The Most Inappropriate Kids' Clothing Ever Made (PHOTOS)
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Have I mentioned how much I suck at video games, especially PacMan?
If there was an office made up of of Buffistas....
I STILL think we need a Buffista Academy. Seriously, y'all, would it not be the best school ever? We know enough people who know enough people to get it going, and we certainly have the admin and personnel...
We have English teachers (er, HAI!), artists, writers, computer people, enviro science, biology, economy, psychology, music, PE, law, physics, bio, math, hmm, dunno about FORMAL history, but I have a minor, admin type people, pop culture, fundraisers, bartenders (hey, it IS Buffista Academy), housing experts, Latin, Spanish, French, Girl scout leaders...
I know I'm forgetting something. Wouldn't our school uniforms be AWESOME? Some teachers could telecommunte.
And we would have the coolest field trips...
Le sigh.
ION, I am agnostic. Raised Xian, dabbled in paganism in college, then decided "There are more things under Heaven and Earth, Horatio" and that dogma is not for me, since someone's always gotta be wrong, if someone else is right, and I think the uni is more complex than that, and yo, it's gonna keep on keepin' on, no matter what people think. So I try be Be Nice, and wonder about lots of things, without being het up with Finding Shit Out For Sure.
Hey! SUN! Crazy.
Sue, I suck at them, too. Never owned a console in my whole life. Closest I've gotten to getting decent was Tetris, and I wasn't that good.
What is the point of having a VERY cute oral surgeon when (a) I close my eyes during the procedure cause I don't want to see all the implements of destruction and (b) I don't ever want to go back there again. But, on the good side, he seemed very good at his job and he prescribes the good drugs.
Wow. The news. Wow.
So, a mouse crossing in front of the podium before a presidential news conference gets more coverage than the actual conference.
Plus, a man died on the Metro and the Metro system is being slammed because his body stayed on the train, undetected, for 5 hours. While that's sad, given that I see people asleep, drunk,and otherwise inactive, on the train all the time, I can't see why this is such a big deal.
It's a one in a million event...not something that needs to foment public ire or make the Metro change their processes.
Am I wrong? I just wonder about our cultural knee-jerkyness.

I don't think that could happen on the CTA because they make everyone (including sleeping bums) get off the train at the end of the line.
Marie Curie and Ada Lovelace t-shirts: Put some lady science heroes on your chest
ThinkGeek has launched a Heroine line, featuring women who've helped change the world. And Marie Curie (who discovered radiation) and Ada Lovelace (who invented computer programming) fit the bill. Plus, a dollar of each sale goes to charity. [Wonderland]

Yeah, that's SOP on the NY MTA, too. The conductors have to do a walkthrough of all the cars at the end of a line.
Right. It makes sense that the train should be cleared when it goes out of service, but...
About a year ago, I noticed some kids laughing at an empty seat at the back of my car and paid it no heed for a while. Ultimately, I walked back and looked under the chair. There was a young, Japanese national drunk out of his (and everyone else's) mind. It took major contortions...and wrenching my back...to get him up. I was afraid he would strangle himself, he was so origamied under there.
I could totally see this guy dying and not being detected...even with a walk through.
