Thanks, le nubian. That was interesting.

I'm trying to decide if I want to go see Hunger Games tonight or tomorrow.

If I could find any of the these arc reactors in a chick cut, I'd be happy. Well, not the one with the torso. But, nothing. And I doubt I'll find something before May 4th. So, instead, old faithful.

It's good, msbelle. Normally I'd say a little at a time, but you're doing a lot at a time.

Pear butter is done. We'll see if it firms up. It made three and a half pints.

Now archery and then more weeding, I think.

“Every day 20 tour buses come down this street to look at this neighborhood and take pictures,” Harris said. “Don’t tell me they’re just touring the city. If you’re trying to tour the city, then you’re in the wrong neighborhood. They just ride around in the part that’s been devastated. Lower Ninth Ward ain’t receiving a single penny for that. Why can’t I get something? Why does the man driving the bus get all the money? I ain’t a guinea pig. I don’t want to be put under a microscope. We’re the ones that suffered down here, who lost everything. There are still dead people that they haven’t accounted for. It’s frustrating. It took almost seven years for the Ninth Ward to look like what it looks like now, and it still don’t look like [anything].”

This is a huge problem that basically treats these victims like animals in a zoo. Hey, Hil, do you have the link for that story?

The Think Geek one that lights up amuses me, but I wouldn't spend that much for a t-shirt.

I like that Cap shirt. I am currently wearing a Supes t-shirt very much like this one: [link] except it's a ringer.

I gave up on having visitors and am getting a pedi and then a full set of nails. Ahhhhh massage chairs.

My Superman logo shirt is pale blue distressed on darker blue. I like it because it's not very obvious.

But today is "May the odds be ever in your favour" day.

So Dick Cheney has had a heart transplant. How do you transplant when there wasn't one before?

And let the demonic sacrifice jokes begin.

Has anyone heard "elementary" pronounced "el-mEN-Tary"? I had a customer today who works at a local elementary school and that's how she pronounced it.

So add one more to his body count, that being whomever he nosed out on the list. but I'm sure it was all completely above board.
