The other thing about Stand By Me is I saw something with adult Jerry O'Connell that had a kid actor playing his character as a kid, and it was just funny, because of course we all know exactly what he looked like as a kid, and who would have guessed he would grow up into a hunk?
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't believe Jerry didn't recognise Wil. Hello!

Yeah, Wil looks the same. I'm willing to bet he wasn't looking to recognize anyone, if that makes any sense.

My sister just sent me an email asking me to sort a spreadsheet for her. Numerical descending order on one column. Nothing flashy.
I don't get it.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
It's like that old expression: "Give a sister a sorted spreadsheet and she'll be grateful. Give a sister instructions on how to sort a spreadsheet and you'll spend more time writing out the instructions and she won't nearly be as grateful."

Maybe she's laughing at the stuff she can make you do? Oh, right - that would be *my* sisters.
Nanny taxes, oi. Not that our nanny doesn't earn every penny, but it's a shock to the checking account.

Precisely that, Theo. How do you get a PhD in Anthropology with all the accompanying stats work that I know she's done and not know how to sort a spreadsheet?
If she asks me how to connect her iPod to her wireless network, or how to install apps on it, I won't be surprised. That's new to her. But she's been using Excel almost as long as I have. But for what?

Theo, hilarious.

So I think Oz may have eaten a small bit of ribbon. I gave him some ice cream, thinking his lactose intolerant self would throw the ice cream and ribbon back up. Is he throwing up? NO. He squawking for more ice cream.

Complete hatchet job of Mahatma Gandhi. I kinda wish I hadn't read it.
