Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Perkins, I have a graphics thing to do for you, don't I? I will definitely do that this morning.

No rush--whenever you have time is awesome.

Today I think I will wear my dragon tights and my short stompy boots with the denim skirt. If I were a little more relaxed I'd wear my Alice Cooper long-sleeved T, but no. Other people wear T-shirts, but I'd feel weird.

I am wearing a shirt I got during last weekend's foray into my closet, and my cute new shoes. [link]

Which I just realized are on sale for less than I paid for them. I have to go return another pair--I think I will see if I can get the sale price on them.

Er. No.

I only meant in the sense of having internal disagreement on the definition.

Because books.

Oooh, those are cute shoes, Perkins.

I keep looking for the perfect pair of wedge sandals in a fun color, but the only ones I found that I really like were over $100. Which, for sandals, seems way pricey to me.

I like shoes. I don't like to actually spend money on them, though.

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

I dunno - I think there's only a few common definitions of atheism, but lots more of Libertarianism.

Let's see - for atheism:

  • There is no God
  • There's probably no God
  • There may or may not be a God (this is more agnosticism, but whatev)
  • An atheist just lacks belief in a God, but this lack of belief says nothing about the possibility there is a God

What am I missing?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think the first two are the only ones that atheists themselves would use.

“Not dead yet!”

Have you looked on ModCloth, Amy? They have some cute, cute shoes and a lot of them are on the cheap.

That alone can create a forum thread that will never end until 500 million years from now when the heating sun has resulted a depletion of carbon dioxide (ironic isn't it?) that will result in the extinction of all large land animals. Even then it may be continued by sentient robots.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Does it help to know that if I trusted people to behave I would fall under the liberal libertarian end of the spectrum. But , for example, I really don't trust that the people up stream will keep pollutants out of the water . However when they made a law agains car jacking, I was appalled. Because it was already Grand theft auto and kidnapping ( plus there were other charges that could have been involved - including various gun crimes. I felt in this instance that the government was getting it the way of dealing with crime.

From what I can see now, most of the libertarians now fall on the conservative side of the spectrum -- which means no business regulations - ( or less) but they might stick there nose into other areas

I would actually go with 4.
