Pak Nam Gi, North Korea Finance Chief, Reportedly Executed Over Failed Currency Reform

Barb, did you get a dress for the wedding? I snagged one of the Liberty of London dresses from Target yesterday (since stock is slowly being returned now and you can luck out and find stuff) and, if you can find one in your size, it might be perfect for a wedding. The fit is surprisingly nice.

I spent the night tossing and turning over me not going in this morning, and how best to work around it.

No magical solutions.

ION, just be glad you're not the North Korean Finance Chief.

And be glad you're not whoever is in charge of keeping the Illuminati's latest plots quiet (unless you are). Evidently Lady Gaga's secret Illuminati video messages have been exposed (note: the page shows screen-shots from Lady Gaga videos, so it may not be SFW, depending on your W).

Telephone is yet another Lady Gaga product permeated with references to mind control and Illuminati symbolism. Gaga’s “commentary” on today’s youth is certainly not a positive one. The video basically says: America is ready to eat any poisonous crap the elite serves them, and that is accomplished through controlled puppets.

sumi, I'm loving Hard Target. Not so much for the stories, but the characters. I've decided I'll watch anything Jackie Earle Haley does that isn't too creepy. I just love his presence.

I liked last night's ep, but LOVED the monastery one.

Just like Mr. Universe said.

Waiting for the comcast person to come and shift me out of my 13 year relationship with Verizon. Never loved the big V, to be honest. Felt pretty misused, in fact. But still, I'm nervous. Will the new guy actually respect me? Be there for me, without all the static? Seriously, I feel like I'm leaving an abusive relationship by risking another.

Plus, my on the side thing with Thunderbird is bumming me out. Can't figure out how to save my email to the hard drive. Will all the memories be lost?

Sigh.

OK, there's a certain basic bit of info about passenger trains that some people don't understand. See, some passenger trains are express trains, which means they might go right past a station without stopping. Every so often, people get killed because they don't know this and try to cross the tracks in front of a train. Here's an article:

Video shows woman, goddaughter killed by train

Thee video is freaky. You don't actually see the woman and baby get killed - they just disappear from the picture. What's especially freaky is the whole time you see the woman in the frame, she doesn't look at the train once.

Here's the actual video: Metra surveillance video from 3/13/2010 accident

Last night I drove over to a friend's who had a space heater I could borrow, so we've got three now, and the roommate procured electric blankets, so the prospects for the rest of March and April's comfort can be looking up.

And it's going to be 70 this weekend!!
