Now tagless for your comfort.

Today's breakfast was bacon, eggs, biscuits and gravy (made with the bacon drippings and heavy cream, FTW!).

I apologize if this post clogs any arteries.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I had Cream of Wheat, more to pacify Mom than feed my hunger. Perhaps I will get a donut at the DD down near the thrift store.

This is definitely First World problems compared to worrying about air strikes and Molotov cocktails. I wish I could do more than offer my sincere concern -- my thoughts are with you guys and your families, and pretty much anyone in the way.

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

OK, this is awesome: Live-Action Thundercats Movie

WormyTV spent a year and a half creating this fan made movie trailer for a live-action Thundercats movie using clips from various movies. Starring Brad Pitt, Hugh Jackman and Vin Diesel. The San Francisco-based graphic artist added all the effects frame by frame in Photoshop. The footage was edited in Adobe Premiere. Pretty incredible and also really funny.

It's fun just to try and identify all the movies and tv shows that they borrowed footage from to make the trailer.

eta: Is Vin Diesel supposed to be a hairless cat?

And possibly the worst product ever made: Twilight Edward Body Shimmer

Add subtle shimmer to your body with this iridescent powder. It includes a small application brush and comes in a clear container with an image of Twilight's Edward. 4 grams. Imported.

[Another Edit: sorry, y'all, for the depressing life-stuff. I don't wanna spoil anybody's holiday season, if I can help it.]

Thanks to Shir and Nilly again for the updates. I think of it more like when you are posting, you are okay, so it is alleviating some worry.

Twilight Edward Body Shimmer

That will get all over the Twilight bed sheets.

Oh come on, how could you tell? I'm sure those sparkle as well.

This is pretty cool: Early Carol Burnett on The Ed Sullivan Show

If this is truly 1957 as stated (and I have no reason to doubt it), then this is two years before Burnett got her first major break in the Broadway musical Once Upon a Mattress, although she had done some television work beforehand. This is ten years before her immortal self-titled show would hit as a series. And I can't quite tell, frankly, how parts of her routine are going over with the audience. I'm wondering if they knew what to do with her, frankly. But I think it's great. Hints of the mayhem that was to come.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am wishing safety for you and yours, Nilly and Shir. I also wish for truce and talking to come soon.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh! There are chances my sis would be home tomorrow for 48 hours!

Buffistas~ma for this would be very, greatly appreciated. I'm not sure when was the last time Little Fiend had rest, or even grabbed a shower.

And an update: IDF put cannons outside of the Strip, first time in 12 months. Egypt shot dead a person from the Strip, trying to escape.

I can't believe my country has so much to do with the hell over there.
