So, because I live in a hole in the ground (not unlike a hobbit, I suppose), and have developed numerous news avoidance tactics, I entirely missed the fact that, way back in October, Sarah Palin tried to keep the Cook Inlet beluga whales from receiving Federal protection under the Endangered Species Act.

I think that would be an excellent plan re: Palin. -- She is either destined for embarrassingly high national office, or a career on reality television.

My brother finally coerced me into trying out WoW, and I totally cannot navigate in the Undercity. I think my bro. is a bit frustrated at how I keep accidentally dying in the elevators.

Undercity takes a little getting used to, layout wise. Spooky and I both had nasty elevator accidents. But, there's actually a fairly simple plan at work in Undercity. You just have to grasp it (which took me more levels than it should have).

I understand the theory of how it's laid out, but in practice I just can't steer, I think.

It doesn't help that my summoned pet thingy keeps blocking my view at key plunge-to-my-death moments. I guess that's what happens when you traffic with demonic entities.

(Hmm, now I'm tempted to practice some more, so perhaps I'd best go out to one of Providence's decreasing number of cafes without wireless so I can get work done.)

It's likely one of the most cohesive issues we've done.

I maintain it's also one of the best. I want a collection of yellow-house stories-"So Runs the World Away," "The Dead and the Moonstruck," "The Daughter of the Four of Pentacles," "Portrait of the Artist as a Young Ghoul," "Night Games in the Crimson Court," "Pickman's Other Model," and now "The Thousand-and-Third Tale of Scheherazade" and "The Belated Burial." Vince's illustration for the former is particularly nice.

this Spring to be Sarah Palin Hunting Season.

I forgot to mention: Alaska's Mount Redoubt may erupt imminently. If so, note that Wasilla is on its corner of the map . . .

We shall see.

Yep. I was particularly pleased with it.

The Immaculate Order of the Falling Sky does acknowledge volcanoes as instruments of extermination.

Sirena stories

I read the digest this morning when I woke up, and gobbled it up in one sitting. I loved the stories. They had such spooky resonance to them, that I felt all those peeling walls and the cold ground and gingery taste of fear. thank you.

I think she'd be a better porn star than a president, in all honestly.

Snuff, maybe.

[greygirlbeast]

Torture porn. Which would also involve shoving barbed wire up certain parts of the anatomy...

Now we're talking...

[greygirlbeast]

Indeed, I like your idea of a Sarah Palin Hunting Season, but it just seems too ... lenient.

Worse, it's such a one-off. Maybe there should only be rubber bullets...
