Chocolates and love and Superman and genocidal dictators, oh, and iced tea...

...or LJ will inconveniently die, and then I'll be too drunk busy for the rest of the weekend to post!

I *have* to say before I forget a big huge THANK YOU to the very sweet [personal profile] blankbadge who sent me a delightful care package with a shiny new comic trade for something I haven't read *and* chocolates! In a Halloween bag! Hearts on you... it arrived in the middle of a shitty couple of days at work so it really truly made my day. (I told [personal profile] buddleia I was leaving her for you, but she pointed out that I would miss sex as neither you nor I are gay. So I'll stick with her for the time being. But you and I can secretly swap chocolates and comics, kay?)

Busy weekend! But first: HEADLINES WE WOULD LIKE SEE:

Superman frees Saddam in shock prison break!

In a press release issued through the Justice League, Supes was quoted as saying "Sure, he's a monster. He's an evil man who has done terrible things. But in all good conscience I cannot condone murder even if it is State-approved. As humans, we must find a better way..."

Boy, I bet Saddam is sure bitter about having the death penalty in Iraq right now, huh? I bet he's thinking, "damn, I wish I'd abolished that law while I was still in power. I could have said that instead of killing offenders, we should, uh, condemn them to ten years worth of public gardening and landscaping! Yes, to improve traffic islands. With a break on alternate Fridays for a little iced tea. Damn, why didn't I think of that sooner?"

I'm glad it cheered you up :-)
The chocolates are a game, chocolate roulette. You take turns eating them with someone and one is chilli. I forget whether it said it on the bag so I figured I should tell you (hopefully not too late).

:-D Excellent. You'll have to let me know if you like Finder.

I say force Saddam to figure out how to recreate the hanging gardens! At least then when he goes out, there'll be something good on his track record.
