i don't hate you, boy, i just want to save you

What was that last night, Wild? Jonas Brodin is doing an amazing job as a small-ish, young defenseman, and Charlie Coyle had a decent night for his home debut, but. What. Seriously. OTOH... DEVILS. :)

Morning random:

a) Writing "I suck at summaries" anywhere in your summary pretty much guarantees that I am never going to click the link to your fic. Even more so if it's a work in progress.

b) BBC News reported this morning on a prisoner who concealed his mobile phone in his rectum. Guards became suspicious when a ring tone was heard during a search of his cell. Ow.

c) It is Friday. Paper is submitted. Book club (ie, wine drinking with book discussion as an excuse) tonight. HAPPY WEEKEND!

I'm totally in agreement that avoiding WsIP with "I suck at summaries" warnings is a wise move - because if the writer sucks at summaries, they probably also suck at stories.

I read item b) and cringed - even my old school flip phone wouldn't be fun to insert - but if one *was* to try that, doesn't silencing it first make sense?

enjoy the weekend!
