The Sky, She Falls

There's the news going around now about how Livejournal's Russian owners laid off half the staff in LA: The Russian Bear Slashes a Social Network. Livejournal twittered about it and released a press release. As posted by beren_writes, news from CNet: LiveJournal deletes 'about a dozen' jobs. So no need to panic.

However, people are backing up their ljs, which is sound practice in any event. I use lj archive (it grabs comments).

But the point of this post on my part is to tell you where you can find me in the unlikely event of a water landing collapse.

All my writing is posted at my website, http://mhalachaiswords.com/writing/. If LJ goes down, I'll make commenting allowed by people who are not logged in, and put up a blog. My other main fic posting locations are Twisting the Hellmouth and Pomme De Sang. I'm also "on the Google" as Mhalachai.

To sum up: Problems. Don't panic. Find me in your local supermarket checkout line.

Rodney McKay, international man of mystery

Help.

Specifically, flist, it's about the parents of Rodney McKay. What do we know about them from canon? Every time I wrack my brain, it's all most likely fandom related. I'm thinking mostly about his mother - do we know anything?

And yes, this does have 97% to do with Physics of the Spin...

Thank you!
