Returning Fairness and Balance to the Force
Ah, Chicago in the summertime.
On the plus side, we're not affected by the power outages further east. On the not-so-plus side, I'm close enough to the lakefront that the jets from the Air & Water Show keep buzzing overhead. I pity the folks on the top floor of the building.
Not much to add to Fair and Balanced Friday, I'm afraid. Bit of mucking about with the links -- I'm not sure why I hadn't added Soapboxgirls ages ago, except for extreme suckage, and I'd thought that Eschaton was there at one point.
I am much confused.
Don't suppose anyone has a copy of the Brief Lives Sandman tpb handy, to find out what Delirium's word is that means both red and green?
Or have picked up Jill Thompson's At Death's Door, which I really shouldn't even be thinking of buying no matter how much I like her work?
I'm looking for an review here. One which is Fai-- oh, you know the drill by now.
And I added the link to the Sequential Tart interview with Jill up there so I remember to check it out later, since their site seems to be down at the moment. Reading it from the Google cache seems like cheating somehow.
I have a horrible feeling I'm forgetting something or someone. Gentle reminders welcome.
Comments
I have nothing interesting, fair, or balanced to say. It's just been way too long since I last commented here, and I miss it. How's everyone doing?

Fair and balanced? Say what you will, hon, Faux News uses it, and goddess knows it isn't fair or balanced.
Aaron, dubbing me T'Pol is actually quite on-target. Thanks! :)

I don't have it handy, but I seem to remember it's chartreuse...

Isn't 'Uper' the color red & green simultaneously, eh?
Sorry, I'm done now.

Dru, you've been missed. I'm doing ok, and hope you and yours are too. Um, I owe you an email, don't I?
Natalie, no problem, glad to see my mutant nickname choosing powers are still working. Oh, and take your Vulcan cynicism and bury it!
Liz, thanks, but I don't think that's the one. . .
Neo, go to your room.

Funny, that's what I told her to do, too . . .
Hiya, Dru!

Whee, we're on the link list! Can we be the Mayor? Or Andrew? Or Faith? Or or or?

Lauren, gosh darn it, I just have two words for you girls:
Miniature golf.
The Mayor it is. Unless you'd really prefer Andrew. I mean, he does know how The Bronze makes that onion flower thing now. . .

Woo-hoo! I'm gonna brag to all my friends... :)

We're the Mayor! Is there a t-shirt that comes with that?

Lauren, no worries. Helping those in need’s my job, - and working up a load of sexual tension, and prancing away like a magnificent poof is truly. . . I have got to stop doing that.
Emira, don't tempt me. I've already been asked when I'm going to start offering tchotchkes through Cafe Press or something.
