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.

All kinds of ~ma for your mom, Frank.
Great news, Vortex. Pretty good company!

That strikes me as evil--causing huge amounts of emotional distress to church members just to increase the church's membership.
Hey Stephanie (and others): I think you'll be interested in tonight's Frontline episode on immigration detention: [link]
it's hard to reconcile those people (and the JZ's of the world) with what the broader institution really is.
I can't talk about it with JZ anymore because I get all rantypants.
I do spend a fair amount of time telling her to just "Schism already!" and split off a Super Liberal We Didn't Think Jesus Was Joshing When He Said Take Care of the Poor Plus We Love Teh Gays and Wimmins New Catholic Church.
Congrats Vortex!
Congratulations Vortex! That's fantastic news. Good news on the funded move also.
Frank, health~ma to your mom.
I'm excited for you Vortex! What an exciting change.
Though I know the DCistas will miss you muchly.
