Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Thanks all. I'm off to meet my doom now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

shrift, you know the solution, don't you? Shank them. It's the only way, really.

The art of supermodel retouching

Tons of photos of supermodels - when you mouse over them you see the original, unretouched photo. I knew that photos of models are retouched, but actually seeing how much is changed is kinda' freaky.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

popping in to thank everyone for the ~ma. i just posted an update in lj, that i will parse down here.

my aunt is still in the ICU. they have her on a ventilator and are heavily sedating her. her eye is swollen shut from either grease getting into it or the fire blowing into it. we're not sure. they're putting antibiotics in it. she has 2nd and 3rd degree burns on her face, neck, hands and arms. not to mention smoke inhalation. they say her vitals are good and she should pull through this.

my sister fractured the bone between her first and second toe on her left foot. we spent about 3 hours in the ER last night and she has an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon in about a half hour.

meanwhile, my nephew has become a hometown hero. we've had one of the major news stations, the tennesseean newspaper and our town's local paper here interviewing him today. since he was the one who got his baby sister and dog out of the house and ran to the neighbor's house to get the fire extinguishers when my sister got hurt. the fire department said if they hadn't gotten those fire extinguishers the damage would have been much worse.

BoingBoing is offering one million dollars to anyone who can "...produce empirical evidence which proves that Jesus is not the son of the Flying Spaghetti Monster." [link]

This is their answer to a guy who is offering "a quarter of a million dollars to anyone who can give any empirical evidence for evolution."

move out and draw fire

Oh my, just...wow. I'm so relieved your nephew saved the baby and the dog, and that your sister's injuries weren't worse. Major massive health-ma to your aunt and sister.

Dude, I am making a deal with myself. If I keep a lid on the homicidal rage and don't shank anybody for the next three hours, I get to buy Deadwood and then watch Seth kick stupid people ass.
