• So it's been quite a week for schadenfreude. The whitewashing of the Republicans on Tuesday night, Rummy's "resignation" yesterday afternoon, and K-Fed getting tossed out on the street. (Yes, I'm aware that he'll be getting quite a payout, but seriously, how long do you think it will take him to blow through that money? He's not exactly Phi Beta ( Read more... )

This song is as true today as when it was written. From the sketch comedy show "A Bit of Fry and Laurie", starring Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie.

P.S.: I *heart* YouTube.

Today is a momentous day. For it was on this day, seventy-five years ago, that God himself reached down to Earth and gave us a great gift. He placed this gift in the humble confines of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in the home of a family of Jewish Ukranian faith. They called this gift...

Who would win in a fight: Morgan Freeman or Josef Stalin?

I've been promising this update all weekend, so I'd better get to it while everything is fresh in my mind ( Read more... )

You know what? I've been silent on the subject of my Baltimore Orioles for entirely too long. Yes, I said "my". The day I was born at Greater Baltimore Medical Center, Oriole Hall of Fame manager Earl Weaver was ejected from a game, as was his style. Being born and raised in Baltimore, I was destined to root for the Birds. There are pictures ( Read more... )

Just to keep you posted, I signed up for High-Speed Cable Internet from Comcast today...so by this time next week, I should be back among the semi-living, in the land of milk and honey known as...well...cyberspace. Home Cyberspace, anyway. The kind that fills the empty hours and allows me to download all of the ill-gotten musical gains I can ( Read more... )

More musings, falling as randomly as the raindrops that soaked me so thoroughly this morning. I love the rain, though. It's very soothing falling outside my window as I sleep. It creates a great atmosphere when you're listening to your mp3 player, or CD player, or Victrola. Seriously, how many awesome songs are about rain? Just the entire ( Read more... )

Okay, I'm not dead yet. We're moved in and more or less settled, and as of last night, I even have a functioning shower. However, no cable until next Tuesday, and no Internet for at least a month, so I am going through MASSIVE withdrawal, and am posting from work, which I don't do very often. As far as anyone knows. As for the move itself, I ( Read more... )

So yeah, if there's anyone who didn't know, I took a road trip on Tuesday-Wednesday. With Hefner and Liam. To New York City. To see SPAMALOT. They say that getting there is half the fun, but I don't know about that. I had the enviable task of navigating, made all the better by snow, ice, and a smeared, half-obscured windshield. To my credit, ( Read more... )
