Ploy or desperate move? What can only be considered as jaw dropping, Universal has decided to drop the prices of cds. The thing is, it might just be a bit too late.

An appeal was filed with the Supreme Court to determine whether the Bush Administration has violated the US Constitution by detaining the 660 prisoners in Cuba for over 18 months without a trial. They may not get a trial and they may not get released, and the sad truth of the matter is that the Court may decline to review the case as well.

Ok, so I'm a horrible person. I haven't been blogging as much as I should. It's because I hit another dry spell. Had a bit of bad news and well last week was my small descent into darkness culminating into my 'woe is me day' yesterday, and today I'm in my 'yay I'm me' mood. I don't know what that means, but it doesn't feel like the end of the world. And no, it doesn't mean that there will be an end to my Whedon-centric posts. Mwah ha ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So on we go with Whedon and the law. Trust me, I will find a correlation between the two.

Buffy won a Hugo, and for a wonderful screenplay might I add.

Note to self:
STOP READING ANGEL SPOILERS.

I'm so tired I seriously doubt I could come up with anything remotely witty, but this needs to be said.
I managed to learn a while back and learned again today that I am attractive, and contrary to what I use to believe, I do not scare away the unassuming male with my physical disability. It used to be a lovely excuse, but woe is me, I actually scare them away because of my sarcasm and as my father would say, feminism is just not appealing (not true). I also tend to be painfully shy. This of course does not mean that you should do the following if you are of the opposite sex:
Sit across from me on the public bus and oogle at me with your 70's teacher hairstyle that reminds me of my father when he was in college.
Drop a folded note in my basket with the words "Hey Beautiful," as you mischieviously grin and get off the bus.
Expect me to go out on a date with you after your note pronounces you to be a Bible lovin' student with a minor in stupidity if you really think I'm going to accept a date with someone who saw me on the bus and didn't speak a word. As if telling me I have a nice smile is going to make me swoon in my seat, or figuratively speaking, at your feet, make me say yes through small pants. What a lucky day this is for me. I get a date.
I'd rather die a nun.
I'll give a guy a chance if he tries to get to know me first, but not like this. So he's shy. Sure, not shy enough to write a note and walk away with that ridiculous look on his face.
The "Hey Beautiful," was a nice touch though, even if it was a bit freaky.
Why can't I attract the nice guys for once? Just once? Ok, so I'm an attractive woman, but I'd like to draw my counterpart to me and not the opposite, and I would like for the weird ones to stay away. Please.

In case you didn't know, I was in El Paso for over a week for a much needed vacation. Upon returning to my humble abode my roommate was most pleased. Apparently the old Yazzy is back. I'm no longer frazzled. We shall see.
I certainly did not miss the San Antonio humidity. My god, it's a sauna here.
I have so much to do too, like go to Career Services and ask them to show me how to write a cover letter (yes, I'm pathetic), and then there's the month's worth of email I have yet to answer. Oi vey

I need a new layout. Desperately. I'm sick of seeing this one. A revamp is in order. I just don't want to open photoshop. Go figure. Sheesh. But I will eventually.
Get this. I had this weird dream that livejournal was bought by yahoo, and this really pissed me off, so I closed my account there and took off all my writings and griped because I didn't know where to put them being that LJ is my writing journal of sorts (and for quizes).

How violent is too violent in a short story where it is deemed criminal instead of free speech?

Ah, finally there is some news. In an attempt to stop the subpoenas, lawyers have filed a lawsuit on behalf of Jane Doe, who is seeking to retain her anonimity by claiming that the RIAA's free use of these subpoenas is an invasion of privacy. I'm sure many agree, but I'm wondering how the courts will decide.
