Another secondspin question: does the disk surface have to be absolutely pristine?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Wow, sometimes I'm dense. I've been wondering why all of Leonard Nimoy's tweets end in LLAP. I finally looked up LLAP. How did I not guess that?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh. OH. Duh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Heh.
Yay for good dentists. Mine offered me $50 if I write him a good review on Yelp, because there are some bad ones up there, but I haven't had a problem....

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
If I reviewed my dentist on Yelp, I'd need an editor and sanity check. Because I get all anxiety ridden and have my mouth topically numbed for the cleaning and have my iPod playing soothing music (Danger Days!) and then a pretty, pretty man fixed my problem with only minimal freaky noises and no pain.
Given that Dr. G already smoking hot, I am kinda duckling imprinted on him right now and I think my eyes are just throbbing hearts. Or that's the allergies talking.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You are braver than I. I can see no good way to combine sharp implements in my mouth with the degree of bouncing around that is reliably prompted by "Planetary (GO!)".

re: names of Mariah Carey's kids.
I read somewhere that Monroe is for Marilyn Monroe and Moroccan is for some architectural detail where Nick proposed to her.

I honestly skipped Planetary. Cause it's all bouncy and you have to bounce and that'd be ... bad.
But Sing is amazing when you are quelling fear. I went back to Sing for the bits that included grinding and polishing . Sing made me strong. Or made me not cry. Which translates to strong enough today.
Dr. Death Defying is also pretty soothing.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Jilli, if it's not a ginormous PITA you may want to look at eBay for selling rare books. I've sold about a dozen rare books on there, and I got nearly as much for each individual book as I did for an entire box of similar rare books that I'd sold to a local bookstore about a year earlier.
It took ages - I photographed the hell out of every one, including the dents and warts, and researched fair market value and checked Amazon and ABEbooks.com and blah blah blah, probably 2-3 hours' work for each title - but the results were much, much better.
