Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Which?

FortiSakharof, Berry Sakharof (which I listen to nonstop the past few weeks - even more than to my usual Dulliverse!), Rona Kenan. Katamine is also Israeli (mostly Assaf Tager), but I think more people knows him outside of the land of milk and honey.

Dear god, I know my job isn't your job anymore, but with no formalized training, just me begging for scraps of information, when weird shit happens, I'm going to seek the advice from experts. Of which you are the main one.

So answer my two critical emails already!

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

I so wish I was in San Francisco now....

Friggin in the Riggin Aboard the Tall Ship USCG Eagle

If you’ve ever enjoyed even a little bit of Joseph Conrad, Patrick O’Brian, Moby Dick, or Pirates of the Caribbean, you really should get down to Pier 30/32 in San Francisco during the next few days to check out the tall ships that are now tied up there. Or, at the very least, be sure to savor the view of them as you drive across the Bay Bridge.

Yesterday the Coast Guard gave me tour of the USCG Eagle, a steel-hulled, three-mast ship that was originally built by the Nazis in 1936. After World War II, the ship was seized as a war prize by the U.S. military. Once in American hands, it was handed over to the Coast Guard for use as a training vessel, and it’s been in use at the Coast Guard Academy ever since.

Lots of pictures. More pictures/info here: Festival of Sail - Parade of Tall Ships Under the Golden Gate Bridge

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I just got off the phone with Mom. I wanted to get a sense of where everything lies with my brother, and I told her to have him call me whenever he wants to talk. He moved in with her last night temporarily until he gets an apartment.

Mom thinks that SIL might get grabby with the divorce settlement, especially when it comes to his pension. I hope not--I'd like to see them have as amicable a settlement as my parents did--but I just don't know.

The good thing is that they're going to bring the kids to see the counselor they've been using for marriage therapy. They were struck really hard by the news, obviously.

Hey, if I wanted to ask a question about the upcoming TV show "True Blood", would discussion take place in Boxed Set or Premium Cable?

Art Crawl!!!

Upcoming? Either will do - but possibly Spoilers Lite if it's casting etc. Premium is where it will live though.
