An Imagined Girls Night With Katniss Everdeen, Hermione Granger, Bella Swan And Buffy Summers. In celebration of the release of The Hunger Games in theaters, I figured there was no better way to welcome Katniss Everdeen to the pantheon of pop culture heroines, than by imagining what it would be like to be a fly on the wall during Girls Night. Clearly, Carrie Bradshaw was not invited. Buffy: Hi girls! Thanks for joining me for this Heroines of Pop Culture ladies night. Sookie called to say she’s sad she couldn’t make it. Bella: I only drink red.

Hermione: I’ll have some! Katniss: You’re willing to feed me something?!?!? Buffy: Well, we’re fresh out of those… Bella: Got any blood? Buffy: You know who you’re asking, right? Katniss: Moving on… So, how was everyone’s week? Hermione: Oh, same old. Buffy: I was saving the world. Katniss: I was also saving the world! Bella: I jumped off a cliff to get the attention of my ex-boyfriend. Buffy: I’m sorry, what? Bella: Well, he broke up with me, and I became all sad and stuff and it was the worst. Katniss: And then you decided to kill yourself? The Very Secret Diaries. Welcome! Here you may find the brilliant "Very Secret Diary" series by the wonderful Cassandra Claire. These are also published in her LiveJournal, but she was kind enough to agree to let your humble servant here publish them here. Enjoy! And do be sure to check out her LiveJournal.

. ~ Warning! These are also archived here. The Two Towers Aragorn, Son of Arathorn, Part 2TheodenLegolas, Part 2. Grimm's Fairy Tales. This book contains 209 tales collected by the brothers Grimm. The exact print source is unknown. The etext appears to be based on the translation by Margaret Hunt called Grimm's Household Tales, but it is not identical to her edition. (Some of the translations are slightly different, the arrangement also differs, and the Grimm's scholarly notes are not included.) The etext received by the Universal Library did not include story titles. Note that these tales are presented more or less as the Grimms collected and edited them (and as Hunt saw fit to translate them). NEW: There is now a more accurate version of the Hunt translation posted by William Barker. Medieval Castle History, Design of Medieval Castles, Haunted Castles: www.medieval-castle.com.
