Cynically, I was actually surprised the whole "shooting at a Christian college" wasn't getting more news, in the "OMG WE ARE PERSECUTED" sort of way. I mean, I'm sure it did, on some sites, but not any of the ones I read.
Wasn't the shooter a student of the college who had recently dropped out? Still a terrible thing, don't get me wrong, but I don't think he was shooting them for being Christian.
(Almost) all of the above is why I'm feeling the need for a media embargo soon. You guys will tell me if an asteroid is due to hit earth, right?
I assume if Clovis takes over, I'll get an email.

Yes, but since when do the facts get in the way of the outraged blogosphere?
Of course, I was just off rolling my eyes about Rick Santorum and his "California Universities don't even teach American History, it's EEEVIL!" thing.
Smonster, do you have an iPhone? I've been using a free app called"Antimoustique" when I ramble around outside the apartment and haven't been bitten so far.
Huh, I might have to check that out.
Happy birthday, Tom!

(When they catch 'em, it's generally some dude that reminds me of George Zimmerman, too. Kinda chinless and pathetic. Not that he hasn't been up to *quite enough*, so I'm not saying he did that.)
severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings here. still at work though, just sitting by the big window. would like an interior location, please.
I no longer feel quite so old, and unpretty might be the wrong word, but unsomething.
smonster, for the bites you do have, may I recommend Benadryl ointment? I get bitten a lot and it helps me. If I slather it on right after I'm bitten, sometimes I don't even get a swelling or itch.
Santorum has also announced that California universities don't teach American history. Flat wrong.
Here's a story about one of those politicized undercover sting operations that was blocked by a sensibly suspicious union organizer:

Apparently wingnut activist undercover videographer is a legitimate career track now...
Consuela - I don't think that is the link you intended.
