hello! yoshi

Paul Newman dies at 83 @ CNN.com When Meesh told me this morning, I couldn’t believe it. Wasn’t he immortal or something like that? I’d swear he was the one who made a deal with the devil or something. I’m just so saddened that he’s gone. I think it’s a lot like what cybr was saying once. He pretty much said we must be getting old because everyone we know is passing away. So sad.

I know a majority of my readers are probably not familiar with Kim Harrison, who I met when I went down to Portland. In her novels, she tells the story of the “Turn” which was when the supernatural creatures came “out of the closet” (so to speak) and announced that they were not in fact myth, but rather real. The cause of the Turn were some genetically enhanced tomatoes that became poisonous to humans, but not to witches and other supernatural creatures. Hence the “coming out of the closet”.

With all the hoopla with tomatoes in the news today, it really makes me wonder if Kim knew that eventually this day would come. Now everyone is holding the tomatoes and making sure everything is safe before serving them. How crazy is this?
