I did, however, get in and ride a…

Flickr’s been bugging me to update my log-in from the “old skool” ID I originally built to a Yahoo-based ID. So I did it, and then after it was too late, they airily mention on the “welcome to the new skool” landing page that any API-based Flickr tools and applications I may have might not work anymore. Oh. Well, thank you for warning me in advance. ecto uses a very handy and important-to-me API app that pulls in photos from Flickr very easily so I can post them, and also eventually I’ll get the Photo Album plug-in working on my…

They keep bringing up these damn amendments because… they're obsessed with it. Alamogordo Daily News – Republicans: Stop thinking about gay sex It seems to me Republicans spend more time thinking about gay sex than any other group of people in the known world even more so than gay people trying to find other gay people with whom to have sex.

I am: Philip José Farmer This prolific author brings surprising depths to he-man adventure tales, and broke science fiction’s prudery barrier. Which science fiction writer are you? This is all very well, but I was shooting for either Keith Laumer, Alexei Panshin, James M. Tiptree., or C.J. Cherryh. As seen at DDtB.

The All Night Strut We went to see the latest offering in our season ticket series at the Marriott Lincolnshire Theater – and like many times before went in not knowing what to expect, and came out smiling. “All Night Strut” is a revue – it’s one of those pastiche shows with a lot of songs, a lot of dancing, and no plot, story, or structure to get in the way. It’s framed by vignettes with a clown figure called “Coda,” who introduces the show, plays around with lights, music, and dancers, and gets up to gently amusing mischief. Here’s…

Riley looks just like this when he's grabbed his favorite boingy-boingy toy in his mouth and tries to walk off with it before getting pulled back by the elastic cord. Just now David was playing with him upstairs and we had a case of "wacky cat" right on the bed. Riley went completely spazzy for the toy, and we were lounging at either end of it just laughing hysterically at him. Then he collided with the laptop and decamped for the relative safety of the floor. Funny little kitty!

I’m at the end of my third week of the 6-week fitness deal I got through work,and it’s quite evident that it’s starting to pay off. I’ve lost a few pounds, but more importantly, I’ve gained muscle mass, or at least muscle tone. Last week’s tally: I was somewhat slack at the beginning of the week, especially when I missed my original personal trainer session. But I picked up and got in Tuesday night, Wednesday night, Thursday morning, had a trainer session that day, and yesterday morning. Plus, today David and I got in to Bally’s, and I did a…
