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

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That Nobel committee really upped their HSQ. It does feel somehow like there's several lines of subtext in the award. One is "Thank you for not being Bush." But I think there's also a little of "Yay America! you elected a black dude." and some, "Take that, you crazy whack-a-doodle conservatives."
Especially when you consider that Obama had been president for less than two weeks when the nominations were made. [link]
Of course, I was still full of high hopes for Guantanamo and the Obama Presidency in general at that point.

One difference between Tutu and Obama, is that Tutu was not in the middle of fighting 2.5 wars, at least 1.5 of which he is escalating. Also Tutu had been campaigning for the end of apartheid a long time. The Nobel committee has a long time history of bad decisions, and this is by no means the worst. It was awarded to Kissinger, and to Teddy Roosevelt. For that matter there was once a deadlock between giving the prize to Hitler or Ghandi so it was given to a commissioner on refugees as a compromise. As I said Obama is far from the worst they have ever done. But it won't go down as one of their good decisions.

I'm trying to decide what to do about lunch. I'm hungry for Pizza, but the Dominoes nearby has closed.
Are there any frozen pizzas that don't suck if you nuke them instead of sticking them in a convection oven?

pink bathrooms
LOVE. It is almost 100% assured that when I move next it will be to a 50s or 60s house and I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a pink bathroom. If money comes out like I think it will on that move, I'll probably be re-doing part of bathrooms or a kitchen and I might very well do a vintage re-do of both. I can hear the sellers/designers screaming now as I probably rip out the brand new granite/marble counters they put in. I hate the new stuff.
