Voting for Obama this Saturday as lesser evil. Difference arguable on Domestic, but on foreign policy (where Prez has much more power) seems less warlike. Not just vote on Irag - Iran resolution, general attitude. Hillary seems genuinely more conservative and warlike on foreign policy assumptions than Obama. Neither is great on that issue, both better than Republicans, But Obama is a lesser evil. And when it comes to U.S. foreign policy very small policy differences translate into large difference in number of people killed. I'll take "likely to kill fewer people" over "experience". I know it is hard not sympathize with her when so she is attacked with such misogny from so many sides, but again, "likely to kill more people" trumps "the bastards are being mean to her" with me. (And that is not irony. They really are bastards and really are being mean and unfair to her. It is just even a slight difference in hawkishness translates to a whole lot of deaths.)

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.
Was the question how to tie an obi belt? I have no idea, but if I'm tying sashes in front, I usually use some kind of necktie knot so it lies flat.
Timelies all!
No big plans for the weekend. Mostly just catching up on tapes, and doing small errands. Last night we went to a concert out in Sykesville, and got home lateish, so tonight is staying in with SGA and laundry.
By the time the belt is wrapped back around to the front it's less than an inch wide. From what I could see of the photo, this thin silk wouldn't hold the knot that the leather did. I just ended up tying that stupid twice over knot.
I could try a bow, but it would either be small or floppy.
Doctor doesn't seem to have my sense of urgency, either about the morphine or the edema. He is dropping the morphine just a tad, and telling me to cut out salt for the edema. Am I not being clear or something? And now I'm show and tell for the phlebotomists.
Vanity Fair decided to recreate some of the classic scenes from the films of Alfred Hitchcock using modern day actors and actresses. Imagine Charlize Theron in Diam M For Murder, Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Downey Jr. in To Catch a Thief, Seth Rogen in North by Northwest, Scarlett Johansson and Javier Bardem in Rear Window, Niomi Watts in Marnie, Keira Knightley and Jennifer Jason Leigh in Rebecca, Emile Hirsch and James McAvoy in Strangers on a Train, Rene Zellweger in Vertigo, Jodie Foster in The Birds, or Tang Wei, Josh Brolin, Casey Affleck, Eva Marie Saint, Ben Foster, Omar Metwally and Julie Christie in Lifeboat.
Those are cool. Except Seth Rogan as Roger Thornhill is just wrong.

Better than Joe Rogan.
Well, yeah. That goes without saying.
I'm not sure it's live yet, but if you go to Vanity Fair's website, you should be able to see those pics as a slide show with a Hitchcock interview running over them. (We licensed the interview to them.)
Better than Joe Rogan.
That's true of anything that doesn't involve the phrase "...and that's when the lethal and humiliating on-set accident happened."
