I have hats; I have audiobook-related experiences
- The hats that I have are the same hats I've had in the past (e.g. a hat made out of a yak, a fez made out of what fezzes are made out of) plus two new wool winter hats.

Quick boring question
Does anybody have my Mahabharata DVDs?
Also, just by way of an information-content-containing reward for anybody who read the question above: persimmons. PERSIMMONS. I had never had one before last week; now, if you were to get between me and a persimmon, I would have to Take Steps. -

Obliquely Benningtonian notes
- Dude! Gratz to Nathan Parker, Bennington '95ish. I went to see Moon last night, when I should have been working, and it develops that he wrote the script! I didn't really know Nathan, just saw him around, but if I recall he was pretty serious about writing back then. So it's very satisfying to see his name in lights.
Independent of all that, Moon ( Read more... )
