One time I tried to draw the Jub-Jub Bird, but it looked like Big Bird on acid

Saw Alice in Wonderland today, and it was pretty good.  Not astoundingly great, but worth seeing in the theatre.  But there was one thing that bugged me: they kept referring to the monster as "the Jabberwocky."  Am I crazy or should it be "Jabberwock"?  "Jabberwocky" is the name of the poem, as in "of or relating to the Jabberwock."  The creature is called "the Jabberwock" twice in the text.  That is its name.  Otherwise, it's like spying the bird from Poe's poem and saying, "Look!  It's the The Raven!"

SOMEBODY BACK ME UP HERE.  LET'S WRITE A MILDLY DISPLEASED LETTER.

Miscellany, etc.

So many epic pintofest  fics to read.  Why so awesome, guys?  Here, have some random linkses:

Deconstruction of Lady Gaga's latest video.  I can't tell if all the Warhol comparisons are tongue-in-cheek or not.

Today's XKCD comic re: Porn for Women.  The mouseover text is also made of win -- just mentally substitute "Enterprise" for "Galactica"

An e-card I'm dying to send to somebody; I just don't know who.

I started reading The Somnambulist by Jonathan Barnes today, and I've already discovered two new words that I've never even heard before:
bibulous -- fond of or addicted to drink; absorbent, spongy
oleaginous -- oily; unctuous, fawning, smarmy

Bonus points for anyone who can work them into casual conversation this week!
