I'm disappointed that there were no links with Emmy watch and post. I wanna see best and worst dressed!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Bet your feminist teacher never told you:
Huh. I didn't even know the feminist class was offered.
I did mine independent study. Well, I watched Kay Howard a lot. Perfect clearance rate, great hair, and some cute boyfriends...what else does one want from her feminist icons?
How to make a fort
With cushions, quilts, etc....
Wow, that mom allowed some nice quilts in that fort. The ones we made as kids were all made of very well used blankets.
Pimp sticks need bling, not cheer. Poser.
The 9:30 meeting was a colossal waste of time. Well, except so far as it proved a point of mine. But it didn't need proving that badly.
God, I am of the sleep. Just made of sleep.
New Star Wars Lego computer game: [link] This one focuses on the original trilogy (EPs 4-6). There's a nice shot of a Lego creature with Vader's head, Leia's body (with metal bikini) and Han's blaster.
How to make a pimp stick
I was going to suggest velcro.
Or glue, depending on what you want to stick the pimp to.

Acting and The Wire .
Although I don't fully agree, I think ogged has a point about acting and The Wire. It's a really, really, outstanding show, and getting better too. But part of me does wish that Simon had been able to do Homicide on HBO. Particularly in the first season, when you compare McNaulty and Pembleton you have to notice that while the latter character is one of the greatest in TV history while the former is a pretty stale cliche, and one also notices that Dominic West ain't Andre Braugher.

I hadn't thought about the carbon impact of Burning Man before. If I had, I probably wouldn't have considered Cupcake Cars to be the primary culprets. And apparently, I would have been right. Beware the wrath of a solar/electric cupcake car enthusiast!
I feel my muffin has been defiled. In Meridith May's August 26 article entitled "Burning Man Goes Green," she made a particularly distressing error (well, distressing to, at the very least, me and my fellow cupcake builders). Gas powered food? Ick. The motorized cupcakes and muffins are all electric, every delicious one of them, charged by solar panels back at camp. No gas. No varoom. None among us has a gas powered Burning Man art vehicle. . . . Please remember to do your research even when writing about wacky art projects. Though I hope no one digs deep enough to discover that the furry toppings for the cupcakes were harvested from baby seals and stray kittens.
