Word Shoot and Isabel Allende

Thanks to The Shifted Librarian for pointing out the typing game Word Shoot. I haven't accomplished very much today. It's a good thing the office is quiet.

If you are interested, Isabel Allende was interviewed today on Democracy Now! You can listen to the broadcast for free for the next day or so if you go here. ETA: Allende did a brief reading from her new book, Ines, My Love, and also spoke about the history behind it, since the main character is an historical figure, even if the book is fiction. Then she answered questions about a variety of other things, ranging from the politics of Argentina to American immigration policy.

Isn't it? And it seemed to get much faster at the end. Or maybe I just got slower.

Hey, I found you via davidgallaher1, and we have some similar tastes. I have devoured three seasons of Queer as Folk on DVD. Brian is so hottttt.

Mind if I friend you?

Welcome, lagizma. You are welcome to friend me. :)

SarahF, another LJ user, got me started on Queer as Folk and now I'm addicted.

I'm addicted to the word shoot - I started on easy and barely kept pace!
