There are two people in the world. Those that prefer Footloose, and those that prefer Flashdance. Me: Footloose. Literary analysis of plot character motivation and themes. Method? Post-structuralist, baby. OK it’s been 10 years since I did any form of serious literary anything, so it’s a shallow attempt, and yet, I try.

Yes, it’s a blog chain mail- meme- but also it’s short and sweet, really. This one is “5 things that you may not know about me”… and since the audience runs the spectrum, from new friends to old friends, friends in Turkey (Merhaba!) and France, (Salut!)- so it’s quite hard to find things that I [...]
The sequence of my indoctrination into Church of Justin Timberlake.
First, all Christmas vacation have PaxilBack on your mind.

Read this lovely post Lauren wrote, “I’m Officially Older,” and was inspired to do my own Birthday Wrap-up.
The Old Moment
First though, Lauren talks about the time that she felt like she was getting old- nobody asked about her age, for fear of offending her. I remember joking with girlfriends about our age and how we [...]
I’m addicted to Lost. Lostpedia here, on the Numbers business.
It started when I breezily picked up the DVD at FilmYard last month. At this point I’m an iTunes season pass holder. D’oh! 3 seasons in a few weeks, there you go. My crush on Naveen Andrews and Josh Halloway hasn’t damped, but let’s say I’m [...]
As a lark I tried to write a French version of the latest iMurder story. Well the beginning of the anecdote is: a commenter here requested a French version (I guess the yahoo/google translate method wasn’t so hot), and I threw the idea around with a friend who does French translations. Well, “threw” is a [...]
Mac paid the check- it was his turn- and they walked out onto a warm July evening.They decided to get in a cab and head downtown.
