I bet people were saying, "Kids these days... with the back talking and the loud church bells they listen to...."

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
w00t! The refi on our house finally came through! Which is extra-awesome, because so did the tax bill where the IRS apparently totally failed to remember that we set up a payment plan with them.
SWINTON!
Wow.
Doesn't she look like an alien princess from Flash Gordon or Buck Rogers in those first three?
Yay on the refi, amych!
After an oyster supper on New Year’s Eve, 1945, four friends including my great-uncle "came to Sussex at midnight and woke up the village by ringing St. Alban’s (Episcopal) Church bells.
Heh. And uh-oh. Didn't they use to ring the church bells to warn of fire and invasions and whatnot? After dealing with WWII, I bet the Sussex villagers were not entirely amused. Especially if the four friends didn't bring any of that oyster washing liquid to share.

One of my favorite aesthetics!
Or something in a Servalan.
Holy shit, Google's logo today celebrates the birthday of Robert Moog. And it's a playable Moog synthesizer and you can twiddle the knobs and record it on a tiny reel to reel!
Phoo. I distinctly remember, shortly after Iman and Bowie's daughter was born, someone on LJ reposting a series of family portraits they had done, including Iman nuzzling her tiny boo and a couple of Bowie, shirtless to provide skin-to-skin contact, cradling her to his heart. They were utterly, utterly gorgeous and I bookmarked them just for the stunning beautiful familyness, but that was sadly several jobs and many, many work computers ago, long before I figured out how to import bookmarks. And now I can't find them anywhere.
There is this, which is quite nice but very shirt-wearing, but it's sadly the best I could manage.
Hey look, there's even a Space Princess Manifesto.

The Iron Man should just be scotch, rocks. No mixers and fruity shit to dilute it.
