The post that never dies.

Wow, that Duggar post just keeps on going. And when I think it can’t possibly get more nutty…. it does.
Hee. I love that Duggar post.

Lawnmowin’ mix.

Monday, May 7th, 2007

There must be a mix for everything now. S. is so right. Mowing the lawn is /so much/ less horrible with a soundtrack. Mine includes:

Shiny Toy Guns - We are […]

What does it say, really, when Geraldo is the sane one?

Guitar repertoire and 300

Friday, April 6th, 2007

My highly-limited (and largely partial and/or off-beat, often simply grinding to a halt while tab is consulted) repertoire (and for those not interested, skip straight to a review of 300):

Smoke on the water
Boys don’t cry (cure)
Wish you were here (pink floyd)
Belief (john mayer)
blue skies (pink floyd)
trust (cure)
a forest (cure) ok so it’s just a bass […]

More Cure.

More pictures on flickr. 12 of Robert Smith in total. They were taken with no flash–even after dark. Some have been processed a bit, and some were pushing the limits of the digital zoom, but there were at least a dozen salvageable with technology. And, damn, we were /that/ close. […]

24: season 6, hour 11

Monday, February 26th, 2007

It’s Monday, thus it’s time for 24. Read no further, ’cause I’m gonna start with a summary. Since this is about the portion of the season where I start forgetting dangling plot ends. (Unfortunately, so do Surnow and Grazer. Oh well.)
Also, as a note: The Black Donnellys is hilarious. It’s like crossing […]

24: season 6, hour 10

Tuesday, February 20th, 2007

We will continue our regularly-scheduled 24 synopsis, with only a small margin of error for illness. In other words, anything wonky that shows up this week? Can be blamed on Nyquil instead of just my usual charm.

Uh-oh. Bashir’s gonna be the fall guy for another Palmer assassination. Oh dear. I don’t […]

Lengthy post about books.

Monday, February 19th, 2007

Under the thrall of a Nyquil-induced haze, I have spent much of the morning (and likely, the remainder of the day) reading. This is a favorite thing to do, under the influence or not, though my choices tend toward the comforting and familiar when I am sick and out of it.
Right now it’s that time […]
