    Edward has previously commented that his professional conversations are dominated by the need to keep secrets and the need to keep people happy. 

    How odd is it to discover Tedd is happy if Edward doesn't keep secrets?  

     . . . . . 

    So how long has Tedd been an Unpaid Intern for the agency?

    Of course, if Tedd has been producing useful results for the agency without getting paid why should they start paying Tedd at all?

    Every day, parents do incredible things for their children the kids will never know or understand (at least, not until they become parents).  And some parents find ways to do even more.

     . . . . .

    Edward is using his best tricks to talk about Tedd.  Too bad he was not able to use this ability and communicate WITH Tedd.

     . . . . .

    I wish there was more detail to the dialogue with Assistant Director Liefeld.  I need new techniques to argue with my boss.

    It is possile for bacon to be too greasy and salty.

    I don't recall ever being in the path of totality.  Every partial I've seen has been obscured by clouds.  And I only saw an annular once where the dark disk & bright ring were fully apparent to me.

    But as I often work at night, I have seen several Lunar eclipses.  Many people insist the moon takes on the colour of blood at these events. The moon usually looks copper coloured to me.

    Am I looking at the wrong satilite?

    The first problem is that Nanase knows Ashley finds Susan cool.  And while Nanase likes and respects Susan, she does not think Ms Pompoms is cooler than herself. 

    The second problem is that Ashley does indeed think Nanase is cool, but awkward and adorkable factors have always overwhelmed Ashley's reaction whenever a "That's So Cool" response would normally have been appropriate. 

    And finally, no attempt to make yourself look cool will produce the desired result.  No matter how cool you actually are, a staged attempt to look cool usually looks about as realistic as Commodus defeating gladiators in the Flavian Ampitheatre.

    Kevin is being entirely reasonable.

    Ashley's mind is in the gutter.  And a strange thought occurs to me.

    Ashley didn't have a neighborhood Tedd while she was growing up.

    In Royal courts, the Jester or fool would obnoxiously laugh, cry, swoon, sigh, or express whatever emotion the moarch & nobility were feeling in an exaggerated manner.  This allowed the aristocrats to stoicly maintain the stiff upper lip while somone else emoted for them.  

    Tedd was a self identified pervert.  Not at all shy about fantasies & ideas regarding human sexuallity.  Later freely using alien tech & magic for voyueristic purposes on any one in range.  

    Tedd was Moperville's perverted jester.  If some girl's shorts ripped in gym, the usual rude reactions could be replaced with "what would Tedd do".

    Ashley, being new to Moperville, is stil trying to carry her own erotic baggage.

    World conquering Tedd was the victim of a prophesv regarding his parents that was most umpleasant.  They abandond the infant, but he was found and raised without knowing his parents or the prophesy . . . .  

     

    Lord Tedd as Teddipus Rex?  He has the Black Hole Eyes . . . .

    The historic capture of Sevastapol & Crimea were essental in allowing late Tsarist and early Soviet Russia to regard themselves as a world naval and trading power.

    When Kruschev transfered Crimea to Ukraine, more than a few Russians comforted themselves with the thought that everything Soviet was Russian.

    The collapse of the USSR left a lot of people thinking that Crimea had been stolen.

    A skillful diplomat in power might have found a peaceful solution to a populist crisis.

    Vladimir Putin had other ideas . . . .

     

    I very much fear those ideas include "If I can't have it, no one can have it!"
