.
My town had a old timey dept store that has a tube system like Sophia's mom worked at. I loved it. Unfortunately it closed in the 90s.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Hec, are you watching Caprica?
No. Does it have Zeppelins?
You know the movie line that most often comes to me with various fannish obsessions is from the salesman in Joe vs. the Volcano who has a zealot's glee in pushing the high end traveling trunks: "Luggage is the central pre-occuption of my life."

Yes! There was this one huge Zeppelin with big guns, and fighters it could launch. But it only exists in a virtual world.
(The Zeppelin had nothing to do with any plot point.)

You can see the Zeppelin for a second or two, at about 42 seconds into this: [link]

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I believe we've see far-off zeppelin-like objects in the real Caprican world, too.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Just watched a really fabulous thing on the Sundance channel about the business end of the red carpet. It started out all gauzy and E! like and then they totally drilled down into how much of a big business it is. Like how some actresses are paid a quarter of a million dollars to wear a dress at the Oscars. And how Scarlett Johannsen's stardom was created by contracts with fashion houses, which at the same time is maintaining Sharon Stone, who doesn't actually act. And how Nicole Kidman made $12m for a commercial for Chanel! It's this whole completely cynical thing to sell perfume, it's amazing. Anyway, I recommend it, it's called "The Red Carpet Issue."
