We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Like, as extra information later on in the article, sure, but it's the first piece of information they give about him.

"If you have a person you suspect of being Mr. San Diego, try offering him eggs and bacon for breakfast. If he eats them, you can be assured, he is NOT Mr. San Diego"

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I need a new swimsuit. I'm thinking its time for Esther...

I'm thinking a Classic Sheath

Trudy, Lands End is having a really good sale on swimwear right now, and they have a suit almost exactly like the Esther one: [link]

I just ordered this one, in black: [link]

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

If anyone's ordering from Lands' End, I usually have a free shipping code.

I think they're having free shipping right now, although it's only for a few days, IIRC. (I'm envious of your free shipping code!)

t edit No, that might just be a special deal they e-mailed me.

If you're on their mailing list, they generally have free shipping offers that they pass out like candy.

Damn pimps. That's how they got me. I mean, I did need a new swimsuit, and the sale is a good sale, but the words "free shipping" always get me.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I am a genius! I figured out how to download free .txt files of books and convert them to a format that I can read on the eBook reader on my iPod, and then transfer them to my iPod! (OK, maybe not genius. But person who can figure out confusing and contradictory instructions, anyway.) It's not perfect -- the original book had the title at the top of each page, and that got preserved through all the conversions, even though the pagination is different, so I end up with the book title showing up every few iPod pages in the middle of the page, but that's dealable.

Technology is neat.

OK, and now back to reading silly books when I should be sleeping.

“Not dead yet!”

I'm moody and I'm not sure why, exactly. Huh.

All is well that ends in pizza.

That's not just technology, that's textology.

I'm lying in my bed, reading on my iPod a book that actually lives in a library on the other side of the country! (I tried to find it around here first, but the only library in the DC area that has it is Catholic University, and it's in a non-circulating collection, because it's old, and I'm not quite interested enough to go all the way over there to sit in their library and read it. But reading this version, which has gone through at least three electronic formats to end up in my apartment? Neat.)

Still love the look and feel of actual paper books. But when they can't be found, this is an awesome alternative.
