I tried to resist, but now I’m giving in.

Okay, so I just got an email, and it’s an invitation! It’s inviting me to a seminar! And in a bout of surprising yet refreshing honesty, it’s letting me know right up front that the event will be, perhaps, somewhat dull!

No, really, the email subject line is:

This Year’s Bl@nd Seminar

(I’ve swapped the ‘a’ for an ‘@’ because — as I realized after opening the email in bemusement, it’s a person’s name. And while laughter is the best medicine, and I couldn’t resist sharing the lols, there’s no need to *invite* trouble from the self-googling.)

Still giggling.

Fic Rec ‘o The Day

The Face That Launched a Thousand Ships, by igrab

Tron fic is proving surprisingly hard to come by. But I liked Dillinger Jr, and I like the idea of an Encom Christmas part (I guess I’m not quite over the holidays yet). I’m having a tough time suspending disbelief for some common fanon ideas — Sam and Ed Jr. were friends as kids (love the idea, don’t totally buy it), programs can come into the physical world and pass as humans (programs *already* exist in our world — as programs!). But hey, I didn’t totally buy the Billy/Kat love connection either, but I still liked Earthsiege. (/random Power Rangers flashback.)

I liked this fic too, in case that wasn’t clear.

As the evening winds down, Junior’s come to two conclusions – one, that Quorra can’t possibly be human; and two, this can’t possibly be the last he sees of her.
