Chilli is brilliant. thanks cash! It's perfect weather for that, too.

PR fans: Remember the recyclable challenge? Well, Waste Management bought up all the dresses and is going to use them to raise money for the areas in which the designer's live.

Timelies all!

Well, the housefilk host was contacted and directions were given, so we're heading north in a little while, to return tomorrow.

sumi, that's cool! I'm listening to Tim Gunn's podcast about the episode now...it gives some really amusing behind the scenes anecdotes.

I woke up cranky still, apologies for putting my crankiness up on the board last night.

I have done nothing on my to do list so far. But, what I have done:

opened a new 0% credit card, transferred some balances
went threw a box of business cards and threw out a ton
organized a desk drawer
cleaned up living room

now I am calling to cancel 2 Credit cards and hopefully get another 0% one online. I should probably pay down a balance while I am at it. I hate debt.

How is your face feeling this morning msbelle?

I have read a bunch of info on pigeons. Fed my guest popcorn and rice, and water. Contacted the organization that should contact the owner. It is an IF bird from the BWI club. The site says I should feed and water it a couple days then let it fly home. Pigeon likes popcorn.

msbelle's post made me realize I haven't paid bills in a while.

Ooops! Now I've somehow paid my Visa bill twice online.

[ita, I realize I'm taking liberties, here] was along these lines: if the only damage done by an act is emotional, she's not so sure the law should involve itself

Cindy, NO. I never said anything of the sort. I'm trying to be done with the discussion, but I don't like seeing myself misrepresented.

ita, I'm very sorry for misrepresenting you. I was too lazy to go back and look, and what you've quoted above was my restatement of these (two, separate) comments:

You've appealed to my emotional response. What I think is more important is my logical response. I don't see why I should care. Plenty of people already eat things I think are nasty and perform sex acts that make me wince and look away. I'm not about to start outlawing them because I think they are gross. I'd only want to outlaw them if I thought they were wrong.

...

Cindy, I'm leery of legislating to keep people's spirits up. There are plenty of legal ways to desecrate my mother's memory, hurt me deeply, and disgust me to the core. Where should the lawmakers start?

Morning!

I'm glad to see that Kalshane got through the night OK. Indeed, this is a fucked up situation at his work, and HR should be backing him up, if only to keep the company in a legally protected position....
