Good morning, fuckers and fuckees!

I had this peculiar and wonderful dream about going to Cold Spring Harbor and getting on a ferry boat with most of the casts of The West Wing and 24. I was seated between John Spencer and Dennis Haysbert and I thought I was going to burst from awe. Then this whole Stargate: SG-1 subplot came in and I was much distracted by having suddenly turned into some amalgam/archetype of Maj. Carter. Then Col. O'Neill got blown up. Then the ferry docked at the Port Authority which somehow existed on the Lower East Side. Then Jor-El and J'onn J'onzz showed up and shit got REALLY weird. There was a running subplot where I was trying to write Sandman fanfiction in the dream, and I was thinking "Oh, Neil Gaiman will be so impressed with me" but now that I'm awake the story is utter dross.

Speaking as a lukewarm HP fan (if you can even call me that; I'd much rather they serialized Tamora Pierce's work onscreen), Kate Winslet is too old to play Fleur Delacour. Ridiculous. I'd still bang her til her head fell off.

Hilarious. I must locate a copy. It will go great with my issue of "Heroes Vs. HITLER" and my Battle Pope collection.

You have to love a comic that throws in a clincher like this:



Aryan Barbies gone heretical! RUN! SCHNELL! SCHNELL! And why is she wearing the same Calvin Klein shirt I owned in 1982? (Or was it Jordache? I can't remember)

J. used to have a copy of this. It's even worse than the article describes. This is why when I was a wee thing I only read pap like Richie Rich and the Archie pantheon. At least I KNEW I was reading below myself with those.

A little Dorothy Parker for lunch

A single flow'r he sent me, since we met.
All tenderly his messenger he chose;
Deep-hearted, pure, with scented dew still wet-
One perfect rose.

I knew the language of the floweret;
"My fragile leaves," it said, "his heart enclose."
Love long has taken for his amulet
One perfect rose.

Why is it no one ever sent me yet
One perfect limousine, do you suppose?
Ah no, it's always just my luck to get
One perfect rose.
