"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I suspect that one factor in the perception that "bi is just a phase" is that most people, of whatever sexual inclination, tend to settle down with one partner as they get older. Monogamy doesn't mean one has made one's final choice, but it can seem that way. I've known several men who had a number of male partners who've married women, in part because they wanted families. I wonder if widespread acceptance of same-sex marriage and adoption might eventually change the overall dynamics.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The NYTimes article about the French soccer team is just surreal.

[link]

The coach who chooses players according to the Zodiac. The head-butting. The elbowing. The handballing. Underage hookers!

Le Parisien, the French newspaper, wrote scathingly: “To have the worst soccer team at the World Cup was almost unbearable. To also have the most stupid is intolerable.”

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm wearing my Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream t-shirt today. I hate to admit it but Jeni's may be better than Graeters.

And, I have a new tag.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Ok, you know what, I have to say this here, because I absolutely have to stop over there because I'm making an ass of myself.

I know Dallas is plastic and there's stuff I hate about it, and yes, it's downtown has traditionally been a barren dead thing post 5 pm. But a lot of residences have opened up and there are things to do there and the streets don't just empty out once all us corporate types have gone home.

I know it's the hipster thing to do to bag on the part of town that has Neiman's, but you know what? I like that place too! It's hyperbole at best and lazy at worst to say that downtown has nothing particularly when that's where the FUCKING ARTS DISTRICT IS YOU EDGIER THAN THOU MORONS!

Thank you.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Funny how one runs into things on the web. Weren't we talking just a few hours ago about the too-stupid-to-know-it crowd? Turns out there's a name for that. Anosognosia.

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

Yeah, that NYT article has been linked to once or twice in the last few days....

Ah, sorry for the repetition. I'm a skipper.

...but I don't think the word 'anosognosia' was mentioned....
