Is it wrong to imagine a world history in which people might have ridden dinosaurs?

I think "imagine" is the key word there, Gud.

You are asking this of a group that writes fanfic? The creation museum is Biblical fanfic.

I feel dirty now.

Why feel dirty for denying propaganda material to people who lie about science?

Catching up: congrats, Andi and Daniel! Happy birthday, Issac! Welcome, baby Rose!

ION, you folks will help keep my ego in check, right? Someone out in Tumblr land made a meme blog about GCS. Like a "fuck yeah!" one, but called "Goodness, Yes! Gothic Charm School".

My blushing can be seen from SPACE.

It was what I learned between here and Jacques Pepin, just salt & thyme in the egg itself and cheese in the fold of the omelette (which I know he wouldn't do, but I like cheese). It was totally simple, just the technique that I've finally got down. The biggest hint was to leave it the fuck alone right at the start, and then get the egg cooking evenly with a fork. I made an almost flawless flip and fold today, and it was moist and nicely cooked.

I think you need some sleep if you can get it, Liese. hugs.

I got some, but I need more. I have a couple of choices for today and this weekend, two of which involve making phone calls, and I suspect both of those are going to yield to inertia. I would make the one call for what I think I should be doing tonight (helping out with a church service down in the affected area) but I don't have the number of the guy. I have lots of ways to get that number, but don't feel motivated, partly because I don't actually want to go. I think I would be helpful, but I would be late and it would make for a very very long day, then driving up the hill in the storm at night.

Okay, now that I put it like that, in combination with being up last night, I'm not going to try. It probably will be an important day with helping people, but I can't do it. I won't be of any help if I wreck the Pilot coming back up the mountain at night. I'm not obligated to go, they don't even know I was considering it. I can start next week if I want.

"Goodness, Yes! Gothic Charm School".

That is BRILLIANT.

Why feel dirty for denying propaganda material to people who lie about science?

Because I had to be so polite about it. And for about ten minutes there was a chance they might actually be able to renew the license.

(Fortunately the answer I had to give them is no, that material is restricted because there's a feature film in the works. NO DINOS FOR YOU.)

We they planning on Lucasing in cave people, perchance?

Happy Birthday, Isaac and welcome, Baby Rose!!!

Good call, Liese. Way to work out what you need to do. You can't plug a micro USB into a cereal port. Get some more sleep.

That tumblr is awesome, Jilli! Goodness, yes!

Yay, baby!
