It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

Looks like a good deal. Not quite right for Buffistaville though. Buffista Island a better plan.

Yikes I looked at the pictures of the Tram stranded people [link] and really there is not a chance that would ever happen to me because there is no way I would ever get on a Tram like that. I'd swim the East River first.

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

Perkins, I hope your stomach shapes up and quickly.

I'm slightly dizzy this morning, but not enough, I think, to stop me from driving in an hour or so.

Sue, I thought the wedding was very sweet, although I wish they'd explained what the argument with the grandmother was --it was obviously predictable to the characters, but I felt like I missed something. There was also minimal use of the townspeople considering, but I really missed the hot boys and hated the oh-so-predictable outburst of Lorelai's poorly managed resentment. And what set her off seemed so minor, all told.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Of course, a civil war or two in the next couple of years might change the calculus somewhat.

I'd argue that there's been a cold civil war going on for a good 15 years or more. At minimum, since Buchanan's speech at the 1992 Republican convention.

hip deep in pie

ita, I had actually had the TV on mute during Lorelai's outburst, (My sister called) so it didn't really register with me, even though I could totally see what was happening, even with the show muted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Perkins, I hope you're feeling better, and/or taking a sick day today. Sick is sick!

Art Crawl!!!

I hated Loreilai's drunken speech at the end - but there was much to love in this episode. I wondered whether the untranslated Korean was thanks to Lost ?
