Have you looked at Albrecht Durer? He did a lot of woodcuts with magnificent line work.
Oh, nice call. Thank you.
Well, you'd better not be thinking what I think you're thinking, because my answer is the same as always — no threesomes unless it's boy-boy-girl. Or Charlize Theron.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Time to drag out the Giant Suitcase of Doooom and pack for our trip. We fly to London tomorrow.

Oh, dang, juliebird, hope it's just a snafu and easily fixed.
Does anyone here work somewhere with no-frat? Like, across the entire company, not just within the reporting structure?
If I have I was unaware of it. Though it hasn't generally been something I've been concerned about, either.

Funeral situation. mr. flea's colleague died last week and they are having a memorial this Saturday, at a Waldorf School farm, a potluck with bonfire, children invited. mr. flea worked with S for the past 3 years, and knew him 20 years ago in grad school, and was better friends with S's wife D. I met D 20 years ago but probably wouldn't recognize her today; I never met S. We've lived in the same city these 3 years and never met socially. mr. flea wants me to get off work so we can go with the children to the funeral, which would also mean them missing a social event we had RSVPed to. If we knew the deceased or the family - if it was someone in our school community for example - I would in an instant, but as it is I am reluctant. Am I wrong? Should we go? (I am frankly doubtful I can get off work.)

Here at work they're tickled when people discover each other, so long as no drama is involved.

Why is everyone so quiet today?
I'm trying to teach myself how to create and manage SVN repositories with TurtleSVN? Other than that, I got nothing.

Across the entire company? That's nuts. Early-days WotC couldn't even manage no-frat within reporting structures, but there's a reason I describe it as "high school with a paycheck".

Always Anti-fascist!
Yes, Theo, whenever people bag on Williams as an actor, that guest shot is something I always defend--he nailed it.(Of course, being Kay-heavy and ambiguous, that's one of my favorite H:LOTS anyway.) "I had the power, but forgot who I was."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
flea, it sounds like your DH wants to go, but it doesn't make sense for all of you to go, esp if it means the kids missing an event that would mean more to them.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I'm teaching myself how to do new tricks with JSON and JavaScript objects (and why they aren't the same thing).

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't know flea. That kind of sounds like mr. flea could go alone? Taking off work and missing a previously scheduled event is kind of a lot if you never met the dearly departed.
I think everywhere I've worked that had non-frat policies it was only within the reporting structure. Has not been an issue that mattered to me for a very long time, so I haven't necessarily paid attention, though.
I won a dutch oven at work! I should stew something.
