Remember when I was sarcastic about Anne Rice's supposed return to faith?

This is a conversion story on the level of Augustine," said Christian columnist David Kuo, a former aide to President Bush who was the deputy director of the White House's Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives. "Anne Rice was a daughter of darkness."

Dbya has a talent for personnel, no doubt ;)

The whole country does. (We might be excused for the first time, but we re-hired him for another 4 years of dimness if not "darkness.")

I think he must be refering to St Augestine, FL. They've converted hotels there into historic time-shares, and recieved some nice tax breaks.

Well, as I said somewhere else, look at the alternative. The only excuse to elect Bush was that the alternative was Kerry. And the only excuse to elect Kerry was that the alternative was Bush. "Don't vote for the lying hypocrite, vote for the oil-industry idiot." Or vice versa.

Use them. Use them. Having read some of her A.R. Roquelaure pornography, I would myself go pretty far in the use of descriptives.

Grow up at 64? Not all that likely. Shut up? Not until she grows up. I guess our sole hope is to wait till she meets the Final Interviewer.

Nice tax break rules. Even if it's not on the level with St Augustine :)

Dehumanization of Sleeping Bauty? Did the dwarves all, so to speak, enjoyed the Beaty when she was magically asleep?
On the second though, I don't really want to know.

Er, I am surprised to find that you seem to confuse Sleeping Beauty with Snow-White and the Seven Dwarves. There are no dwarves in Sleeping Beauty, only a Prince - which, I regret to say, is part of Rice/Roquelaure's sexual opium nightmare.

Thank you, it's indeed enough :(

Argh, indeed, stupid confusion. But truth to be told, I wouldn't enjoy sado-maso retelling of any of them.
