Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

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."

Our wings are not tired.

I've liked/kept up with Alexie since my early Salon.com TT days (1995 or so), where he was a regular poster.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal

My favorite was when he said in re the Bering Strait landshelf deal: "No, we're really first. Neener." Or something adult like that. But it almost really made me rotfl, with my two drops of native blood and all that.

We go back to the Trail of Tears in four easy generations. But I still can't be real Indian, though. No jump shot.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

My family (OK, one great-grandmother's family) somehow skipped the whole Trail of Tears trip. Not sure how they managed it, but they ended up in North Carolina.

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

I really like the Jane Austen mystery series by Stephanie Barron, but it started before this craze really took off.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Oh, I've read one of those, and I agree it was perfectly enjoyable.
