My memory sucks, so I'm passing the annoyance on to you. '.'
I seem to remember watching an anime (I think) recently where one character told another "You will definitely be all right". And later she'd tell herself "I'll definitely be all right." And the whole thing started seeming kind of weird.
But I can't remember what series it was. >< So, does anyone recognize this? '.'

"Her love is pure. Her intentions are not."

I'm in a slightly goofy mood (which often happens when I'm short on sleep)...

It's been established that many Fen took different names when they headed Up, if only to dodge the 'Daneside law. Some folks are going to pick ...
let's be charitable and say "less than serious" names. Sure, they'll regret it later, but by then they're stuck with whatever names they
chose.

I mentioned one of these people in the writeup of Stellvia Corp. - Oliver Towne manages the
##WHITENOISE## Foundation. ("Oliver Towne?" "Yeah; I'm everywhere!" Which means he might be one of the Julian Friez... but probably
not.)

Julian Friez fits the theme, too, although that was his real name. (Going off on a tangent, by 2014, Stellvia
is probably big enough to hire a Julian or two, but they wouldn't report directly to chief engineer Kohran. They have issues with
female androids, you know...)

Then there's the previously-unmentioned British female Warsie, Judi Knight.

Are there any others? Well, yes, there must be... but can anyone come up with their names?

"Camaraderie, adventure, and steel on steel. The stuff of legend! Right, Boo?"

Has Doug ever considered finding and playing the "local" version of this song to get a general "briefing" on the world he just gated into?
I could see him hearing the song on the radio, and and dropping the tune plugs and having a WTF!! moment as he gets a local history download from "his" point of view.
And then finding out that every world he's visited has a version of "We didn't start the fire".

One of the primary differences between the Left and the Right is their attitude toward the Future. The Radical wants the Future to have gotten here yesterday. The Reactionary wants the Future quietly shot and the corpse buried where no one can find it.

A heads-up for everyone: Peggy and I are going on vacation for about a week starting on Friday the 12th. I don't know if I'll have any Internet access where we're going, but if I do, I will as always try to check in at least once during the week.-- Bob

I remember seeing a fic where Harry pretends to have the Kyubi sealed inside of him (and hilarity ensues) but I can't seem to find it any more... does anyone know what i'm talking about? any pointers to where it is? (is it any good?)
[ETA:] i see that i'm thinking of the same thing that was asked about here
