I've given a pass to several of the facebook questionaires going around, but figure I'd give this one a go this morning. Be forewarned... I did not take any of the questions seriously and basically put in clever smart-ass answers because I'm really a very private and timid sou---

You aren't going to buy that, are you? Well, because coming up with odd answers wakes my brain up a bit. For those who'd rather skip the tedium of watching me try to be clever than I really am, hit your "Find" feature in your browser and type the word "cornucopia" to skip to the end.

The picture is here solely because I find it kind of disturbing. And comforting.

I should finish the Van Alexander book later today, or by early morning at the latest. It's been a productive week thus far. I should be turning in the 2nd proof of the medical journal as well, and as I await the edits of the SFWA Bulletin, I can sneak in some more material for the upcoming Nebula Awards Weekend. Good week. Good week.


Rumor has it...Zebras are neither white with black stripes, nor black with white stripes. They are a teal color with salmon highlights. The black and white stripes are the result of an optical illusion used by zebras to confuse zoologists and childrens book authors.
