Sometimes I worry that my life lacks drama. I suppose this is one of the things you come to terms with as you age, but I’ve noticed a precipitous drop in the suspenseful storytelling between me and my friends, our summaries of our weekends. Instead of being dramatic, gossipy, part of an intricately woven web of stormy relationships and ill-fated adventures, most of the information...

“All I ask of you is one thing: please don’t be cynical. I hate cynicism — it’s...”

Miss Kelly Sue hepped me to this.
Everywhere is a big fat joke.
Wait. DAD CURSED!?!?!? Plus, Butte was pretty gorgeous. (Wasn’t that where I ate the pickled egg?)

Proud of where I live? Who cares? I don’t.
St. Louis can suck it for all I care. But I’m sure the same can be said of anywhere.
Everywhere has its quirks and weird shit. Some of that weird shit is funny and true. Fuck it. Some of the other shit is stupid and...
Obama, House Republicans Debate Their Divisions →
theconceptlibrarian:
Today, the President walked into a House Republican retreat in Baltimore, told them he believed that the American People “didn’t send us to Washington to fight each other in some sort of steel-cage match to see who comes out alive,” that he was tired of fighting, and proceeded to field questions. Except for the brief speech, the whole thing was unscripted.
I think that’s...
Sissy's Anniversary! →
On January 26, 2000, Sissy arrived at the Sanctuary underweight, shy and insecure. Many times it is hard to imagine the life she endured before coming here. Years of living alone with only a tire to comfort her, being swept away in a flood while living in Gainesville, TX, and the horrific El Pazo Zoo “training session” video that found its way into the press and sparked a national outrage that...

Word, girl. iPad? Really? Did the Nerd Herd that created it even pop into the obviously oblivious marketing department before they released it to mention that iPad...

Ask My Brother To Tell You His Story About The Dad... →
Also, this clip is in German so it’s, like, a zillion times better.
Also, also, you can buy the daughter’s outfit RIGHT NOW at Urban Outfitters.

He had Mozart, and now who does he have?

What the Greeks were saying is that we have divine fire, whatever is divine is in us, as humans. We are as good as the Gods. The Gods are capricious and mean and foolish and stupid and jealous and rapine and all the things that Greek mythology show us that they are. And Shelley quite rightly understood that mythological idea, that the champion of real humanity and of real humanism,...
Cadbury Ain't What It Used To Be →
I can’t help but think that with the Kraft takeover of Cadbury, Brit sweets just won’t be the same. This video from “The Sunday Night Project” isn’t much of a consolation, but it does feature Lily Allen.
Night One
Baby, you’re already lucky.
Now go get ‘em, Larry.

Welp, I’m in Seattle. Just getting ready for bed and tuning out the day. Nice, bright & early (8 am) call time - should be a good, full day. Wish me luck!
