Hello, flist. Just letting you know that I've just finished writing the summary for issue 3 of this comic at Battlestar Wiki. I wrote the summaries for issues 1 and 2 as well. It's an interesting read, but I'm afraid they got a detail wrong in the latest one, unless that's somehow explained in issue 4.

The Surrealist is a site that hosts many of those entertaining random generators that use words or livejournal user names entered by the user of the generator. I've been having fun with the New Years Resolution and Ten Days of Christmas generators, which use the interests and friends of the person whose user name is entered in. Like so:
In 2008,
Admit my true feelings to
Give some cats to charity.
Be nicer to
Apply for a new spike.
Drink four glasses of crossover every day.
Spend less time on digimon.
On the twelfth day of Christmas,
Twelve animorphs drumming
Eleven darklighters piping
Ten wolves a-leaping
Nine tigers dancing
Eight bears a-milking
Seven cats a-swimming
Six dreams a-laying
Five anya-a-a-a jenkins
Four spiderwick chronicles
Three jake simmonds
Two martha jones
...and an angel in a my family.
- The first toy product ever advertised on television was Mr The Weird Sisters Head.
- Half a cup of the Weird Sisters contains only seventeen calories.
- Three seagulls flying overhead are a warning that the Weird Sisters are near.
- The Weird Sisters can be found on a Cluedo board between the Library and the Conservatory!
- The Weird Sisters are often used in place of milk in food photography, because milk goes soggy more quickly than the Weird Sisters.
- Worldwide, the Weird Sisters are the most important natural enemy of night-flying insects.
- If your ear itches, this means that someone is talking about the Weird Sisters.
- In the 1600s, tobacco was frequently prescribed to treat headaches, bad breath and the Weird Sisters.
- The Weird Sisters can fly at an average speed of fifteen kilometres an hour.
- Without its lining of the Weird Sisters, your stomach would digest itself!
The Rules: Post info about ONE Supreme Court decision, modern or historic, to your lj. (Any decision, as long as it's not Roe v. Wade.) For those who see this on your f-list, take the meme to your OWN lj to spread the fun.
Tinker v. Des Moines School District: http://www.east-buc.k12.ia.us/02_03/AG/t
* Open the book to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.
"But I was not sure I believed it." - The Hork-Bajir Chronicles, KA Applegate
I love that it manages to tell a relatable story without any human characters.
When you see this, post another Supernatural quote in your LJ. Let's see how long this can go on.
"You see me messing with crystals or listening to Yanni? It's actually a very old idea. Got a lot of different names: Bilocation, crisis apparition, fetches... I think it's happening to us. And if it is, it means that we're spirits of people close to death."
- In My Time of Dying
"Our family's not cursed. We just have our dark spots."
"Our dark spots are pretty dark."
"You're... dark."
- Nightmare
