Please tell me that you dress Monster up in dragon wings.

Does anyone have an Osterhagen Key? It's the only way to be sure.

How about the people, like myself, who design the building that houses that soup kitchen? Or shelters, or hospitals or schools? So yes, design can help save the world.

Lucifer did kill them, but IIRC there were only about a half a dozen or so gods at the hotel. The world's religions have a pantheon of gods to choose from, so the writers aren't out of deities yet.

Not if they invent some type of drive capable of reducing the time to get to galaxies. So in that case maybe not a generational ship, but a ship that could survive on its own for a prolonged period.

I'd like to see a Star Trek set in a far far future where the Federation has pretty much explored the Milky Way. And the show is centered around Star Fleet's first attempt at a generational ship that goes on to explore other galaxies. That would certainly tie into point 2.

Did anyone watch the Talking Dead special this past weekend? They talked about that picture where Rick is pointing the gun. The "silencer" is a flashlight. Gotta work with what you have I guess.

I wonder if this version of Carrie will be more true to the book. While I really like De Palma's movie, it focuses more on what happens at the dance, where the book focuses on what happens to the whole town during Carrie's rampage.

My staunchly conservative relatives in central California would be more than happy if NorCal and SoCal became their own states.

Yeah, I just looked it up. The population of the UP is a little under 300,000, and the least populous state, Wyoming, has a little under 600,000 people.

There's still a certain faction of people in Michigan's Upper Peninsula who want to separate from Michigan and become the 51st state. Although I'd imagine if it were to do so, it would be one of the poorest states in the Union.

Agreed. This is just screaming to be an episode of Supernatural.

I'm going to miss Arya and Tywin's conversations. They need they're own spin-off show.

I was reading the comments on this Kotaku article (which I should really stop doing) about the writer's experience playing as a gay Shepard. And a good portion of comments are about how the possibility of Shepard being gay completely destroyed their enjoyment of the game. One commenter was completely terrified that a…

The character who's gotten the shitty end of the deal in all of this: Jeremy. First his parents, then his aunt, then Ric and now his sister. Dude needs to get out of Mystic Falls and never look back.

If anyone is interested in reading a counter point to Mr. Victore's claim that shyness is just a bad habit, I'd suggest Quiet: The Power Of Introverts In A World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain. Shyness and/or introversion is simply a different way of processing the world, and there is nothing inherently wrong…

I definitely take that as a compliment. :)

In the part of Michigan where I grew up, most families are descendants of Canadians who came down to Michigan from Ontario after the Civil War. So there are definitely close ties to our Canadian cousins. I even have a quasi-Canadian accent. :)
