You are the Golden Rule! You presume that the
legislature would not want to apply the
statute to achieve an unreasonable or absurd
result inconsistent with its purpose. It’s
not what’s on the surface that matters for
you, and you try to do what’s best in any
given situation. You’re a bit unpredictable,
but you don’t mind.
Which Canon of Statutory Construction are You?

Octavia Butler, prominent science fiction author, dies at 58
The Seattle Times: Local News: Octavia Butler, prominent science fiction author, dies at 58:
Octavia E. Butler, the first black woman to gain national prominence as a science fiction writer, died after falling and striking her head on the cobbled walkway outside her home, a close friend said Sunday. She was 58.
Butler was found outside her home in the north Seattle suburb of Lake Forest Park on Friday. She had suffered from high blood pressure and heart trouble and could only take a few steps without stopping for breath, said Leslie Howle, who knew Butler for two decades and works at the Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame in Seattle.

After you die… Reincarnated as Yourself
After death, you will be reborn again as yourself. You will live the same life, unbeknownst to you. However, you will have vivid moments of déjà vu, as you probably have now.

I’m Impressed too
I’m Impressed:
Usually I experience a movie trailer as a good reason not to see the movie: either the trailer is awful, or it has all the best parts, or it has all the plot, so why bother. (Or it has icky voice-overs by that deep-voiced guy who does all the voice overs, or the same intensifying chorus that they use for effect in so many action movies and expect me to react to in a Pavlovian fashion.)
But the trailer for ‘A Scanner Darkly’ not only has none of these, but it makes me want to see the movie.

this looks like it could be a great movie
