Yes, Tom I love the retro fridges. Sadly, not really doable right now. I do need to start looking for a fridge though. Maybe that is how I will spend my time today. Bills be damned.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Did anyone keep a copy of the original version for posterity?
Something struck me in reading that io9 article. Didn't Gus claim to be (in addition to Somali and Irish) a Traveler? The article talks about how the 3 founders (if indeed there were 3 founders) of TVTropes "met at MIT's Russian House, where they were drawn together over their interest in a role-playing game called Traveller."
Huh.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ita, would it be easy to check the server log to see how many people ended up here from io9?

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

I don't have a copy of WebTrends anymore, but I can peek by hand. Maybe the webhost has a parser.
Oh, look--The Wire is in my queue. At 200-something. Let me bump the first disc higher and see what the noise is about.

I just started watching The Wire. I think I've only made it through 2 discs because of The Busy but I'm enjoying it well enough. It's funny to recognize places. Wonder if season 1 has my old apartment complex in it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I still haven't seen the last season of The Wire, and should really re-watch the whole thing without commercials and with all of season 2 -- I was watching it on BET and most seasons they ran each episode as 1.5 hours instead of cutting stuff out, but they chopped the second season episodes.

Because books.

Let me know before you get rid of them? I would ... probably be willing to pay way too much for them.

I will not gouge you for money. They were a gift years agoa nd although I love them, I have amassed quite a collection of pink and turquoise ones that better match my kitchen. Let me look into how much postage would be to ship them safely and we'll work something out.
