Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

As much as 400 year old poop makes you cry?

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

Lets say some archaeologists dig up some old ruins and come across across an ancient palaeontology museum, complete with dinosaur bones.

Then what happens?

Those are tears of joy, Trudy. Tears of sweet, smelly joy.

We call in the Creationists.

Compassionately intolerant

Like, adults trick-or-treating house to house without kids? They would probably get a "Yo, Peter Pan! You can take your VISA card into a candy store any day of the year!" from me.

I'm a bit torn about this. The adults I get are generally deeply under privileged...sometimes actual crack addicts. Tough to take a moral stand over Tootsie roll bites.

was asssuming they identified themselves as archaeologists.

Nope. That was totally my bad. I thought to call them Adventurers. Shoulda. But he, now I'm reminded of the difference in those noble professions. Sorry for the tears!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

SFistas! I heard about the earthquake this morning on NPR. Freaky!

Aimee, you must dress up. Also, we are going to need lots of pictures.

Sue's living room is pretty, but I love that kitchen!

I am not in costume today (or at least not anymore than I am any other day-today is vaguely hippie/prairie girl as I have on a belted sweater, gauzy blue skirt, new cowboy boots! and bangles.) Tonight I shall be Jessica Rabbit, and hopefully Mr. Jane will be Eddie. I just discovered I can send photos from my phone directly to flickr, so keep an eye on that page tonight.

Huh. I went to see what was online about the trackways guy I know and....turns out, dinosaur tracks? Bring out the craxies. Not the geeky fun craxies, the OMG you'll ban my ATV over my dead body, OMG choose-your-religious-theory-proof, OMG CONSPIRACY! craxies.

Oh & he just discovered pertrified wood in the area.
