Your dominant hues are green and blue. You're smart and you know it, and want to use your power to help people and relate to others. Even though you tend to battle with yourself, you solve other people's conflicts well.

Your saturation level is higher than average - You know what you want, but sometimes know not to tell ( Read more... )

This morning, on my way to work, I found myself behind a nice, fairly expensive car, sporting on its trunk two of those magnetic "peace" symbols. Pretty common around here, especially with the all-but-obligatory anti-war bumper stickers that generally accompany such magnets. Except for one small, hilarious detail: The peace symbols were done in ( Read more... )

I just finished editing a story about how one of the local high schools is planning to test kids for alcohol impairment at school functions (games, dances, etc.), Leaving aside for the moment the possibility of rights violations for mandatory testing without probable cause, for a separate post, we have GOT to come up with a different term for this ( Read more... )

Ganked from the inimitable father-daughter duo of liamstliam and evilnicola:

Reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I like you. Then put this in your own journal, and spread the love.

Today, the AP reported the Secret Service codenames of President-elect Obama and his family. He is Renegade. She is Renaissance. The girls are Rosebud and Radiance, in keeping with the tradition that everyone in the family have names that start with the same letter. Protectees have SOME say in what codenames they are given, and the Obamas chose ( Read more... )

Alton Brown + Popcorn = Wife-porn.

The problem is, I have difficulty coming up with a problem, here ...

Discuss.

I wore my hair, today, as I often do, in a braid coiled on top of my head and clipped into place. For sleeping, I prefer a plain French or English braid, so as I sat here at the computer, I pulled my hair down, preparatory to re-braiding it in a more sleep-friendly position ( Read more... )
