Here's a random thought. I saw Battlestar Galactica's Katee Sackhoff (so hot) on Attack Of The Show last year, and during the interview she said the phrase "Could you imagine?" at least 6 times. As in:

Kevin: "What if you and asterisk8 had marathon sex for 10 straight hours?"
Katee: "Oh my god, could you imagine?"

For some reason, she made me hate that phrase. Since then, I hear it ev-ery-where. I never realized how overused it is in casual conversation. I just heard Anthony Bourdain use it on tonight's No Reservations. It's a stupid saying*. "Could you imagine?" Yes. You are using that phrase in response to something I just dreamed up and said out loud, so yes, I can imagine. And I've met girls like Katee that follow up practically everything they hear with, "Oh my god, could you imagine?" As if every single thing you say is borderline impossible.

So that's my random thought.

 

*Almost as idiotic as "every now and again".

Irregardless, Starbuck is for sure sexy

Reading Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

How is it? PKD is the one author I'm always meaning to read, but never do.

It's no Blade Runner, but it has it's moments.

I read this last summer (after finally seeing BR) and I concur.  I've heard, however, that Dick has better books anyway.

EDIT: I've read about half of Vonnegut's book, he's my favorite author, hands down.  Only Tolkien comes close.
