... ferocity, snarling his cleversocial commentaries and bitter relationship analysis with voice-cracking intensity interspersed with crowd banter. Then Carl emerged, nerves visibly jangling, and played a set that verged on the chaotic. Full of charm, engagingly spontaneous (there was a set-list but seemingly it was unreadable), smattered with chat that only the most discerning members of the ...
... #1: The Untouchable Artists The night's first performer, 28-year-old entertainer Jackie Tohn from New York City, took a stab at Elvis Presley's "A Little Less Conversation." Her performance verged on annoying, and her high energy level just made everything seem overdone - sort of like a disappointing present (say, boring socks) that's hidden in beautifully wrapped boxed. 20-year-old Casey ...
...warm embrace of the water. "Should've said." Sirius paused in his task of biting a hot trail down Remus' shoulder. "I should've told you when I realised?" he asked in an ironic tone that verged on bitter, "The morning after Snape's moonlit --" Instinctively Remus shoved Sirius backwards, and he stumbled, almost going under. "I'm an idiot," Sirius said quietly, "I know that. I can't fix things...
... possible in a culture of pervasive inequality. He talked about Eve Ensler's work to bring the world's attention to rape by militias in the Congo. His voicecracked and trailed off as he verged on tears. And unlike what we sometimes see, he didn't other the continent of Africa, but contextualized sexual violence as something that happens everywhere, at very high rates, including in the West where ...
... knew me best and who saw how well I functioned to understand how bad it was. More than once, I heard, I think youre overstating the case. But I knew I wasnt. I was in pain that verged on being physical. I really was desperate for the feeling to end, and very frustrated that medications that were so effective for so many people I knew were not helping me. I eventually tried to put the depression ...
its funny how things change... i admit it -- for so long i've been...not scornful (though it verged on it sometimes) but certainly disappointed in the disappearing-couple-friend. you know who they are -- everyone's got them -- those people who are awesome mates and then they hook up w/ a partner and *whoosh*, they've vanished. not never to be seen again or anything, but to be seen with ...
..., the first of several pieces detailing a meeting some animators and I attendedfour years back at Dreamworks. Their hiring process, at least for this particular job verged on the bizarre. http://www.ifanboy.com/content/articles/200_words_with_paul_dini__29_-_there_will_be_sandwiches__part_one Also, my Dinicartoons imprint with Top Cow is slowly but surely getting up and running.

It felt, I don't know, caperesque. Can I say that? Back in the good old days, it would be like watching all the incredible outlandish stuff that happened on Alias and really NOT believing it. And boy was I...
... nearly conquered our will to do anything else that day. I believe the next thing we did was the boomerang (Boomerang, you DO always come back!) If that is in fact what it was called and I believe my expressionverged on o_O and TT-TT. I had forgotten how much I ha... erm... LOVE heights. Just kidding, I really do enjoy those but.... I have to work up to them. We also went on... I think it is ...
... animation geek-speak we headed around to a nearby pub to continue. On Saturday at the Prince Charles theatre purplegril and I went to see "There Will Be Blood", which was damned good. Daniel Day-Lewis verged on caricature at times when most of the actors played very straight roles, but the preacher also had his moments.
