Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Tim Curry scared me in Legend; I think it was puberty and they whole sexual dance thing. But that character freaked me the fuck out. (This is way, way before I'd ever even heard of Rocky Horror.)

I was 9, IJS.

But yeah, the goth princess dress was made of awesome.

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

In theory, I think a Predator-inspired motorcycle could be cool, but this just looks goofy:

Legend is quite pretty, so it's kind of worth looking at. It is not worth listening to, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

We just got the following e-mail from Facilities:

Great news, Costco has signed a one year agreement with Coca-Cola. Coke products will return on the next Costco order. Thanks for your patience during this non-coke period.

I almost want to make "Thanks for your patience during this non-Coke period" my new tag.

Dude. You totally did not take a bunch of people hostage and demand Coke. Go you!

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

Horses are horses.

Horses with horns that gore de-virginised women! Or was that just us extrapolating? Quite possibly.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I had a friend who sent out "I am no longer a friend to unicorns" postcards when she lost her virginity.

I believe my dad still thinks I can (and do) frolic with unicorns. His "I disbelieve you, but subtly" face was impressive when I told him this.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

"I could have caught a herd of unicorns, were not the bait so rare."

Can't remember where that came from ....

Best part of working at home (besides wine with lunch)? Surprise presents!

I was really starting to regret not getting a Christmas tree this year.

But then I got two things delivered today, from two different people, who don't know each other.

One box was a small potted Christmas tree. The other? An ornament.

It's like "The Gift of the Magi" in reverse. And full of awesomeness.
