Today my mother had jury duty. The justice center, where one reports for jury duty, is two blocks away from Reading Terminal (huge market area with lots of awesome food), and so I said she should go to lunch there. She says--I am not kidding--"I'm not going out for lunch, I'll get lost." It was not a joke. She also was saying she was not going ( Read more... ) -
Dear "Avengers" fanfic writers:
Hulk did indeed refer to Loki as "puny." This should not, however, be taken to mean that he does not also know much more common words like "small," "little," "tiny," etc. Please have him use them occasionally.

According to Gwyneth Paltrow, Tony and Pepper haven't had sex yet. The implication, when this was mentioned on TV Tropes, is that it's a sign of just how much Tony loves her.

Looking for a good vid to post to Facebook as a "newbie intro to where I was this weekend" (Tribal Forces) I found this:

If there's one thing that unites mankind, it's our all consuming need to get to the can when diarrhea strikes. You can be a Shaolin monk, a soccer mom, a marine or a five-year-old girl, but when that feeling starts to brew down below, may God have mercy on anyone who stands in your way.That's really quite profound (so profound that I'm actually ( Read more... ) -
Huh.
What I knew: A woman I was friendly with in college, Leslie Stefanson, has been involved with James Spader for several years now. What I didn't know: They have a baby!I wish I remember if she'd ever mentioned him back then...that'd be pretty funny if she had been a fangirl or something. She might well have been, I don't really remember that sort ( Read more... ) -

Not like I did anything other than crop and resize, but still...
Doctor Who Magazine had a countdown of Doctor Who's saddest deaths (from the whole run, not just Nine and Ten), number one being Astrid Peth's from "Voyage of the Damned," and one of the "Top 20 Tearjerkers" being Bannakaffalatta's death from the same ep. And those both were sad and ( Read more... )
