    You Are Ginger



    Like ginger, you are a total shape shifter.

    You can be sweet, spicy, mellow, or overpowering.

    You are both soothing and unique. You are popular... yet you are often overlooked.

    Okay, I know a lot of people are going to be particpating in the Content Strike: Friday March 21. And I don't mean to come down on the strikeout like it's bad or anything. But I'm not gonna be participating (barring electrical outage or something similar).

    Granted, I think they could've been a lot more forthright about what they were implementing in terms of free journals. Then again, these are Russians we're talking about. Being upfront about it would've been a lot better, a lot more honest, and presented a strong image of "we may make changes, but they will be clear and set." This 'trying to hide it' nonsense just makes it seem like it's possible to reverse it.

    Still, I think they have the right to run their business according to an established business model, ie. paid accounts get no ads. LJ might be "driven by user created content," but it doesn't receive revenue by it.

    Good news: Finishing my part of a collaboration.

    Bad news: Having to wait for the other part of the collaboration. Curse you, real life!

    Good news: That means I have a little time for my own stuff.

    Bad news: That means I have a little time for my own stuff. *stares at stack of unfinished fic*

    Texas man gets 60 years for 10th DWI
    GEORGETOWN, Texas - A Texas man has been sentenced to 60 years in prison for his 10th conviction of driving while intoxicated since 1979.

    Prosecutors say 53-year-old Anthony Lynn Falco of Taylor waived his right to a jury trial and pleaded not guilty to the felony charge over the June 22 traffic stop.

    A statement Tuesday from the Williamson County prosecutor says tests showed Falco's blood alcohol content was 0.17 percent, more than twice the legal limit for driving in Texas.

    Prosecutor John Bradley says Falco had nine prior DWI convictions and served prison terms from five to 10 years. He also had convictions for theft, family violence assault and forgery.

    When we say don't drink and drive, we fuckin' mean it.
