""In any case, fire burns; that's its nature, and you can't expect to change that. You can use it to cook your meat or to burn down your neighbor's house. And is the fire you use for cooking any different from the one you use for burning? And does that mean you should eat your supper raw?"
Maddy shook her head, still puzzled. "So what you're saying is . . . I shouldn't play with fire," she said at last.
"Of course you should," said One-Eye gently. "But don't be surprised if the fire plays back.""— Joanne Harris

Deep Thought, obviously.
We have no Ursula Le Guin books on CD in our library system. Bummer.
Damn it! Leelu beat me to the Hitchhiker joke!
How deep?
Commenter discretion.
Coming from you, I expect them deep and hard.
Your expectations seem a trifle high.
Like you.
Those Ursula LeGuin books are worth reading. You should try them. Tombs of Atuan was a little slow to start tho.
Watching the Daily Show and Colbert Report tonight for the first time in a while. I have to remember to link to the videos once they become available. John Oliver's comparison of W. to Abe Lincoln; John Stewart's interview of Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, one of the most agreeable sounding Republicans I've seen; and Colbert's "The Word" on Missouri: "Worry." All quite good.
Well now I know where I stand. Apparently All Around My Brain is now only viewable by invitation, which seems not to mean me.
