It's an amazing speech by AFL-CIO about racism.
Now there's some straight talk.
Just call me the computer whisperer.

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.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Hey, I got a team award.
Of course, it was for the thing where all I did was simple data entry and box-making (they needed people for scut work, and I had the time,) which, you know, not exciting or challenging, but what the heck.

(So if things go really wrong, you need to get them all downstairs and then find yourself a coupla of vampires.)
It actually has a cage with a lock - like the library in BtVS. They also have their old softball team equipment mixed in with the magnums and methuselahs and other mega bottles. In Nov. they have the Big Bottle party, where they invite a select bunch of people to drink lots and lots of super expensive wine for free.

“Not dead yet!”
McCain pulling out of Michigan
Oh goody. More McCain birdcage liners in my mail. And I don't even own a bird.
It's scaring the hell out of me that each time something really negative appears in the media about Sarah Palin, a new McCain/Palin sign pops up in my neighborhood. It's like bad shrooms.

I see lots of McCain/Palin bumper stickers as well as Nobama bumper stickers. But this is in Kansas.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
I just slammed Orson Scott Card, taught my students the word schadenfreude, led two successfulish whole class discussions where they made sense of the Aristotle stuff WITHOUT ME and got a kid to register to vote.
It's been a good morning. Fever and all.
Lunch? Turkey sandwich with nacho cheese spread (no really) and an iced tea. I'm living grand, aren't I?

Specializing in wine law? That is wicked cool.
My mom had her breast cancer found on her first mammogram when she was 40. DOOOO IT.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
My mom had hers found when she was 62. She's a healthy 80 now. Doooo eeeet.

Specializing in wine law?
My friend P's fiancee (whom he met in law school) is counsel for a consortium of vineyards in Napa. Then again, before she want to law school she held some sort of highish sort of job for Gallo. It's a good gig if you like your vino.
