Cash, do you have tissue paper? you can make tissue paper wreaths on paper plates or even construction paper.

If you have pipe cleaners they can make different shape ornaments.

Also, Strips of paper can be decorated for bookmarks as gifts for teachers, neighbors, and such.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

This pretty much sums up my feelings on the Warren thing: [link] I knew I loved that woman!

Oh, I do have tissue paper! I think making tissue paper stained glass windows is cool! I forgot about those. Thanks, msbelle. I have paper plates, too, so we can do wreaths, as well.

We don't do many house decorations other than the tree so these projects will add a bit more festivity.

I suspect that Obama is trying to make good on his acceptance speech promise to those who voted against him that "I'll be your president too."

That's how I see it. If you're going to appeal to the religious conservatives, there probably isn't anyone better. I am a bit disturbed by some of Warren's comments that I hadn't heard before. I always saw him as one of the less contentious national social conservative pastors. From what I've read in his book, he seemed to be serving up the same bland warmed over stuff I've heard in sermon after sermon.

wasn't Warren's church the venue for the first Obama/McCain debate?

Yes

Should we be avoiding Kristen's Roomate's actual name and refer to her only as Kristen's Roomate or She Who Must Not Be Named?

I'm avoiding it until she feels comfortable using it again.

Our tree topping angel is constructed of wire, a kabob spear, a foam ball, thick paper, and white plastic grocery bags. That might be too much for that age though.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

It's only been 10 days since my last creepy email.

Just got into work, but the commute wasn't so bad. We've got about 5-6 inches of snow up here, which only took me 10 minutes or so to clean off of my car (I recently got one of those long-handled snowbrushes, which is great!) and the drive in was only five minutes longer than normal.

There are so few people here that an entire wing still has the lights off! Also, the cafeteria is going to close an hour early.

Gov. Blago's office is getting back on the press release train. They're notorious for daily sending out tons of releases touting every little thing the gov did before his arrest, but they haven't sent one thing after that early-morning visit by the cops until today, to brag about some bills he's signed.
