The Stars and the Cookie Jar

I have no answer to any of these questions, but I do wish I could get to talk to you more. I miss you. *hugs*

1) Because despite apparent evidence to the contrary, Winter still exists, and will rear its ugly head once every few weeks until March. Just to be a bitch.

2) Because if it went in an eight direction it would create a tear in space-time, sucking all of the DC area into a parallel universe wherein the sky is purple, people have six fingers, and Celine Dion is Queen Overlord of the Universe.

3) If the lady had taken the next stop off of the train, the dog would've pooped all over her shoes. Hence, your stop. Had she confined him to one section of the escalator, he would've bitten her ankles. He's not a very well trained dog, yet.

4) Right, Celine Dion being Queen Overlord of the Universe would make anybody miss a bus by one minute.

5) Because your book hasn't enough magic in it. Try adding a beanstalk with a super powerful giant at the top, who when he dies spews plot devices and literary fragments all over the land. And provides food for the hungry for years to come.

6) Because "B" looks nothing like "G" and "y" and "d" can never get along.

7) It can be, you just need to have breakfast at better times of the day. Like 3PM. Breakfast at 3PM makes everything legal to eat. Except dead giant, but that's mostly b/c it's really tough to cook them right, so they're best left stewed overnight and eaten before 10AM.

8) Because it's a one eyed one toed flying purple people eater. If it were the day of the week, it would look completely different. Not to mention it wouldn't have eaten your favorite shirt.

Why isn't a Hershey Kiss an acceptable breakfast choice?

It is, I think, on a day like this one . . .

I'm sorta glad it's not. I haven't yet read Anansi Boys, so I can't comment much, but I thought American Gods was brilliantly original but also huge and sprawling and needed a few more years to be pruned properly.
