Orwell


Shopgirlove could gush for days about him. His essay on the toad! But for most, he is always that Big Brother guy, or the other Big Brother guy, depending on how much tv you watch. (Season 8 was a doozy.) But the other Big Brother is getting even scarier. Or funnier, depending on the mood you're in. Shopgirlove was in a pretty good mood. She was gladdened by reports that Dextre's plugged in. That led her to wondering if robots "dream of electric sheep." This, in due course, led her to a disturbing story about just how scary Big Brother can get. Good-mood-be-gone! There's a movie--Tilda Swinton, you rock! And a donation box. At the end of the day, though, it's business as usual.
