Sophie Says Sooth (2002.10.07): "It's also possible that the chickens here are not on a mission of any sort. Perhaps the authorities on their home planet are using the Earth and some kind of interstellar prison colony and dumped spaceships full of chickens here as punishment for their crimes against chickendom."
Matriculation Reloaded (2002.10.06): "Since I have yet to finish the Research Methods class, I'm looking at this questionnaire as the control case for an experiment that asks what effect two years of the Wisconsin Method will have on me; if I write a questionnaire for my thesis that's markedly different from this one, I guess I'll have been substantially changed."
Sophie Says Sooth (2002.09.30): "And, don't take this the wrong way, but there is no way you're going to make anyone believe that you are a woman if you're built like a man. You're gong to need to add curves to your hips and butt and get yourself a set of nice breasts. You're also going to need to learn to act like a woman."
Juliana Hatfield / Gold Stars 1992-2002: "As interesting and important as it is, though, I never would have bought it had I not found a copy for $10 at a used record store called Nuggets in Boston. I have all of Juliana's solo records, which means I have all the would-be hits including here."
Transmetropolitan: Back on the Street: "Spider Jerusalem, despite generally coming off as a PCP-addicted version of Daffy Duck, is a very deep character in terms of moral core and values. Such is the case when Spider lashes out at the womanizing leader of the Transient community regarding his abuse of authority over the Transients and his habit of knocking up his female followers."
Kay Hanley / Cherry Marmalade: "When the tenth track, 'Galapagos,' came on, I nearly tuned the road out entirely. It's one of those tracks that comes by once every few years, saying exactly what your inner siren is trying to express at exactly the right time; for me, the last one was Juliana's 'Choose Drugs' in the spring of 2000."
San Diego Comic-con 2002: Part 1: "A lot of it sounded like standard conspiracy theory bullshit; I would like to believe him about the income taxes, though. Apparently it has something to do with the improper ratification of the 16th Amendment and taxing our privilege of earning money."

I'm bumping this week's Matriculation Reloaded to tomorrow because I've been sick and unwriterly all day. Watch for it mid-day, with Sophie to follow. posted at 22:45
