isn't this just about the cutest little kid you've ever seen?

i'm not sure if i'm making this dress for the picture or because the dress itself should be delightful... haha (or because my mom asked)

but it's driving me crazy!! it's like trying to cook using a recipe translated (poorly) from Italian... it just isn't making any sense! aaaaa!

okay, sorry... you all don't care about this, i just needed to vent. i've ripped almost the whole thing out now, and it's so sad to see my work sit in a puddle of kinky green thread (kinky as in full of bends)

So, we're still on for paintball tomorrow, looks like things will clear up in time... that being said it will be a bit muddy...

wait, you had a monkey-ectomy and didn't tell anyone it was going to happen??



okay, um... never mind.




i'm kind-of in a euphoric state because I didn't bomb Statistics!! (despite all misgivings, and disastrous thoughts pointing in that direction)

Wow, best ending to The Office in a long time.

Also, I finally got that monkey off my back.

computer monster skit, awesome!

Jim Henson is my hero.

Alright big brother is obviously watching what I type down and where I go. I just didn't know they had some betting pool on where we go and how many times we go there. Now I'm paranoid as heck.

I've told a few people about This American Life and recommended the subscribing to their podcast. It really is quite exceptionally produced radio.

Recently, they won a Peabody for a broadcast about Guantanamo Bay prisoners. (Basically, they thought outside the box and went and interviewed released prisoners.)

They recently rebroadcast that episode, and it's up on their website. I'm only partway through, but I recommend giving it a taste. It's certainly material that is strangely absent from any public discourse, and worth getting a bit of perspective on. (Doubtless, it's worth an hour of your otherwise unused bus/driving time.)

The most attractive feature of the opposite sex is poor eyesight.

No Al, you're right, but maybe not destroy all humanity.

I suggest:



I saw a documentary where the the creatures were not only easy to make, they had a voracious appetite for humans. The key to controlling them was to make all of the creatures female - thus no breeding!

Society would be fine. Life would be kinda like this. Or considering that we're working at destroying the environment, it would be more like this.
