At this rate it could become a habit.
Nothing venomous this time. I’ve mentioned solifuges before — even built a Magic deck* around them — and today we got a visit from what appears to have become my totem arthropod,** locally known as a sun spider. Apparently, alas, this was a victim of a recent round […]

Egypt has officially made “female circumcision” (genital mutilation) illegal. It’s done, apparently, at least in part by religious nitwits who believe it helps keep girls from having sex. Doctors who perform the operation in the future will face arrest and prosecution.
Needless to say, were such a practice common in the US, the goddishly retarded would […]
Tragic, Sad … or Just Creepy?
Published by June 27th, 2007 in You Must be F***ing Kidding. 2 CommentsTara Smith, a ScienceBlogger, posted a story about a girl in her early 20s who went in for a Brazilian bikini wax. This is the one that pours hot wax on your Most Sensitive Areas, then uses strips of cotton to — with a great deal of pain — strip away all hair, leaving you […]
Reality Check? (3 of 5)
Published by June 27th, 2007 in Reality Trumps 'God', O, Pine With Me and One Thousand Words. 2 CommentsKurt Vonnegut, in Cat’s Cradle, wrote of the world’s end.
It came through a bizarre molecular structure, a “new” way for water to freeze at room temperature, melting only at about 114 or so degrees Fahrenheit. A crystal of this Ice-Nine fell into the sea, followed by what he described as The Great Ah-Whoom, the sound […]
I forgot that I entered some of the hospital’s ads into a couple of design competitions for 2006. Healthcare Marketing Report handed out a Merit Award — basically a thanks for participating — but Aster awarded me a silver, which ain’t too crappy.
Both were for the same ad, oddly enough, a 6×5 newspaper piece in […]
Seems my version of WordPress is waaaay out of date. Like nearly a year, which in Net years is like a skillion yrz ftw omfg.
Thing is this is a custom hack of K2 and WP in several ways — anyone got ideas on how I can update the site without having to rebuild every dang […]
The Language of Officiousness
Published by June 21st, 2007 in O, Pine With Me and One Thousand Words. 2 CommentsSometimes the oddest things just irk me.
This sign is present outside of an area where various things are loaded and unloaded in the hospital’s hallway. Some of those things would seem very attractive to certain types of individual. The sign is there, of course, to basically keep honest people honest; a dedicated malfeasant wouldn’t give […]

Published by June 19th, 2007 in Reality Trumps 'God', O, Pine With Me and One Thousand Words. 3 CommentsI had a boyfriend who was bashed, before I knew him. He was beaten with a bat and left for dead in a Dumpster. His skull was fractured in the attack, his jaw and teeth were badly damaged, and he lost a testicle. He was found and taken to an ER. A few more hours […]
The story is about a major international kiddy-porn ring being shut down.
OK, so check out the list of “related links” arranged at the end of the article.
Seems to me that sharing their “Summer of Love” photos is why these guys are going to prison.

I Hate Burger King.
Published by June 15th, 2007 in General Foolishness and Advertising Matters. 4 CommentsNot because they’re just behind McFuckwit’s for nationally-artery-choking success.
Goddamn it, they did this commercial — and I just love the hell out of the music.
The creepy, capering guy in the fiberglass mask I can do without — but damn, that’s some good fingerwork on that banjo. No burger joint in the world has a right […]
Naked Brothers Band Having Sex With Their Preteen Lolita Phone Numbers Boys and Girls Naked Hentai!
Published by June 15th, 2007 in Snarks. ClosedJust fucking with the inlink stats. Christ, I’m tired of getting hits from pervs looking for preteen porn just because I posted something on NBB n+now fucking months ago.
I get search hits for hentai, naked brothers band having sex, boys and girls having sex and other things even less savory. My one NBB post is […]
Reality Check? (1 of 5)
Published by June 15th, 2007 in Reality Trumps 'God', O, Pine With Me and One Thousand Words. 3 CommentsCommenting on the institutional lunacy of the Bush administration got me thinking. I still can’t imagine any reason they’d be pressing so hard for useless wars on so many fronts — unless they sincerely believed that their behavior was going to facilitate their mythical Armageddon, followed by an equally-foolish “rapture”.
But if you look around the […]
