Seth, drain the well. There's a neighbor missing

It is a good thing Ian McKellen followed up his turn in Cold Comfort Farm (1995) with roles as monumentally pop-cultural as Gandalf or Magneto, because otherwise I suspect people would still be accosting him in the street and shouting, "THERE'LL BE NO BUTTER IN HELL!"

. . . Actually, I really hope they still do.

"Drain the well, there's a neighbor missing" is so utterly plausible in my family, I had an eyebrow-raising moment.

I am at work on a Friday. Please bash me repeatedly with hard blunt things to dull the pain.

(I am wearing a lesbian social activism t-shirt, jeans, and Keens, which taken together make me look butch on a stevedore level; I can only hope it pisses the execs off just a little. Hey, you make me wake up at five, you reap what's been sown...)

In closing, mmmm, Ian McKellen. Now I need to google that film.
