Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Okay, they are the thumbnails of the pics I linked to. Balked at reposting verbatim, too lazy to rephrase.
Also, I have a migraine that goes all the way down to my quads right now. It's a joy.

Thanks! I just started handling the newsletter in June, and we just switched to the new layout, so I still feel like I'm learning how to put it all together, but I enjoy doing it -- it keeps me more involved in the kids' side of things, which I like.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Hil, I remember that (but it was local news at the time for me).
ita ! the thumbnails came up - you're insanely glamorous in those! I can understand loving that silvery (looks blue-silver to me) dress. And is that your fancy evening purse?

Ann, that's a ferret.
Hil, I didn't remember ever being aware of a Deaf President Now protest. However, after Googling, it seems vaguely familiar, but I'm not sure whether I knew of it at the time or only later. (It happened about 6 months before I moved to DC.)

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

Ha, this is awesome: Trinity 'expels' barbarian teacher
Trinity College Dublin has said it is taking seriously an incident in which a profile page, complete with image, was inserted on its website for a fake staff member named ‘Dr Conan T. Barbarian’.
[...]
The profile went on to say Dr Barbarian completed his PhD, entitled ‘To Hear The Lamentation of Their Women: Constructions of Masculinity in Contemporary Zamoran Literature’ at UCD and was appointed to the School of English in 2006, “after sucessfully decapitating his predecessor during a bloody battle which will long be remembered in legend and song”.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)
I've never heard of either thing. But I feel like I would have known about it were I a little older.
