That's fascinating, aurelia.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I hadn't really thought about changing things (a little) in plays until very recently. Of course my first job out of college was at a theatre where the artistic director took three or four scripts of the play, and the book (this was theatre for children), literally cutted and pasted them into a script which we copied, and said that meant she wrote the play, and so we didn't have to pay royalties!
So I felt like changing the Polack joke in Grease was not so big of a deal. Or changing the word "rubbers" to "Galoshes" in an Our Town production that was presented to Middle Schoolers by High Schoolers.

Also, I think this might be a Rochester accent thing, but I just hear, over the loudspeaker, to ignore the three warning tones for the Med Center antics. But the were saying Med Center Annex. Both pronounced ann-ix.

I take it as a given that ann is pronounced "eehhann"! :)
ETA: For some reason the man on the loudspeaker most days has a fairly pronounced accent- you should hear him call a code team to the trauma bay! TRAAAHHHH-ma bay, I mean.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Happy Mardi Gras, y'all. Raise your hands if you'd rather be in New Orleans today.

Also, go get yourself some paczki.

I never saw Paczki in Rochester until a couple of years ago, but maybe I just didn't notice until we started talking about them here. I had one this weekend, but I unfortunately got the kind with white cream inside, and I don't really like white cream. The outtards were good, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We just had Memorial, Part 2, for my coworker who died over the weekend. So, you know, that's a way to start the day.

::raises hand:: Although I am looking forward to my plan of happy hour at the place with $1 oysters and chocolate-filled beignets.
Oof, Jesse. That is tough.
