It's like Bridget Jones' Diary, but with a super-powered vigilante.

What the hell is that thing anyway?

What the hell is that thing anyway?

It's like a big purple aloe vera plant spliced with an octopus. The plant - and I use that word loosely - is planted in a big pot on a dias in the hallway outside my office. Thick, serated, tentacle-like leaves reach up from its cabbage-like "head." I spend the better part of an hour online looking at different types of exotic plants, but I don't find it. One gets the distinct impression that it comes alive at night.

I should figure out some way to get it identified. All the plants on this floor are weird "ornamental" exotics.

What if they're aliens? Quentin, Clarke, and Bradbury - they could be aliens, and these are alien plants that they keep around to make them feel at home.

Yeah, okay, that's lame. But really, what the hell is that thing anyway?

Thank you Toenail for the good advice, and thank you Kid Hollywood, O Master of HTML, for the link to Shiny Disco Balls. I love that song! Maybe not so much when I'm fighting evil, but it's good for patrol and shit.

Peace out and Merry X-Mas.

I agree! I agree with all of you, particularly sticks; what you said makes perfect sense, my man-not gay. Peace.
