We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Amazon recommended Queen Victoria's Book of Spells: An Anthology of Gaslight Fiction to me - and I thought (if they hadn't recommended to you) then a few here might be interested.

GRRM talks about Maurice Druon's Accursed Kings in the Huffington Post.

I discovered the Indigo Vat blog this morning and she has a fun project going: Gray Fox Epistles - you would sign up for the story and receive a letter in the mail once a month with that month's part of the story.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

That makes me very sad. I think I preferred when they were fighting.

Because books.

Better than Facebook? I don't know. I don't want Amazon to acquire everything, for one. And I can foresee every time I buy a book, an auto-post to my Goodreads account or something, and I don't like that. They could even do it for wish list items, I guess.

I don't want to link my FB and Goodreads accts either. I don't even "like" anything on FB. I hate that the "recommended" way to log in to places like Hulu is now via FB. Ugh.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My accounts are already linked, although sometimes I wish they were not. I really don't need to know when a relative reads 50 Shades of Grey.

I have the new Mercy Thompson book from the library! Just in time for a weekend away.

Co-signed! I realize this is probably a losing battle, but I really don't want every other site on the internet to be linked to my FB account or to know what I post about myself there.
