Perkins, I am so sorry. You gave your Perkins a great life.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Krav maga is an Israeli-developed fighting style centered on the idea that when I put you down, you stay down. It's fast, it's brutal, and I love it. Sort of like club dancing but with more eye gouging and less grinding.
Interesting way to sum it up. Not how I'd have done it (I mean, there's no mention of groin strikes, so it's obviously not ita !'s take on the art. I don't even think of it as centred that way, now that I pause. I think it's centred on the ideas that nothing is sacred, and you get no points for fighting fair.
Is anyone here taking down their websites for SOPA blackout? I just noticed that a blog I read from time to time is doing so. I figure if it's occurring to me at 9AM on the day of, I'm obviously not the most conscientious.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Scrappy, I am so sorry about Layla. I know she'll be missed.
(Beloved pets need to stop getting sick, dammit.)
Anytime health insurance comes up on this board, I realize why I can never quit my job. (I pay nothing for a plan which includes my entire family with no deductible.)
And I now want to work for Jess's company. Even though I have no experience in that industry. I'm a quick learner though.

You're probably more qualified than I am to work for Top Gear...

I hate my health insurance. But I love my job, and it is insurance, so I'm not fucking with shit.

Utahns, help me out - what are the chances DH is going to be able to land in SLC on Friday? The weather's not looking good right now, but maybe SLC is better equipped to deal with snow than the Northeast is?

Because books.

Tumblr is. Sad-making, if admirable.

Utah is probably better than Seattle at it. It is snowing here! ...but I work from home, and have several things due (including one that was actually due yesterday). Sigh.
