elfsI've been re-reading the Honor Harrington series and I have to say: what the hell happened to David Weber? On the one hand, he got much better; in the first book, he gets away twice with writing, "As you know..." and one of his villians actually twirls his mustache! On other hand, in his youth his plots were tight, his dialogue precise, his politics mostly out of sight. I can't think of a sadder book than War of Honor, a bloated exercise in author-imposed worldviews and digressions. At least he's not Stephenson, but he's trying.
I woke up this morning with not just a song stuck in my head, but an entire album. An album I pray does not exist: Real Tough Cookie: Death Metal's Tribute to Pat Benetar. When you start dreaming of unlikely mashups, it's time to lay off the late-night anime.
An anagram of "Britney Spears" is... "Presbyterians!" Thanks to Jim Hightower for that laugh.
This seems right:
You're an elk skin flogger. You're not all about
looks, you're about utility. You like to get
down to business, and make an impact, but you
also have a soft side.
What Type of Flogger Are You?

I do see you have copped to being a monarchist
And that you're admitting to fondling the mental image of prison rape. I truely and sincerely you someday get to experience one yourself, as the "guest of honor", I really do.
