I haven't heard a peep from LSU, which is odd.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

WRT the JetBlue guy, according to the NYT's article yesterday (which made me laugh out loud multiple times), JetBlue didn't call the Port Authority police for over 30 minutes after the incident.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Allyson! That's fantastic! Peter Freaking Beagle loved your book, holy shit!
You realize the downside to this is that you can never again worry about not being a good enough writer without someone saying, Dude, Peter Freaking Beagle!
