I've spent the afternoon learning how much Photoshop I've actually forgotten. Ack!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I just had to go on the offensive for a local mom who posted, "what are the pros and cons of vaccination?" Pros: not dying from a preventable disease. Cons: none.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Nora, I'm still trying to figure out what happened to my co-worker last week. I have googled and googled and asked my boss and so far nothing. Her funeral is set for late in the month, I couldn't tell from the announcement if we are invited or not.

I'll be in the office tomorrow, so maybe I'll get a better understanding then.

Amy, my friend Jon writes bar trivia--he charges $20 for a set of 20 questions.

I hate the non-confrontational people that respond:"do your own research and make the best decision for your family." Fuck that! Having access to the internet does not make you a researcher. Vaccinate!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You could link her to that website that keeps track of how many people Jenny McCarthy has killed.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

As for vaccinations, My mother got polio after the Salk vaccine came out. When I first heard of people saying there might be a connection between autism and some vaccines, I decided that they are worth the risk. My family would get whatever vaccines the doctors recommend. Full stop. And at the same time I do like to be aware of potential side effects.ETA: And now of course, I am convinced that there is no causality from vaccines to autism.

You could also give her this link to a chart that clearly shows the link between autism and organic food sales:
