I feel the need to change my tagline.
Let's see....Aha!
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
MLP is an acquired taste. I could never get into it.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
PC, there are some episodes of it that are fabulous. The opening two-parter is one of the weakest part of the series, alas.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy birthday to three fantastic Buffistas!

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

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
man those people suck. I am doubling down on the message of I owe you a good upbringing and values and not stuff. That is truly appalling, the spoiled brat entitlement. We need to print that out and give it to parents and tell them "this is what your kids are going to be like if you keep just giving them more and more stuff".

So one of my theatre friends does his own "Best of 2011" awards. He does a lot of theatre, and he SEES a shitload of theatre. So imagine my surprise when I, of all people, was awarded Best Performance by an Actor (along with my co-star).
There was so much to love about Meg Cohen's "Joe Ryan", from Meg's funny and poetic script to Matt Gunnison and Kirsten Broadbear's excellent chemistry in the lead roles, but the best performances of the night were hands down John Lennon Harrison and Sunil Patel as a pair of criminal buddies whose first substantial backstory scene got a well-deserved standing ovation. Harrison is hands down one of the best and most underused actors in the San Francisco Theater scene and so to see him in such a substantial and fantastically written role was delightful, but Patel was the real "find", nailing a character I think it's safe to say NOBODY would have expected him in: a heroine addicted underworld doctor who has become the best friend of a murderous thug. Patel and Harrisoin not only captured their respective characters as individuals but the nature of the relationship between two such men and the final scene of the show, with Harrison emerging from the ground in Kezar stadium with Patel's corpse in his arms, was heartbreaking.
