Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Art Crawl!!!
Walking home from the bus tonight I saw an actual bulldog riding an actual skateboard.
It was very cool.

More evidence that (some) people are no damn good. Friends had their computers burglarized in Brooklyn. They had a theory as to who the burglar was that did not interest the police because (the cop pretty much said this) the person they suspected was white. OK, thanks to some help from the Buffistas they actually found one of the computers - erased the data when the thief went on line. The cops still were not interested, when given the address where the stolen property was. Meanwhile the NYPD has funding for this huge demographics unit that infiltrates Mosques and Muslim groups that extends its reach to New Jersey and to Boston. And the NYPD now has an office or precinct in Israel. I guess cause there are no law enforcement or intelligence agents in Israel who have any interest in terrorism aimed at NYC. I can see how tracking down burglars is dull in comparison.

He's a giant ball of smoosh. I'd like to get him a little less so (Pumpkin's helped, some), but he'll always be plush and squishable.

My mother confuses me. She just emailed me that my passport had the year of birth wrong. Uh, no? It says '75, not '76. I go look at the last time I sent them a scan and...it's high enough quality that it clearly is '75. BESIDES, I have travelled through 4 countries on this passport in the past 7 years, YOU WOULD THINK SOMEONE'D NOTICE!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
On the flip side, NYPD did catch the guys who were vandalizing cars and stealing bikes in my Brooklyn neighborhood a few weeks back, so it's not like the whole department is just sitting on their hands waiting for 9/11 part 2.

Sure they are not doing nothing. But it does seem like some of this becoming national and international cops is poor prioritization. Wasting resources they could use to do their own jobs to do someone elses's, and do someone else's badly. it is a critique of the institution - not of every single cop. But it really is terrible that burglary is such a non-priority they are not even interested when given the address of stolen property. And if it were because resources were tight that would be one thing. But at the same time nothing will be done about burglaries they have an office in Israel. The fact that they have not gone out of business and still do crime fighting does make this something not worth criticizing.
