Seriously, though
Thank you for understanding my outrage. Even if I'd grabbed everything we had on hand, it still wouldn't have been enough (we print in house, as well as the folding).
You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I once worked for an executive who would not OK ordering copies of his brochure from a bureau. Then I printed and folded color copies laboriously by hand when the project became overdue and urgent. Idiot.

Timlies to all. I was invited today to guest lecture at a philosophy course on my independent scholarship research. I am stupidly excited to actually teach my subject matter.

but we don't have the audience to attract high profile attendees.
Maybe if you marketed it to women of a certain age with Alan Armitage beauty shots like the ones here [link]

SA, what was it? I am shamefaced to say I don't remember.

Very cool, SA!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Happy Birthday, -t!
Congratulations, ND!
ETA: Congratulations to Jess and to SA.

I'm not sure you would--this was independent post-MA work & I'm not sure I talked about it on here. I have been studying the increased individuation of voices of military personnel, particularly individuals who served in Iraq and Afghanistan over the last 12 years; and the effect of technology on making new voices and lived experiences accessible.
Basically, two hundred years ago, there was no individual soldier with a public voice; the names of infantryment weren't even recorded in the historical record. Today, a soldier can write a blog from a personal laptop in country, and take photos from a combat outpost. From an ethical standpoint it's a revolution.
I am so thrilled. And the prof was thrilled. We are collectively thrilled!

I was apparently such a freak that aliens abandoned me. In return, my little brother was bought as a K-Mart Blue Light Special. Our parents, unfortunately, have to take responsibility of our older brother.
