Just want to say here that my brother is a diehard Randian. Because of this, I've read the monstrosities that are Atlas Shrugged, the fountainhead, the New Intellectual essay collection, and Anthem. I find Mark Twain to be the proper refutation of Ayn Rand and Libertarianism.
"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers
On a less serious but equally important note to sane people this show will be missed. This season flew by quicker than all the rest and there's so much story left to tell that can't be told in one last episode. I'm totally bummed by the fact that the show is ending next week.
I'm several seasons behind but I intend to pick it back up at some point. Feels like if nothing else I've missed many great boobs at this point.

I think a lot of people get put off by the instructions, but this guy has been posting regularly the past few days and the HITs really are quick to do once you get the hang of it. Plus he's a really nice guy and great communicator if you have any questions.
