    Alison,

    Maybe next time a bib?!

    Mar 10, 2007

  • Alison

    Yes, when consuming brains, it is always advisable to wear a bib. Lesson learned (and how!).

    Welcome aboard Alison, and thank you for taking the time to dress so nicely for your Crimespace debut.

    Oh, I don't know. Might look good with mustard. The kind with the little seeds, for added texture.

  • Alison

    Fantastic idea! The next time I dress up like a zombie, I'll have to remember to add mustard into my Karo syrup mixture. For texture.

    I think the dried blood sets of her non-pulsing jugular just beautifully.

    One day, Jen will spell well.

    Then you will know, she is a Pod Jen.

    That is one fine profile pic, Alison. Very David Lynch of you! I think a bib would spoil the effect, though. Unless you were going for that little-zombie-Dutch-girl-in-pearls look.

    Those portable stain sticks will take that red right out.

    Are you the Alison from Bouchercon? Ah, the time we had cutting up those bodies ...

    That's a for the federal folks watching this space.

    I took a course in college that was "Dickens & Eliot" that culminated in a "Bleak House" vs. "Middlemarch" Battle Royale; in the end, we agreed that they should team up and fight crime.

    How did you do that with George Clooney? Was that in the London wax museum?

    Mar 20, 2007

  • Alison

    It was in Vegas. And as for my beau being made of wax ... well, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. I can neither confirm nor deny rumors of whether I married the actual George Clooney, or just a lifelike replica.

    Mar 20, 2007

  • Sean Chercover

    George Clooney (or a lifelike replica) should consider himself lucky...

    Everyone in my life rollerskates. Everyone.

    I just spend ten minutes trying to figure out why the comments had the 21st on them.

    "Strange. My computer clock is the 20th."

    I looked up. "My calander is the 20th."

    Furrowed brow followed by smack to the forehead.

    "More coffee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
