He's been living there so long, where the winds of limbo roar?

I agree with Fall-apart on this. I felt I enjoyed the books in spite of Katniss, not because of her, especially after the first one.

I want to thank you for that link. I actually have a lot of sensory integration issues (My senses are hyperactive, and most of it gets translated into brain-overloaded pain) and we've long wanted to see if I could get any relief in one of these, but we couldn't find any locally. :)

This is pretty slick dealing between DC and Marvel. I applaud them both. Store owners will buy heavily so they have enough stock to both make sure their customers have the issues they want, and that they have enough overstock to get in on the Marvel deal. This will mean that Marvel's special edition 'reward' will be…

Yes, but I can change the font size on an e-book reader, this making an unreadable book readable to me. Paper can not, and never will, offer that. Yes I could use a magnifying glass or whatnot, but they make my head hurt.

Moreso than trading the aliens our children so they don't kill us, ala the collaborator? :) Honestly, once you combine 'aliens' and 'they want our children', it is going to be hard to get away from Children of Earth.

I think you can have the 'is he isn't he' discomfort and still make the actual hows and whys be interesting. I liked most of the episode and the 'Is he going to do Something Bad' with the kids?' but then the Something Bad was kind of meh when there were so many much more interesting things they COULD have done.…

I keep wondering where us ladies fall on the Bechdel test. I mean, does it fail if it's talk about romance? Or is it OK because it's not about men? Lesbians seem like an easily exploited loophole for 'Only ever talking about men'. You can have the exact same inane chatter, make it about a woman, and POOF!

So they keep breeding, duh!

I bought the captured alien thing. They never expected to capture it, they didn't really know what to do with it, and at that point she was on a deadling to either make progress or they were going to shoot it. Well, she made progress, and nothing was shot! I kind of hope there continues to NOT be much/any…

I had a hope for a bit that the collaborator really WAS with the military, and they'd decided to use the kids as some kind of bait/trap/whatever. Say, they found a way that when they are harnessed, it causes a feedback loop of some kind and causes Mass Chaos. Then the moral question of 'Do we use our kids as weapons?'…

Like all of the best min-maxxing creatures, they know you survive longer with a 20 constitution rather than a 20 charisma. Hardy over pretty!

Isn't being a french woman syndrome enough?

AHHH. Eragon. Oh my god that is the worst movie ever. We like the books (My wife loves them, in fact), and you shouldn't be able to go wrong with people like John Malkovitch, but that was just.. It was painful. Physically painful. The only movie I have ever considered walking out on. But I had to stick it out just so…

I liked up until the Random Killing of Ianto, because we can't have Teh Ghey around. Especially disturbing on a show that became popular in part because it was.

Hey, look. A new Sci Fi show is announced, and the entire community joins together to say how horrible it is before it's anything more than a vauge concept!

You think they didn't?

Well, from the perspective of a 900+ year old, there really is nothing in his age bracket, and he certainly isn't 'old'. I would assume eventually you just take on the view that each culture determines for itself what is adult, and that's what he abides with. Adult is adult.

As far as I know, it's mostly dead. PernMUSH itself had a major schism a couple years back and a bunch of people cloned it and restarted on another server, but I don't think it lasted too long. Other than that, none of them really have a player base anymore. If it doesn't have pretty pictures, it doesn't have a…

How does an android have descendants?
