Q: How did Sleeping Beauty invest her gold?
A: Hedge funds.

I’m sorry.  That joke popped into my head right before lunch.  In a just universe, my nemesis would plot me a horrible demise for writing it.  My brain is still recovering from the long weekend of lawnwork, back pain, hospital visits (a friend with an injured arm), and family time.  So it’ ( Read more... )

I vote for the classic spork.

Where's that poll thingy? What? We're not voting?

Polls are a little trickier now. I'm posting from Wordpress, which doesn't have the build-in LJ code support. I can either manually add those after the fact, or figure out if there's a poll-enabling plugin. But I haven't gotten that far yet.

I flubbed up the code enough just adding in the word count and currently reading bits :-P

LOL. I actually liked the joke. And I picked up MythOS (and the third one, although I'm really behind and still haven't read the second one yet) at Balticon this weekend. Woot!

And I'm going to have to go with the classic titanium spork. The ultimate spork looks like it would be handy, but if it ever came down to a fight it looks a lot flimsier. And with your search for a nemesis well under way, the time may come when you will need to depend on your trusty spork.

I think the Tick would probably advise you to go even more old school and stick with a spoon, though.

I've got book two on my wish list as well, but as always, it's too many books and too little time :-P

How was Balticon? I hear good things about that one.

Balticon was fun. I only went for one day of it, but I went to some fun panels (and got to be in the same room as Charles Stross...yay!) and also got to meet jpsorrow in person. :) I might try to go again next year, but I'm glad I just went for one day because I don't think I had the energy for more than that.

Got to go with the classics, cool as the redesign may appear.

It might not last forever but it's versatile!
