Suzi, that sounds super fun.

It's okay, perkins. I am listening to Shakespeare so all is good. I love Hamlet so much.

I did that in Chicago a few years ago. It was a blast.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Ha! Kara would have a whole lecture about how Irish Channel is NOT Garden District, nor Lower Garden District. I don't care as much, so I'll spare you.

She needs to lecture Google maps. When I clicked the map link in Nora's link it came up with "Garden District" right above the locater arrow.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Animals in the news.

Lots of cute pictures, but insectophobes might want to avoid. (Especially #11).

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

#17 is my fave.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

awesome thing of the day for me: searching allrecipes.com by ingredients and finding recipes to cook this week to use up the pantry items!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think a lot of realtors say "Lower Garden District" instead of "Irish Channel" because the latter is less famous. Drives my cousin insane. I think that's how it gets like that in google maps-who I will not tell her to lecture, because I'm afraid she would.

Design the Haggis Beast competition winners

In response to a survey that found one in five Britons believes the Haggis is a beast that roams the highlands, we asked you to design what this cryptozoological fancy might look like. Brynn Metheney's awesome digital painting, cast against expectations of devilish furry things, takes the prize! Which is a Verizon Droid Eris cellphone.

These are fun....

I love the use up pantry items, msbelle. It's pretty cool.

I should spend this week making casseroles and the like for when Grace comes home (7 days!!).
