So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Quiet day here. I'm going to finally watch the movie I got from Netflix back in June.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I suppose I could legitimately complain about how difficult it is to clean my floors if I washed them more than once every <mumble> months.

I watched it on Oxygen, which is where I watched most of the equestrian events as well as the field hockey gold medal match. They covered gymnastics every day of the Olympics.
For reasons that are beyond me, Oxygen is the one channel I get that airs everything on East Coast time, rather than West Coast time. So when I got home at five, Stick It was on. Twice in a row. So irritating. And I didn't learn about this fluke until the night before, so I didn't have a chance to go buy a video to record it.
I cannot believe that Franny is five. That's just crazy talk.
Pretty floor, beth!

I have a taxi coming to take me to the airport in 45 minutes. I think I'm packed. I have tossed most of the perishables from the refrigerator.
I probably should zip up my suitcase and put it near the front door so I stop dwelling on what I've forgotten to pack.

OK, these boxing announcers are wonderful! After listening to all these pro announcers during the Olympics, I love listening to that Bronx accent. The discussion of the one boxer whose mother used to put him in dresses was great. "If your mom puts you in dresses, you better learn to fight!" "Or run real fast."
Why, yes, it's scrap ends of Olympic competition on as background.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Make the posession of Klingon knives criminal, and only criminals will have Klingon knives. Oh, and Klingons.
Klingon knife scares the crap out of dumb British scandal-sheet
Piss-poor scandal-sheet The Daily Mail has a hilariously breathless account of a giant stainless steel Klingon fighting-knife received by police during a knife-amnesty; to hear them tell of it hooded thugs are roaming the streets with Klingon duelling swords looking for little old ladies to terrorise.
A spokesman for police in Gloucester, where it was surrendered, said: "It is a particularly nasty weapon that can, literally, take someone's head off. We are very glad it is off the streets and we want more weapons handed in."
The blade is believed to be a stainless-steel copy of a Klingon weapon used in the science fiction series Star Trek. "It's an extremely dangerous weapon," said a martial arts expert last night.
