GEEK ALERT -- Thoughts while watching B5

1. Can you imagine the casting call for telepaths: "We need thin, ascetic, ethereal looking people, especially women with long hair who look like startled deer."

2. BCFMO -- Brightly Colored Fast Moving Object. Byron refers to Lyta as a BCFMO.

3. I love my house. There's an a capella group meeting here tonight and D&D tomorrow night.

4. Speaking of tomorrow. Pandemonium Books, the region's only all-science fiction bookstore, re-opens tomorrow at noon at 4 Pleasant Street, behind the 7-11 in Central Square in Camridge, Mass. Tell Ruth that Liam sent you.

5. I am just about to watch the Neil Gaiman-written "Day of the Dead" with Reebo and Zooty.

Question -- Almost a meme

Question for the masses: It's the Day ot the Dead, who would you most want to have visit you?

Who would you least like to have come visit you?

Would your visitor most likely ask for coffee, like Mr. Morden?

More . . .

1. Londo: "Now anyone can be emperor. I can be emperor. Vir can be emperor! Vir can be emperor. A small Earth cat can be emperor."

2. Can any Emily Dickinson poem really be sung to "The Yellow Rose of Texas?"

3. "Maggots ate my flesh, and you want wisdom?" -- Mr. Morden.

4. Rainouts are like having to fold your sister's underwear.

5. I wanna "feed the cat" with Dodger.

6. And Zoe.

7. I just talked to T. I hadda tell her. Rock Art beer, from central Vermont, is now available in the Boston area. Please, if you support craft beer, buy it!
