This will not deter my buying of used books.

What's life without a little danger?

My plan is to use this to get used books 30% cheaper. Or something like that.

"Whenever I finish a good book I eat the last page"

The world is just getting too dangerous to venture outside. I think I'll do the Emily Dickinson thing and never leave my room for a dozen years or so.

Orifice as orifice, right?

...and now I'm thinking of that scene in eXistenZ where Jennifer Jason Leigh demonstrates how holes in your body don't necessarily become infected. Damnit, there goes my day.

oh boy,there goes lunch.

Actually, that scene isn't all that awful. Just distracting.

- Listen to what you're saying, Pikul. Don't be ludicrous.
