The Ministry of Reshelving

Yeah, so this probably won't appeal to the political conservatives out there, so you have been fairly warned.

A great lady, Jane, and her brand new groom, Kiyash, have started The Ministry of Reshelving.  It involves politely reshelving the book 1984 by George Orwell in bookstores around the world.  There are rules to ensure being polite and there are cards and bookmarks to print out to enable being as polite as possible.

It's ingenious!

Lucy!!  She is so fricking beautiful.  Can you believe I actually helped save her life??  She is awesome.  And in the background you can see Celine (banshee) and HHM (HitsHerMark).

That is the article in today's cNet about it.

You may note that Patricia Pizer was the Lead Game Designer.  She asked to specifically speak with me on the phone last night when I called Shad0 at the bar.  I had no idea who she was, but she identified herself as Patricia aka Small Favors/Lucky.  *gasp*  Are you SER-EE-US??  I was in such awe that the conversation is almost a blur to me.  She had heard I was the one responsible for sending Shad0 out to find Corazon's memorial.  I guess Patricia was the one who set up the memorial and was worried because it was taking us so long to figure out to look for it.  So she wanted to personally thank me and tell me how grateful she was.  Hah!  I was so stoked.  Me.  She asked to speak to me.  *content sigh*

They say there is no ARG love like your first ARG.

Oh!  And one of the best parts......  Here is video of Lucy actually showing up to the wake yesterday.  Did I mention yet just how cool Lucy is?

And if you want to know the entire story about why Lucy's life was in danger and how my friends and I helped save her life, you can go to Last Call Poker.

One more picture of Lucy, just because you can never see too many pictures of her.  You can also see a bit of Silverkun, jamesi and imbri in the background.

This guy is a new friend of mine.  He has been teaching me how to play poker.  He is quite the character!

My favorite line of his:  I have attention surplus disorder.

LMAO

He also happens to be a Mensa genius.  *sigh*  Smart people rock.

This is from Tamara and does a great job of describing to Protestants how Orthodox Christians feel about praying *to* Saints:

If we can ask each other to pray for us, why not those who have already made it to the Throne of God? Orthodox believe that those who die are still alive in the presense of God and therefore still have an audience with him. Asking Triumphant Saints to pray for us is not really any different than asking Militant Saints to pray for us--we are all apart of the Church Universal!!
