At request of ChezB (WINOLJ), the 110 banned books meme ... and boy was this a pain in the tuchas. Took me a few tries to copy the list of books without the formatting and paste it into Semagic.

No way was I gonna remove all those nifty little HTML formatting tags. Yeah, I'm sure there was an easier way of doing it than pasting the list into MS ( Read more... )

Big set of indulgences to so far this year? Buffy the Vampire Slayer on DVD. I've got six seasons, and am jonesing for the seventh. Also got 1 and 3 of Angel, and will go after ( Read more... )

I was going to say "no big surprise," but scoring higher for Faith than for Giles *was* a surprise. Anya, well, I usually keep my revenge fantasies firmly in the realm of fantasy. I acted one out once, and promised myself never to forget what a bad idea it was. And so far, despite some temptation, I haven't ( Read more... )

Doesn't the secret weapon just make the whole thing?

Gotta run to Morris practice; ratz, no time to indulge in a little shopping en route. Real content some time Real Soon Now, honest....
