"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oo, congrats Hec, what a coup!

It's exciting, though I'm having a sudden bout of, "Oh shit, people are going to be reading it now."

Hec, congrats! That's a big deal. A birthday present, perhaps?

I'll take it! It's great for the guys who run the site. It's been under capitalized and this should give them a bit of a boost.

ION, I think I'm getting an ear infection. Wah.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Congratulations, Hec!

HOW CUTE IS SHE???

Oh, so very cute. I love the one ear up, one ear down, head tilt.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Wait a minute. Time Magazine agrees that middlebrow is not the solution? That's kind of like Trotsky saying that communism is not the solution, or Cosmopolitan saying that orgasms aren't the solution.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You make a good point.

People keep asking me if I have jetleg, and I think the answer is no, I'm just really tired from only getting 4 hours of sleep Saturday night. I mean, I'm sleeping fine during normal East Coast hours, but I think I don't really know what jetlag is.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Life imitating Alias:

They had lived for more than a decade in American cities and suburbs from Seattle to New York, where they seemed to be ordinary couples working ordinary jobs, chatting to the neighbors about schools and apologizing for noisy teenagers.

But on Monday, federal prosecutors accused 11 people of being part of a Russian espionage ring, living under false names and deep cover in a patient scheme to penetrate what one coded message called American “policy making circles.”

An F.B.I. investigation that began at least seven years ago culminated with the arrest on Sunday of 10 people in Yonkers, Boston and northern Virginia. The documents detailed what the authorities called the “Illegals Program,” an ambitious, long-term effort by the S.V.R., the successor to the Soviet K.G.B., to plant Russian spies in the United States to gather information and recruit more agents.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Punishingly Intricate

Welcome home, sara! I did not shed in your house! Possibly I brought some cathair from my house though. There is a metric assload of it not attached to the cats.

Best friend is having fairly major surgery today and Bob has 4 appointments of varying degrees of seriousness over today and tomorrow in advance of his reversal surgery next week. All vibes for best possible outcomes are welcome.

And, after his next surgery, I am very much hoping for a looooong time passing before any more loved ones are in the hospital for anything other than followup appts, work, or giving birth. This year has been too much.
