Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

“Not dead yet!”

Luke Perry as a fundie whackjob is truly terrifying.

Because books.

Tresabel sounds like someone who needs a book written about her. And wow, definitely an excellent name.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The cousin who was killed by a bus? I'd promised him a copy of Godel, Escher, Bach and never given him one. I know how stupid that is, but he was the only non-immediate relative one party weekend that didn't give me grief for reading it. And he'd have liked it, dammit.

I know what Barb is watching. I'm TiVoing it myself.

If'n ya wanna... Grandpa wrote up a 50-100 page autobio maybe 50 years ago. Beyond that, it's all children memory. And hell, my eldest aunt is over 70. Not possible!

In this age of internet, and most of 'em are on it, I should prompt them to send memories.

Which I'm now gonna do.

I can't figure out what Barb is watching, actually.

Sara is asleep, Ben has friends sleeping over and they're watching Dawn of the Dead downstairs, in the dark, I have a piece of cake and a Tudors disc to put in, and Stephen just made me a fresh pot of tea. Life is good at the moment.

Criminal Minds repeat on A&E. Luke Perry as a Jim Jones type.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Luke Perry as a fundie whackjob is truly terrifying.

Yeah he is. I think this is one of my favorite eps.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

He really was. Plus, how kick ass was Prentiss?

Totally. And Reid was even more brilliant than usual.
