Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ok, it's in my Netflix queue. I should get to it in the next 10 years or so. Actually, I imagine my rate of progress through my Netflix queue will increase once I finish watching All the Kurosawa, but it will still be a while...

ETA: Xanadu I saw several times in the theater, although probably not since.

That which does not kill you should RUN

Watch the movie! Hotass Christopher Plummer!

SERIOUSLY.

Because books.

Thank you, Epic. ;-)

I hate that I still love this song. (Sixteen Going on Seventeen.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I knew I was a woman when I realized how hot Christopher Plummer was.

You can all do like I used to have to when I was a kid, and watch until the kids go to bed.

Me too! I'm still surprised when that's not the end.

Interval training, I am not good at it.

Indeed: this makes it happen much more effectively than just knowing I should do it. But you don't have to do it all the time: you can turn off the zombie chases for any given mission.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Man, it's terrible, isn't it? I used to sing that song and jump around gazebos.

It's kinda sobering when you realize that I was, in point of fact, sixteen going on seventeen when I met the SO, with all that sort of conditioning still bouncing around in my brain.

Wow, she really can't act.

Right? And I still know all the words, I just want to throw up in my mouth a little as I'm singing them.

"How Lovely to Be a Woman" from Bye Bye Birdie is a little better, but not much.

Hey, here's a song where belting is actually appropriate!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I will say that it's not really fair to force anyone who's not Julie Andrews to pull off "The Lonely Goatherd."

I suspect that Carrie Underwood actually has a lovely high voice, but she's always belting so much that you never get a chance to hear it.
