I suggest changing it to Jan 16, 2014 now and getting used to the new timeline. Hopefully there won't be too many "I told you so's". |

I've got a serious case of the circus theme song stuck in my head right now!

I just wanted to take a moment to point out... the dictionary.
Irrational Optimists - those who hope for a result despite all evidence to the contrary. Ie, we KNEW we were probably wrong. I also would like to point out that the IOC is an INclusive organization. All Dresden fans are welcome, whether human or penguin. Any statements to the contrary should not be taken as official. And though it may be wrapped up in comedic gold, I'm quite serious about that last part. Let's all try to ensure that our joking around doesn't turn into anything resembling attacks on other members. |

The only real enemies are the Nickelheads. And the Black Council. Um and various denizens of the Nevernever. And vamps. Uh hmmmm. This could be quite the list. Let's just keep it a positive atmosphere here. |

As Supreme, Lady, Madame President of this thread, I say ENOUGH!! Any and all discussion or references, past or present, about the release date of Skin Games is now suspended until I say otherwise. |

Jim Butcher quotes...
.................
A Sidhe lady with deep indigo blue hair had sidled up to Miss Electrical Tape, and the two slid their arms around each other, both staring at me. Something inside me—and I’d be lying if I said that none of it was mine—let out a primal snarl and advised me to drag both of them back to my cave by the hair and do whatever I damned well pleased with them. It was an enormously powerful impulse, something that made me begin to shift my balance, to take a step toward them. I arrested the motion and closed my eyes. “Yeah,” I said. “Yeah, they look great, but that isn’t a fantasy come true, Harry. That’s a wood chipper in Playboy bunny clothing.” ― Jim Butcher, Cold Days ............. Librarian of Trivia, Emeritus |

A bikini is like a barbed wire fence. Protects the property but doesn't obstruct the view.
