I think she has to finish it

sassymonkey — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 14:21:27 -0500

If not it will be the one thing she's asked about in every interview for the rest of her career. It will hang over her head. I totally understand her being mad that it was leaked (I would, like Denise, say it was leaked on purpose but her reaction to it was too strong and...bad). I'm expecting it to come out late next year (I have no official reason to think this, it's just my personal guess).

Oh I think she'll finish it. The pessimist in me says it was leaked on purpose but since I don't know that for sure, don't quote me.

Have you read the leaked pieces of Midnight Sun?

I'm not sure if you go to her site www.stepheniemeyer.com but she said a while ago that the book was leaked to the internet before completion and she isn't sure she will finish it now.

This is just one way on discourage poor from smoking but not rich people from smoking, therefore, this is not helping. The only way I see it is to put band on cigarettes selling in the entire USA period.

You can insert a picture that's already been uploaded somewhere on the internet by clicking the little "tree" icon and inserting the url. :-)

I went over to your blog and that's a picture that's worth seeing. :-)

Coffee Guide

Kylie — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:48:02 -0500

Thanks for the feedback! Maybe I'll expand it at the end of the week if I have the time. I didn't write about Melanges, after all....

Great Post!

I didn't know all of these things before and this is a nice little reference guide. I saved it to del.icio.us and even added a new "coffee" category! Thanks Kylie! : )

I switched to decaf last August, but I still love the stuff....

Great post!

I knew some of this, but definitely not all of it.

I have a Cuisinart Grind and Brew and good coffee beans is one thing I splurge on all the time. I just have to have good coffee to start the morning.

Is this informative?

Kylie — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 12:25:50 -0500

Or did you already know all of this? Let me know!

I know you didn't write that to make me feel old!

Now look at THAT intersection of life - sounds like you were in elem school in DC while I was in college in DC - and we both suffered through less than Billy's best!

Have a great holiday everyone - no matter what music you're listening to (Little Drummer Boy makes me cry, though not the version by David Bowie).

Hey! New songs (to me).

Hey! New songs (to me). Cool.

Your Pop Culture Librarian also writes almost daily at I, Asshole.

Catholic or not, it's just a horrible song.

The only non-Catholic education I've had (including graduate school) was my four-year university. Still, not Billy's shining hour, and I've only met one Catholic person named Virginia in my whole life, so even the name he screams out throughout the whole song is weird. I can see why the girls were air guitaring or drunkenly singing, because there's nothing that builds some kind of odd solidarity like shared religious schooling (And although I don't practice Catholicism at all now, much to my grandmother's distress, I didn't hate it, not at all, so I bust that stereotype as well.)

Fun fact: a huge group of concerned parish members banded together in the DC area to protest the song when I was in elementary school, due to its (I guess) trash talk about confirmation and Billy's wanting Virginia to just go ahead and get it over with and make him her first. They also probably didn't like the line "You didn't count on me/when you were counting on your rosary" ;) I don't either I admit, but again because it's just...kinda silly.

And yet I'll scream along with "drink your gin and tonica" and like it. So it really is a crap shoot.

nope, not offended.

Not only do I love the Sandler Hanukkah song, but I'm very fond of that South Park song "A Lonely Jew on Christmas" and also the new one that's making the rounds on YouTube this year, "Chinese Food on Christmas" (too lazy to link but it's easy to find.) I"m not crazy about the Hasid-picking-up-the-penny scene in the video for that one, but the song itself is really funny.
