Did the woman appreciate the profit, or was she bummed that the stuff was gone?
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

I think she appreciated the money - I missed the first part, where they discussed her situation, but her daughter gave the impression they needed the money.
And the Kenos were very considerate of her feelings - kept assuring her that they wouldn't take anything out without her OK and, after an appraisal, asked if she wanted to sell. So it was less distressing than if her daughter had gone in and removed stuff behind her back.

Because I know you're all dying of curiosity about the saga of my email with The Damned (hush, let me have my delusions): the booking agent replied that she is not the person handling press for this tour, the drummer is, and gave me his email address. I will be emailing him tomorrow, as today is full of errands and running around and OH MY GOD I HAVE THE EMAIL ADDRESS FOR THE DRUMMER OF THE DAMNED.

Actually, it kinda sounds like my dating history in my early 20s. There was a reason that not a musician was one of the criteria my friends had for who I should date.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
As I was on my hunt for VMA spoilers, I tripped over some articles on Adam Yauch's cancer treatments. Tons of articles crediting his vegan diet and chinese medicine for his recovery.
None credited the surgeon who cut it out nor the doctor who blasted him with radiation for six weeks. Nope! It was all about the bok choy and wheat grass!
I sense an essay coming on...

Because books.
Have we all seen the video of two Cleverbots having a conversation?
I just watched it. "No I am a unicorn." Okay then! That was excellent, and slightly creepy.
