1. As brought to my attention by leorathesane, Guys with Yarn: the 2009 Calendar. We thought it might be of interest to some of our friends. You know who you are. The calendar's creator also has a cartoon called Man vs. Sweater that is a must-read for all the yarn-craft folks in our lives.

2. Oh, hells no. Increasingly, I hope that this journal will be ( Read more... )

But Yeshua's not a natural born American citizen, so how's that supposed to work?

Plus, with a name like that, you gotta know he's a terrorist.

He gets a special dispensation 'cause America didn't exist when he was born. McCain loves him, by the way: "Finally, a candidate who's older than me!"

Plus, with a name like that, you gotta know he's a terrorist.

It was a tough call for him. He usually goes by his other name here, but then everybody thought he was an illegal immigrant. He'd go on campaign stops, and people were always telling him to park their cars and clean their toilets. A total PR nightmare.

1. Makes me glad I've never knit anything more complicated than an afghan square.

2. Emo Alaskan Goth! Love it!

3. Yeah, but can you imagine the fights they'd get into? "Daaaaad! Stop overriding my vetos!" "You're not to big to turn over my knee, you know. You overturned my ruling because I wouldn't let you go to Henry Kissinger's birthday party." "Woe is me. I'm a noncorporeal spirit of peace and love and unity. I don't get no respect. Woe."

4. Then I'll just have to eat my cereal with a spork.

5. All I was looking for was Pat Novak for Hire. I had no idea I was going to stumble on such a treasure trove! Glad you like it.

I don't know how much of that journal you've followed since gunn found it, but this is something like the fifth boyfriend she's had this year. She's been madly in love with every one of them, and this is the third time she's thought she was pregant (or, in this case, actually pregnant). She's also the "High Priestess" of a creepy and highly questionable Wiccan "coven" of which her uncle is the "High Priest" and, as near as I can tell, the only other member. She's sort of the anti-me me.

I was stunned: of all the things I was doing while listening to it, my actual work was the least interruptive.

1. The "Man v. Sweater" cartoon made my day. Having recently completed my first wearable sweater, I recognized most of his moves.

2. Oh, come on, you know it's you. You secretly love NIN and ellipses as poetry.

3. Hee. Every time someone mentions a long-shot candidate, I'm forever reminded of the "King of the Hill" where a fringe candidate says, "My opponents want you to pay attention to my hit-and-run record; NOT my 16-point plan for America!"

4. There is no 4, again.

5. That link is getting forwarded to my grandmother immediately. I suspect, five minutes from now, to get a call asking how to work the volume on her computer.

1. It reminded me of the movement exercises we did in riverrocks's class. I picture hir getting up there to teach it again and saying, "Okay, now make a movement like you're stuck inside a sweater."

2. Oh noes, my heart is made of thorns!!!

3. I just want a Bartlet for President sign.

4.

5. Didja?

5. I did, and did not receive a call as yet. I don't know how often she checks her e-mail, so it may be awhile.
