The Unforgiving Minute
Some greater interest was at stake; some mightier cause than ever yet the sword had pleaded, or trumpet had proclaimed.
Thomas De Quincey

Good weekend? Good weekend.

  • Went to the Michigan Renaissance Festival today. Exciting and interesting things happened. I’m withholding elaboration to prevent jinxing.
  • Season 3 of The Venture Bros. ended tonight. This makes me sad. Henchman 24 died. This also makes me sad. Well, maybe he died. After all, Season 1 ended with the titular (heheh, I said “titular”) characters dying, only to be revived in the first episode of Season 2. Overall it was a damn good season; my only complaint is the near-total absence of Triana Orpheus.
  • Classes start tomorrow. I am, as always, totally unprepared. Not that it’s ever been a problem.
  • Eating a giant prime rib sandwich for lunch, a dinner of unadon and sushi, ice cream for dessert, and a big slab of bumpy cake for a second dessert may have been a tactical error. I can barely move.

  3. The “Christmas present” line/scene took me completely by surprise. I laughed my ass off.
