Lore wrote several FAQKs for his now-deceased humor magazine Brunching Shuttlecocks. They started with his Vampire: The Masquerade FAQK, so one presumes it was meant there to be all gothick, though after the subjects diverged, he responded to a questioning reader that it stood for "Frequently Asked Questions, Kevin".

I have to add my words of sympathy. I'm a male with fibromyalgia and thus have somewhat tenuous access to serious pain relief, but I can't imagine what it would be for me to lose a medication so vital to functioning.

I'll write my (Oregon) congressmen on this - thanks to those above who've shared their letters. And best of luck, Teresa, Xopher - may fate swing back around.

Referring back a ways to Paula Lieberman's comment -- "American Jerusalem" was written by Rod MacDonald, though I'm only familar with the cover by Garnet Rogers on his "The Outside Track".

(Garnet was in the band of his better-known brother, the late Stan Rogers, but is quite a fine musician and singer in his own right. Have a listen, if you can possibly do so, to "Summer Lightning" on the album of the same name.)

I just now got a cafepress store in order to get a Great Huge Garamond W shirt. I put nielsenhayden in as my referrer, so if any of these sell, you could be receiving literally nickels in bonuses. I mostly link to the store here to check that you have no moral stance against giant Garamond Ws.

For some reason I feel compelled to sing "Any old lion / Any old lion / Any any any old lion?"

von Doom went to State University mostly because it was the only place handing out scholarships for looking-into-hell-dimensions engineering. He didn't become king of Latveria until after he'd built his armor.
