This CNN story about Quine was listed as one of their top stories (front page, not entertainment section), which strikes me as bizarre.
Well, he was the nephew of Willard Van Orman Quine. Maybe someone at cnn.com is hella into set theory.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Interesting Reagan-iana show on FMU right now. Kinda fun, kinda horribly depressing.

As always the Doc has her finger on the pulse of the nation. To paraphrase the King of All Media, "What does America want? Lesbians, lesbians, set theory and lesbians!" (Appears to be a natural affinity there.) Hard to believe she's not running a network.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just googled myself and came up with not one, but two websites for chick folksingers with variants (Katie and Katherine) on my name. Suddenly I feel like I'm doing something wrong.

Or maybe you just need a new name. How about Tigerina McSlappy!

Sorry. Don't get it.
