Is snow normal there? I remember a light dusting in Yokosuka when I was there many years ago, and people were freaking out.

It's rainy, spring-like weather here today. Normally, all the parking lots around town have "snow mountains" until at least May. This year they're gone. Maybe it was all GregMo's fault...

Hmm. I'm struggling here. Would it have been worth missing To Kill a Mocking Bird in order to avoid Catcher in the Rye? Tough call. Then again,it's entirely possible that, had I read them in high school, that would be reversed.

I have to admit, it's puzzling why the "standard" has increased from 10 to 15 to 20% in my life time. I mean, it's not like the menu you're basing the tip on hasn't kept pace with inflation. Have to agree here; but then I never tip at Starbucks or it's equivalent. If that makes me evil, so be it.

Holy shit; I almost fell out of my chair.

By the way, I'm well aware that I may be the only person on Earth who feels this way (or even worse, will now be contacted by other fans of the first season who turn out to all be serial killers or hedge fund managers), but I just can't see the problem with it. I suppose it's possible that I was still too much the fan, but considering my reaction to the movies (They ALL stunk except for that one. You know which one.) but still, maybe I was seeing something that wasn't there rather than just not noticing the problems others see.

Domenico Modugno Dikembe Mutombo D. M. Larson Yeah, we all know I'm only pretending to go for the initials thing when I couldn't think of anyone who sounded remotely like the first two...

Really. I enjoyed the first season (other than my annoyance with a couple of characters, but then that wasn't just the first season). I thought it was better than the original series episodes.

I'm about a third of the way through the fourth book of Zelazny's second Amber series, which I've never read before. I'm surprised to discover that it's better than the first. To be honest, I thought the first was about as high a level as Zelazny could manage.

Holy shit. Next time I spot a name I'm unfamiliar with, I might just skip the google... Jack Webb Spider Robinson Venus Flytrap

I have to confess, I never understood the general dissatisfaction with the early Next Generation seasons.
