If I thanked everyone who had done something nice for me in the last year, I'd forget someone for sure. So I'm going to settle for saying thank you to all of you, for everything. OK, I lied. Standouts for 2008 include teeka and revchris for showing up to help with fence and floor (HOLY SHIT was that a year ago already??), madshutterbug for amusing me at work, alice_q...

Okay, the dogs always get tortured dressed up for Halloween, because that is how I roll. Awhile ago, I posted about a pit bull protecting their owner from a samurai-wielding boyfriend in my personal journal... I of course instantly thought Halloween could be the Clash of the Ninja Clans - Pit Bull v. Muttskie, Shadow Wars '08 ....or something like that. However, the only ninja costume I could...

I'm stealing this from frostynorth : Radio Profile about Jon Stewart It's worth a listen to, if only because it gives Jon Stewart and the Daily Show a bit of recognition for the important work that he/it does. It's a start, if nothing else. What I wish people would really realize is, that it's not just that he draws in the youth audience that's important. Sure he's bringing politics to...

Hi everyone. I miss you people dammit. My computer will not be fixed until sometime this month. A vague answer from the guy who is going on a business trip in two days and expecting a baby in two weeks. *sigh* Update from hell, anyone? Home: Kill me. Two places did not work out (didn't get the condo because the Home Owner's Association in the neighborhood I lived in for three years doesn't...

This post will most likely be of interest only to those on my flist who have reactive dogs and want to curb their behavior. I have no doubt this will be a very long post, and I will do my best to explain as fully as possible what I learn, but absolutely feel free to ask me questions and stuff. Also, rinalia was right (I knew she would be. She's a smartypants.) I'm already more confident about...

This is sooooo freakin' cool ! I love IMPOROV. From: http://www.Improveverywhere.com/2008/01/31/frozen-grand-central/ On a cold Saturday in New York City, the world’s largest train station came to a sudden halt. Over 200 Improv Everywhere Agents froze in place at the exact same second for five minutes in the Main Concourse of Grand Central Station. Over 500,000 people rush through Grand Central...
