I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

Cinco de Mayo
Cool. 5/5/5 Cinco de Mayo day. Maybe not as cool as next year's 6/6/6 Mark of the Beast day, but cool nonetheless.
ION, I designed the engine pods for the backyard spaceship. [link]

Two side and the front are omitted so I can see the structure better. I still need to decide if the pods should be blue, pink, two-tone blue and pink, and if I should mount guns in them.

There's even a question? Of course you put guns in them! Pink, with guns in them.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Ooh, you could have a control stick with a trigger on it, and when you pull the trigger the guns can make the Star Wars blaster sound....
And then you could have a hologram projector above the instrument panel, so you could project a tiny holographic image of yourself when it's time to call the kids in for dinner.

Of course, it turns out not to have been a big deal, but so why was WNYC airing this whole stupid press conference live?
I appreciated it, because I work three blocks from there and wanted to know how much of the area was going to be blocked off, but dude, a glass door and a flowerpot got 'sploded by a fake grenade in an area with a zillion cameras at 3 in the morning, and nobody was hurt. This was quite possibly the lamest act of terrorism in NYC history.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is what I'm saying. And the mayor had no information, anyway. He wouldn't even say it was directed at the British consulate. LAME.
Although, I was reminded of the time when I worked in DC that our block was evacuated because of a suitcase outside the building I worked in. Of course, it turned out to just be a suitcase, but it would have been tough to figure out who the target was in that building -- I worked for a pro-choice organization, there was some Jewish org, I think the NAACP, Friends of the Earth, etc., etc.

My office is taking bets on how long it'll take Bloomberg to spin this into a "This is why we need a West Side Stadium" story.
Loving the 5/5/5-ness of today.

I don't know if I can make it, but there's no way I'm buying a pretty dress for anything I need to show up at 7am for.
I know that was so supposed to be your excuse to buy a new dress, yet would you NEED to buy a dress. Are you saying you haven't one to wear already?
