Cancer Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Re: The Last Word Yes, another intriguing aspect of the internal consistency of a self-referential structure. (And you've heard of that before somewhere, I'm sure.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AliceTheOwl Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Re: The Last Word Drat. Doesn't even let you anonymously fill it out? That's silly. If it weren't HP-release week and there weren't spoilers floating around (and aggressively being commented in people's journals and communities), I'd enable anonymous comments so people could reply that way. I suppose I'd also accept just a copy-paste with the answers bolded, or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Re: The Last Word More work than it's worth. I'll read the new HP someday, but it's unlikely to be soon. I have no plans to get one, but last time my wife went and got one on release day, and I figure that'll happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you e-mail it to me doesn't mean I have to read it. If we were talking Clockwork Orange-type torture here, I don't think you'd survive my retribution.

Cancer Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Re: The Last Word When Momcat got out of her cell (we're keeping her and the kittens in our bathroom and bedroom), she made a beeline for Siegfried & Felix's dishes. Oddly, when Siegfried came out and discovered her there, he just came up and sniffed her. When she turned her head and growled, he growled back in sort of an obligatory fashion, stopping when she went back to eating. Eventually he finished sniffing and walked away. I hadn't expected that sort of reaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 Re: The Last Word Well, perhaps, but I think Siegfried had decided he didn't like what was left in the dish anyway. The boys are not real enthusiastic about the stuff we've been getting since the poisoned cat food affair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
