Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Kat, can you take the quotes out of the link so we can see the pretty?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

but to say that Shakespeare was one gets into what he may really have been feeling/meant.

Well, I used an example of something that either is or is not true, but is still a theory that people are persuaded by to differing degrees. I didn't want to complicate things by using an example of something that is not falsifiable, like "is Hamlet Catholic?"

eta: I didn't really finish my thought before posting. Anyway, whatever example I use is irrelevant, I just want to get to the idea of a theory with evidence that a student should be discouraged from propounding. Even if the evidence may support a similar theory that the student would not be discouraged from analyzing.

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

Kat, you have some schmutz in your link. However, my sister REALLY needs to see that.

bon, I agree with your example. I wouldn't allow that in my class either. However, a persuasive Catholic Hamlet is fair game.

oops. sorry. going to get it. Stupid fingers with their extra =.

However, my sister REALLY needs to see that.

I am looking forward to it cause Heath Ledger. But will I see it in the theater? Dunno.

I think the bulk of the problem starts with bosses who don't check their own voicemail, but maybe that's just me.

true, but I happen to know this guy, and he does. of course, he's new in this particular position, and I can believe that the guy before him wouldn't/couldn't check his voicemail.

Oh, yeah, that poster says, "By the way, there are some girls in this, too, but only because we have to have them."

that poster says, "By the way, there are some girls in this, too, but only because we have to have them."

It also says "Heath, baby, nice ass." and "Aw, shucks. Thanks. Yours isn't bad either."

I want to see it either way, but if I hear reviews that make it sound like Ang didn't totally ungay it, I'll be in the theatre for sure.

Well, at the very least, whoever did the posters seemed to have gotten the gist of the hot boy-on-boy action.

Ann, that's a ferret.

That poster was a nice ending to an otherwise lousy day (overcast, rainy, cite checking).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is that movie ever coming out? This is the problem with following entertainment news -- I started thinking about that movie at least when they filmed it, if not when they cast it. It's been SO LONG.

It's like my friend who told me when she was 6 weeks pregnant. Now I'm like, "You STILL haven't had it?!?!"
