Always Anti-fascist!

You don't remind me of Camryn Manheim, Allyson. Nothing against her, either, but you guys aren't the same type.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I think it's just a weird thing that some people do, lumping all the thick girls together as one specific thing.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think I just gave myself a blister while frying bacon for lunch. Note to self: grease spatters.

ow.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Those eyeglasses are lovely. In fact, I am wondering if I ordered them, if I could bring them in and have lenses put in here in Rochester.

The Camryn Manheim thing is weird. (I haven't gotten that, I usually look like someone's Italian Cousin). There are 13 million differant types of thin people, obviouslt all of us who are thicker don't all have the same body type.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I used to have frames like that. Loved them. And I think they'd suit you, Allyson.

Laura, recieved and backflung, with thanks.

I used not to have a problem reconciling ID and evolution. Nobody could tell me how big God's clock is, or Her calendar. I honestly believe that some people just really have a problem believing the world existed before they were born, will continue after they're gone. And for this reason, they can't accept that they, personally, or their family, or anybody they know, "descended" from monkeys. Because monkeys, obviously, are lesser than human, and we're made in the image of God. Who is better than monkeys.

Short-sighted and self-centered, to my way of thinking. Which is so open-minded, my mom used to tell me, my brain's liable to fall out.

This day is too long. I'm editting xml files by hand, since the tools are broken. My eyes are crossing. There is a software installation that is going very very poorly, and it sounds like it is largely due to problems with the humans. I didn't read the plan closely enough and missed that dbs would be down (but then, the dbas neglected to tell everyone not involved in the install that the dbs would be down, so...) Someone is giving me a new table, which would be wonderful if it actually contained reliable info. But it may not.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The History Channel has a series coming up (in April, I think) called "10 Days That Unexpectedly Changed America," and one of the eps is about the Scopes trial. It's quite good -- not your usual cheap History Channel stuff at all. (The whole series is good, actually, but the Scopes ep relates to the current conversation. What they did was to hire 10 documentary filmmakers and said "Pick a day in American history and make a documentary about it." The directors were given almost total control over their projects, and a nice fat budget to do it well.)

Even bacon has forsaken you? Dude. The only answer is SGA porn.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Allyson, I like these. [link]

I hadn't looked at it that way, but you may be right. Maybe bacon was just trying to teach me a little bit of a lesson.
