My arm is getting tired.

Tomorrow morning I leave the house, work a full day and then catch the red-eye to Dulles. Since I haven't started packing, tonight would be an excellent time to do so. Or to get some rest so that I can be up early tomorrow and pack then. And so, like the sage and experienced (rake, dandy, cynic, DJ, Sex Machine) that I am, I am
HOLY CRAP WATCHING THE PILOT EPISODE OF MIKE MIGNOLA'S AMAZING SCREW ON HEAD!!!!!
Go go go! Go to http://www.scifi.com/amazingscrewonhead/ because it's full of the crack and DHP and HOLY CRAP IT'S AMAZING SCREW ON HEAD!!!!!!
I now have to retrieve my Hellboy comics from Megan or whoever they are loaned to and re-read ASH. !!!! This episode is *so* quotable!
"Pardon me if I say Poppycock." "Then say it." "Poppycock."
"If by 'candy' you mean 'ancient forbidden evil' then yes, I told you not to put it in your mouth."
"I think your forbidden evil is fresh as a daisy."
Damn. Now I wish that the Hellboy GURPS game had come with world information for this. Lobster Johnson is nice and all, but.

So the front page of the Daily Commie Liberal Rag today had an article proclaiming that 'beauties seem drawn to geeks'. Their justification, which they say 'is pretty compelling', is this: Jennifer Aniston is dating Vincent Vaughn. Heather Locklear is dating David Spade. Jenny McCarthy is rumored to be dating Jim Carrey. Kirsten Dunst might sort of be dating Andy Samberg.
I've never heard of Andy Samberg. He might actually be a geek. But the other three, to whom the article refers as a 'galoot', a 'dork' and a 'knockabout funnyman', do not strike me as strong entries in the Geek category. This, of course, is secondary to the idea that four celebrity data points construe a sweeping new worldwide trend.
Now, if Salma Hayek starts dating Stephen Hawking, or Alison Hannigan were to start dating me....
