Obviously, the way to make sure that your kid will succeed at baseball is to give him a good baseball name.

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

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
My water bill in Texas (water/sewer/trash) was $100 last month WITHOUT ME LIVING THERE! Now, a sprinkler system was used some on the lawn, but YIKES. Electricity for the non-lived in house was over $20.
Electricity for 950 sq ft here last month was over $100, because I have 2 A/Cs on and a kid who must have electronics on.

Unfortunate about his nose, really, but boy, do I like him.

Good Lord, big bad storms again right now (well, not in our part of town right this second -- I wouldn't be online if they were [maybe]).
There aren't any more giant Jesus statues to burn -- I wonder what will get whammied tonight?

Apparently the tanker pumping oil from the BP spill got hit today.

I posted on Facebook about my annoyance at Storm, Part Deux.
I found out that the Reds game had the top deck of seats evacuated because DX posted on my status to say that he saw it because he was watching the Reds game online.
I love the internets.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

First the Jesus statue and now this. Okay, which deity are we dealing with, now? It's hard to know what to sacrifice when they're so unclear.
I was loving Trudy's description of New Yorkers earlier.

The Mets brought their short game tonight. They have seven infield hits.

Last-minute runs make me nervous. Phew. Mets win!

Just ran into something weird. WRT to the oil spill, talk from a Brit about how OMG anti-British sentiment in the US!! I was all buh? Not really seeing it or hearing it. Anti-corporation, anti-gov't, anti-moratorium (omg, parish or something president on NPR after the speech had one note and oy, fanatical!) sure. I go out looking in the media, and most of what I see is on British media sites, Brits bemoaning being slandered and their reputation being hurt and the random USian going buh? Not seeing it. In the US media, I saw an article referencing brit media's tempest, but more than that? NSM.
Seems mostly taken from the President referring to BP as "British Petroleum" which if you want to spin it for US audiences, was, if anything, meant to emphasize Petroleum given our psycho relationship with Big Oil. But apparently segments of the UK media are hearing the emphasis on British.
I'm just confuzzled. I'm sure there are loonies out there, but c'mon. BP is a multinational, third owned by US factions, at least. It's just weird.
