I never pictured him as black, but now that I think about it I can understand why some people do. Remember that part in TIW, when Troy regains consciousness in Doriendor Corishev and those Foul's Army guys attack him? One of them asks mockingly, "Is it an ur-vile?" because of Troy's eyeles...

Can't it just be a nod to Covenant? It's not like the words were in any way integral to the story, he could've raved anything they wanted. People pay homage like that all the time, the credits for a show like Spaced , South Park or Family Guy would go on forever if they had to credit them all. Homa...

Hi all! Nice to see your shining faces. I'm-a head over to Gen Sci Fi and see what's up re: this Words of Power question....

I feel pretty boggled. I was just watching the latest ep of Torchwood , and part of the plot was the incantation: Melenkurion abatha! Duroc minas... etc. And I'm all, buh? No, really, did they just say that? And they said it over and over again. Was this a deliberate tribute to SRD? I thought, well,...

I miss you guys. *waves*

That? Looks like a haunted swing to me.

What, what miracle drug? They hand out Vicodin for Nicotine cessation now?! Chantix is having great results for some, but I have a lot of trouble with prescription drugs and this one has some scary side effects. Bizarre hallucination-type dreams and even some possible waking psychosis. I'm frankly ...

I too am trying to quit nicotine. I have a $300 Rx in my pocket for that miracle drug, but I'm afraid to take it. I have refractory reactions to even the most innocent meds and this one has already killed a celeb. I quit smoking before by tapering so that's what I'm trying to do now. I have lots to ...

If I become a zombie, do I get to meet Simon Pegg? Because he's the dreamiest.

*lovesick zombie emoticon*

Oh Jenn. *internet hug* If this is what I think it is... my intuition says it's an internal issue, and not really affected by what others do or don't do. You know, wise people say that you can't change someone like that; you can only be the best version of you. And I think you're very cool. I feel l...

Oh, no worries, I was just funnin'.

My early stuff makes me cringe. But I'm over it.

Fine, I can take it. But if you do, the terrorists win.

Forgive me for the boasting, but... wohoo! img126.imageshack.us/img126/7060/freericetf3.jpg And since I'm not a native speaker, that's all due to my knowledge of latin, my remembrances of greek, and Donaldson's vocabulary! :P Dayum. I never got near 50. You are officially a smart person in my book....

Nice stuff! So, how much would you pay me to not scan Ms. Victory #1 and post it? :biggrin: Nuffink! Because the inker murdered it. I bear no responsibilty for that woofer -- the pencils were actually more or less okay. Ad besides that, the bums never paid me a cent. I will ask nicely, though. Don'...

That's awful. You're certainly bearing up with more starch than I could summon. If somebody got away with my electricals I'd be in hysterics.

I went riding after all. Gorgeous weather today, and the horse place is so lovely it's Andelainian. Fun! Happy-making!

Gotta prep for dinner at Julie's tonight. We're finally gonna eat udon and watch Tampopo , a favorite of mine. Also on the menu are tempura, teriyaki fish and tofu, spicy tuna, hijiki salad and a selection of sakis. Sunday at the Great American Music Hall I'll be dancin' my tail off to Southern Cul...

(picture won't work...Cocteau Twins - Blue Bell Knoll) tracks - blue bell knoll I'm sure others will occur to me later....! Thanks! I'll give all of those a spin over at itunes. If you have a video iPod, you should download this and have it on there as well. blog.8r4d.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/05...

The Creator Himself? Doesn't he have a dog in this fight?

I got to 48 yesterday before RL intruded. Tonight I was down to 38.

Ah well, rice and all that. As long as the sponsors are chucking that rice where it needs to go, I can live with the humiliation.
