I hope that someone gets my message in a bottle
I just found out that for at least the past year livejournal has shut down the ability to crosspost, which explains the long drought on postings here. I'm still live as Cyrano at Dreamwidth, although sporadically active. (Facebook and short snarky posts have sort of taken over my communication style, for better or for worse.) I don't think anybody' ( Read more... ) -
No good deed goes unpunished
Really bad news on the nonprofit front. In addition to other licensing I need, it looks like being able to collect debt will involve being bonded, and for 1-4 employees that's $15,000. Which, if you're employed by a big firm who covers that, is no big deal. I'm not sure I'll pull in $15,000 in a year. But if my research is right, and it makes ( Read more... ) -

Last year we set out spring traps that solved the problem in a rather gruesome but concise manner. This year my mom brought home poison ( Read more... ) -
Buying trouble on account
I'm in Idaho for six weeks caretaking for my Mom while my sister (who covers the other 46) takes care of personal items ( Read more... ) -
Coyote Cinema: Fast and Furious Presents: Snakes and Ladders
Okay, for real it's Hobbes and Shaw, but when I couldn't remember the name of the film that was my fallback position. I'd seen trailers and was pretty ambivalent about the project. My first comment was "I am obviously not cool enough to watch this picture". It was stuffed so full of toxic masculine energy that I started to wonder if this would be a ( Read more... ) -
Coyote Cinema: Terminator 3
Prepping for the new release in the Terminator franchise, I thought I'd watch the older ones I hadn't seen. (Considering rewatching Judgement Day, I might enjoy it this time.) Rise of the Machines is... not good. It has serious tonal issues, going from 'high emotional stakes end of the world' to a Looney Tunes cartoon complete with *boing* sound ( Read more... )
