Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm on team Accidentally Clicks When Tap To Click Is Turned On.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm not sure what the exact explanation was. In the books, I felt like him getting away was both more difficult and more of a team effort. In the movies he just felt unstoppable to me.

Oh! Paget Brewster will be guesting on L&O:SVU next season. Which made me realise I didn't think there was anyone left on that show.

Didn't she end up teaching the sign language to a deaf boy or man?

I'm fairly certain she also invented Braille and opened the first school for the blind, complete with seeing-eye wolves that she domesticated herself.

I'm trying to figure out tap to click. You mean where the trackpad is the button as well? I have that on my work laptop, and since I click with my thumb, but scroll with fingers, I don't have issues. I do have the the double/triple/etc pat-the-pad-does-stuff off.

Swim swum. Storm, while noisy, kinda fell apart over the city.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Tap to click on a MacBook means you aren't using the mechanics of the trackpad to register a click (well, you can still do that), but that just placing your finger lightly on it counts as clicking too. If you touch and leave your finger there it's not a click--you have to touch and release.

Suffice it to say, I am not happy with the new (at least new to me) direction of the Bourne movies. I mean is this mitochlorins for the Bourne Identity? Not happy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I might actually have to buy boxes, for the first time in my life. My neigborhood is the worst! All the stores are like, "They go right in the compactor" or some shit.

That, I have turned off.

I did get two today, and another possible lead -- the Duck Tour people had thrown out all of theirs after they got soaked, but if I can get a couple from them every day, I might be OK. Also I can take some from work, but it's a PITA to get them home.

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

Unless they're saying Bourne was an experiment too...which is a little too much for me.

Well, there's your tagline. "The best spies are made, not Bourne."
