The bloke opposite me on the train was reading Fragile Things, but I couldn't compliment him on his astute choice of reading matter because there was already an odd passenger one seat along who was accosting random passengers with inane conversation, and I didn't want to be seen as another one of the same...

i haven't kept up with this thread, so for all i know someone else might have already seen these, but -

today in the grocery store escher and i were idly scanning the impulse shelves while our items were being rung up, and he picked up an odd-looking new (to us) gum. I noticed there were 3 flavors, 2 of which were "Rain" and "Cobalt," and immediately thought of the posters.


(anyone know how either of them are doing, by the way?)

So I don't know why this made me think of the board, but it did.

I drive past llama's pretty much any time I go to my parents house becuase some farmer near their place has 5 or 6, and the most I ever think about is the llama song. However, when I was in Oregon this past week we saw some llamas, and I can't even remember where... I think it was in Bandon on the Oregon coast and one threatened to spit on a little girl (which was hilarious in its own right) and for some reason I got to thinking of the board.

Also, I would post pictures of my trip if I can ever find where my girlfriend put the pictures on her computer.

I saw a girl who reminded me of Maddy on Tottenham Court Road. She had big, pink plastic-framed sunglasses on.

There are lots of Glenn Fabry Neverwhere artwork up on eBay now.

The whole convention Saturday reminded me of various peoples from the board, too many to list


BUT, there was another convention going on in the other side of the building called Stitch...it was for knitting and such...so I thought about all the board knitters!

after reading that story i don't want to know anymore. Golden Girls is forever associated with my grandmother, since i used to watch it with her when i was a kid. That's got trauma potential.

I keep finding knitting patterns for items with the Dark Mark from Harry Potter.
Maybe Mark needs Dark Mark socks for Christmas?

At the Zoo today...

BigAss Panda!


Llama! With Llama's Big Brother!


Mischief!

Big Grin I might have freaked people out a little by actually saying these loudly whenever I discovered the respective animal...

Oh yes, the librarian of the UU was there too - he tried to hide under a tarpaulin, but we found him!

last weekend on the plane I read a short story collection by Peter s Beagle and one of the stories was about kid witches, the dad makes the older sister swear not to hurt her little brother by making her say "I swear by Buffy the Vampire Slayer..." and I laughed out loud! Seemed like that should be a board thing, to swear by Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
