That's a fab essay, Burrell, I'm not surprised npr picked it up. Makes them look good.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Thanks everyone. I guess it hasn't hit me so far, I've not broken down or even teared up today.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm so sorry, Matt.

A beautiful massive march is again taking place in my city.
But people are getting mad about the curfew and based solely off the BPD Twitter feed, BPD leadership is becoming increasingly unhinged. They're trying to make media rules. And the FOP is making increasingly inflammatory statements (veiled threats to the SAO's husband, etc. [link]
And murders in the rest of the city keep churning, and do you really think witnesses will come forward in this climate of mistrust?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Tuesday afternoon, they gave me a new computer, one that was supposed to be able to handle my work flow.
This afternoon, I had nothing much to do, so I had outlook open, plua one Firefox window with a court web site, and another window with facebook on one tab and here on a second tab, and I clicked on Sarameg's Baltimore sun link.
complete system crash.

Oops?
Shit goes down tonight, it's people damn over this curfew. I am too, but I have wedding supplies in my house.
17 murders since the Natl Guard called in. Yeah, they're protecting all the tourist shit.

At least it mostly worked for 3 days?

I am tired, so I am focusing on a more frivolous topic; for my 43rd birthday in August, I want to get my 5th tattoo. My nickname is "Captain" among my good friends, and I want to get it either on myleft wrist -- I have the Latin "eligere" -- to choose, to decide-- on the right, or on my back between my two shoulderblad tats.
I was thinking the Buffy font, but I don't know -- I don't think it looks right. [link]
Any font suggestions? I've got time to play around with it, but I like to mull a tat over for a good while before I go for it.
