The implications of technology in some settings can lead to some "interesting" things. (For sufficiently sick definitions of "interesting".)
Settings like Ghost In The Shell and GURPS: Transhuman Space allow for a human consciousness (or ghost) to be placed into a mechanical body of virtually any design.
What about the implications of a legal adult who chooses, for some reason, a 9-year old girl for their new body?
She's a legal adult, so it's conceivably not illegal for her to have sex or to have sex with her.
But does having sex with her make her lover a pedophile?
Is a recording of her having sex child porn?
This matter will be settled law in the world it's part of, but it's speculative in ours.

Shots Fired
Or fireworks.
At midnight I heard two pops.
The timing seemed off for a couple of firecrackers, and a bit loud.
The noises did not repeat so I went back to bed.
It occurs to me, now, that a murderer can get one hell of a head start on law enforcement merely by being a good shot and not firing many rounds. People hear a noise and if it's not repeated, tend to go back to what they were doing before.
I grabbed a gun and checked my doors and peered out the windows. I sure hope I still have a neighbor.
If not, I want to mention, before I forget, that a rusty white Taurus wagon with New York plates was there yesterday and had not been there previously.

Tat Concept
Here's what I was thinking of...
It's a bit of a double meaning...
Rolling a 3 is a critical success in GURPS.
Facing the viewer is 2-2-3... One of my favorite calibers. Can't do 277 or 308 with six siders...

Need New Ink
Because I am a homemaker, I just realized that I can just get all tatted up!
I think three six siders adding up to three on the inside of my right wrist is appropriate for a rabid GURPS GM.

Stages
Back when I was a psych student...
We were covering the stages of sexual arousal.
Excitement
Plateau
Orgasm
Resolution
OR
Wanna
Gonna
Doing
Did
Of course we phrased it a lot more crudely.
The teacher started it though! (Wow that sounds mature, don't it?)
The prof was talking about the hypothalamus and how it controlled the four F's of the human body.
Feeding, fleeing, fighting and reproduction.

Inversion
It must have been something I ate.
I am afraid to look in the mirror for fear that I am inside out from the efforts.

Live Blogging Colonoscopy Prep
July 9, 2007
2:03 PMI have completed stage one. I had my last solid food at about 7:30 last night. Took two generic Dulcolax tabs and went to bed. Since I got up at 5:30 this morn, I have been blasting liquid into the toilet every hour or so.2:22 PM
I have just taken the first of 16 eight ounce glasses of NuLytely. This is supposed to be super colon blow stuff. Make the shit-chute all photogenic and stuff. It came with "flavor" packets. I chose lemon-lime, and it makes it smell like lemon-lime. There is a faint salty flavor and it's just a bit on the gelatinous side; about halfway between egg-white and water. It is not the horrid nastiness I had been led to expect, but who knows if it gets worse from here.
Glass two! Much rumbling from downstairs.2:43 PM
A sip of Gatorade blue Berry flavor after the glass seems to help a lot.
Third one is down, I am getting full. Bleah, I wonder if I can process this shit fast enough to drink a whole gallon in five hours.
3:11 PM
#4 is down! And I got the mail.3:34 PM
Got some dark red-brown bowl filler from it.
FIVE!3:46 PM
Six! Six glasses of uberlaxitive! Bwah ha ha ha!4:01 PM
I think I am getting accustomed to this stuff already, it's just wet now.
That's seven!4:21 PM
Got dark yellow, clear this trip. Not even half finished with the stuff and I am getting near end-game results.
And, yes, I really am going to give a TMI play by play.
That's eight. The last movement resembled nothing more than that green tea that Lipton sells pre-brewed.4:53 PM
Nummers!
Nine! Green BM! Like Surge! Like Lime Jell-O.
5:04 PM
SIGH Ten. This is getting strange. The fluid emanating from my rectum now resembles nothing less than Windex!
5:31 PM
This is where 11 should be. I am slowing down in taking the NuLytely as I spend more time in the shitter.
The Windex color is very freaky.
5:53 PM
Much gurgling as I finish 11. This is beginning to resemble an endurance test.
I am wondering if the whole gallon is really necessary. This stuff comes in one size. That means it's enough for the worst case and way too much for the best case.
I posted here with my experiences, but nothing has shown yet. I am not having near the problems some of the posters there are having.
6:14 PM
I have now drank twelve 8 ounce glasses of this crap. I am getting sick of it.
The gastro had better sing praises about clean and happy my colon is.
6:35 PM
12:45 AM
Thirteen ends the suffering.7:17 PM
The effects are ongoing. The latest BM was back to lime Jell-O green; lots of volume.7:30 PM
Collapse. Pooping this much exhausting!July 10, 2007
12:45 AM
Sprayed Windex.3:30 AM
I am finally empty with one last derisive spurt of Windex like liquid.6:18 AM
I am parched. I was not allowed to eat or drink anything after midnight, since I was sleeping since 7:30 I missed my chance.1:52 PM Final Entry
Huh huh huh, he said entry...
Got in. Can we say worst waiting room arrangement ever? You are required to bring someone who can drive you home, so everyone there will be in a pair. The whole place is set up like everyone is going to be talking to everyone else. Nobody seemed very talkative...
The lady taking my insurance and personal information thought The Lovely Harvey and I were a riot. We were joking a lot to take the edge off. Made a lot of fun about the, "Not responsible for lost or stolen items," sign. I can trust them with my life, but not my watch!
Got taken into the prep room, got my gown, slippers and poofy hat. I refused to put it on, but did not fight the nurse when she insisted and placed it on my head. Got my IV done by the actual anesthesiologist! The nurses couldn't find a vein, he had it located and inserted in less than a minute. ICE COLD IV! My whole arm was freezing.
After soaking up some saline for a bit, they wheeled me into the endoscope room. Wired me for vitals monitoring and gave me the good stuff. I asked, "Am I on the good stuff?" "Yup," she replied. "Prolly going not going to feel anything and then THUD, out!" I said.
DISCONTINUITY
"It's all over sir."
Doc says that the lump I found that started this whole mess was just scar tissue from my anal fissures. He found no polyps or masses. My prostate seems normal. I have severe hemorrhoids, that will prolly need surgery someday, but not today. I also have an unusually long colon, prolly genetic.
Got another appointment on the 25th to get the final word.

Sadness
I was sitting here today thinking.
I went through a lot of effort to stay in touch with a couple of people I knew from Iowa. A few have been kind enough to stay back in touch with me.
I think that zero calls since I moved here is a hint, huh?
CRM, I am looking at you. I stopped by every time I was in Ames to stay in touch. We've sent change-of address and change of contact information every time its changed. We invited you and your wife to our wedding.
You didn't bother to reply even once, did you? Didn't drive the eight whole miles to Nevada to see the wedding.
What I want to know, is what did I do wrong?
All I can think of is that I am a gun owner. Your distancing yourself from me seems to stem directly from my standing up to JS (and winning the debate) over the gun thing. It that it?
If it is, what a demonstration of liberal tolerance! You alienated the only one in the group who dared to be different. Ironically the gun-toting conservative didn't have an issue with your being gay. I guess conservative tolerance is more tolerant.

Idiocy Abounds
Some of my dear readers remember Dumbass and Escapee. They are in the middle of a very messy divorce. They both have blogs. Do I need to fill in the rest?
The son of a friend was beaten near to death Sunday night. He used to be in a gang, he had actually gotten out. The problem with having once been in a gang is the other gangs might not accept your resignation. SIGH. TJ is in a coma, he might not wake up, and if he does there is a high likelyhood that he will no longer be TJ.
By the way, if you are or used to be in a gang, the police do not give a fuck about you. There will be no legal justice done here. But they may have awakened the wrong sleeping giant, TJ's dad is ex-spec forces. I can see this having a happy ending after all.
