Yeah, it was Face/Off. Gina Gershon played the kids mother.

That sounds an awful lot like Face/Off to me, but I don't remember that song being part of that scene. IMDB informs me that "Over the Rainbow" was indeed in that movie... but it was the Olivia Newton-John version. Huh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It was Somewhere Over The Rainbow, but it wasn't Iz, and it was Face/Off but it was a girl.
And there were headphones.
Looking at the credits for the Iz version I can't actually tell where I first heard it--they blur into each other.
And, going to that well, IMDB says Phil's In The Air has 22 uses: [link] Must be more.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Was meh on most of the Superbowl ads.(I didn't like the Oreo ad, as all I could think was "Oh, no, not the books!) Kinda amused by the Psy Pistachio ad, despite myself.

Does anyone here frequent Racialicious? I'm wondering if they are known to be slow comment approvers since I know I'm not the only person who's replied to their I'm J'can and I don't like it post. I'm curious to see everyone else's reaction, but not curious enough that I'll remember to go tomorrow.

Because books.
Good god, this working thing really interferes with posting. Who do I talk to about that? I miss you people! I barely have time to lurk.

We miss you too! But working is good! Keep working. We'll still be here when you get time.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I haven't posted a comment there in a while, but usually they let comments build up for a few hours and then approve a bunch at once.

One of the biggest new job adjustments is always "How much intereweb, and who's looking?"
The answer today is "ita ! is looking." Every screen I can see--people are surfing the least work-related bullshit I can see. I think one co-worker has moved the headphones from the music on his phone to the video on his laptop.
Shit! I forgot to give the cannibal back his flash drive.
Google led me to the LA Times website for something totally unrelated, and I clicked on this article: [link] which is apparently guaranteed to get you at least pronoun confused, but bless them for not just editing and waving their hands--they took the "word" heshe out of a story titled Slaying casts light on Hollywood's transgender prostitutes. Huh. Wonder how that got there? Typographical error, you say?
