He missed. He dropped just short of me, his little hands clawing at my shoulders, and then caught the full impact of his fall with his upper jaw on the edge of the bench. Blood? Oh yes. Plenty of that. His left-side upper incisor was canted about forty-five degrees forward, and the tooth to the left of that was pushed about twenty degrees backward. This rearrangement left a gaping open wound behind the incisor, and it was this hole through which most of the blood was coming. So, now he looks English. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/1/23/211630/410 There are no spoilers in the body copy. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/1/21/153147/794 Sokath, his eyes uncovered! http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/1/10/16643/3550 Why do people hire experts and then ignore their advice? Further: is the condition treatable with medication, patient explanations and/or violence? http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2007/11/25/134654/47 Doing laundry at my house is like shovelling coal. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2007/11/20/155136/28 I continue to surprise myself by failing to expire or spontaneously combust. Details beneath the fold. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2007/10/6/133632/920 My colleague and I carpool, and are thereby single-handedly saving the world. Suck it, sinners. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2007/9/9/17425/29414 Capgras Syndrome causes its victims to believe, in moments or as marathons, that people they know and love have been replaced by evil alien replicons from beyond the moon, identical to the originals in every respect save the intuited fact that they are, in truth, imposters. People who suffer from Capgras are crazy, like Super Mario's brother Luigi. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2007/8/26/9935/38939 Team CBB is just moments from rushing out the door for SciFi Con Day III, but a smattering of Littlestar's photos from Days I and II are below the fold. I don't have time for captioning so I'll just let the photos speak for themselves for the most part. Highlights include Popsicle with the stormtroopers; the awesome, stunned expression on Isosceles Cat's face after checking out He-Man; and me getting a hug from the Sexual Harassment Panda. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2007/8/23/151521/638 For the past year or so I've been writing for a local rural newspaper. My latest contribution, however, has been rejected on the grounds that the subject matter might be "too upsetting" for the sensitive people of our town. Judge for yourself:
