The internet is for porn!

I'd heard many, many good things about Avenue Q, many of them from people on LJ. Having now been to see it? Opinion of this noted cynic: 2 thumbs up! Seriously, it's sharp, well observed, it has puppet sex and much much silliness. freddiefraggles had organised for us to go see it at the Noel Coward in the West End, and it was indeed great fun. I understand that it's currently on tour in the States as well; if you get a chance, go watch, definitely worth the effort. For those greater cynics who don't believe me, here's a clip I found on YouTube, dodgy recording of what appears to be a not-so-good production, but you still get the basic point:

Had been due to go on to Camden to enjoy a night out with nearly_everyone, but unfortunately the minor cold I've been resisting all week had me in a semi-comatose heap in the pub, so snapesbabe suggestedordered me home for some Lemsip and sleep. Hope those of you that have gone on have fun, thx Miss Freddie for organising it, and, well, I'm going to collapse now; I've had a really good week for the most part.

Oh yeah, a belated Happy Birthday to paulatpingu and an on-time one for indiana_george

Justification of theories

You're A Theory of Justice!
by John Rawls

In the beginning, you lived in a town. The town had many problems! Rather than moving, you decided to come up with the idea for the best town ever. Going all the way back to the original position, you created the idea for the best town ever! Lo and behold, the best town ever looked almost identical to the town you lived in. You decided to stay in the town. Now you resent people mistaking your refined thought experiments for "the wall of stupidity" in high school debate rounds.

And yes, the code output for the quiz is so awful it's really awful, so I cleaned it a lot. Still, beats Ulysses. Nice that it's a book I a) own and b) like.
