like seeing Jesus in an omelet.
Now I'm hungry for a Communion wafer omelet.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

And for good measure, he added, "Ma'am, trying to have a conversation with you would be like trying to argue with a dining room table. I have no interest in doing it."
LOVE THIS!!

I had no idea Glen Beck knew how to read!
I don't know how many he has but I've seen "An Inconvenient Book" at my In-Laws and at big displays in the book stores.

The teeny girls get to be Daisies?? Too cute.
Yep! Daisies are ages 5 and 6 or so. IIRC, the activities mostly consist of learning the Girl Scout pledge, eating cookies, and making craft projects. ("On my honor, I will try to serve G-d and my country, to help people at all times, and to live by the Girl Scout Law." "I will do my best: to be honest, to be fair, to help where I am needed, to something or other, to be a sister to every Girl Scout." Hmm. I seem to have lost a bit of the Girl Scout Law somewhere along the way.)

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
One of many positives of finally officially coming out to my family is that they seem to have shifted politically to the left. They are Southern Catholic Republicans who now want same-sex marriage legalized and are happy as can be about their soon-to-be grandchild, gay parents or not. It's been quite a thing to behold.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The teeny girls get to be Daisies?? Too cute.
The new-ish breakdown is this:
K - 1st grade = Daisy Scout
2nd - 3rd grades = Brownie
4th - 5th grades = Junior Scout
6th - 8th grades = Cadette Scout
9th - 10th grades = Senior Scouts
11th - 12th grades = Ambassador scouts.
Back when I was a scout (cue tumbleweed), there were no Daisies.

Huh. Looks like the Girl Scout Law has changed a bunch of times over the years. [link] The 1972 version is the one I remember learning.

Ambassador Scouts is new. When I was in high school, all the high school grades were Senior Scouts. And Cadette for us started in seventh grade, not sixth.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Last time I was there, I had to sleep with my head six inches from Michael Savage's "Liberalism is a Mental Illness," or whatever it's called. In a stack of similar books. With a box of ammunition sitting on the floor.
::sigh:: Oh, family.
My brother has the magical ability to debate with G-pa without losing his shit, so I'm going to leave that to him.
Thanks for the Barney links, I've seen them. My favorite comment was one on Gawker - "Just to keep score - we've now had a black guy, a gay guy and an Israeli Jew who have all been accused of being Nazis. Kids, this is what happens when you sleep through history class."
Fortunately, I literally have to step away from the computer now. ::deep breaths::
