    Rats! I’m Philip Jose’ Farmer

    January 29, 2007 - By ginny

    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.

    Happy Feet and a Half Rack at the All Night Strut

    January 29, 2007 - By ginny

    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…

    Kill All Kung-Fu Bunnies!!!

    January 22, 2007 - By ginny

    Boing Boing: Web Zen: barnyard zen Apparently, BoingBoing's Xeni Jardin is teh delightfully evul, yet inadvertently clueless n00b. She posted a link to a "Kung Fu Bunnies" webanime to that high-traffic group blog and "directory of wonderful things" that plays this incredibly annoying "Kung Fu Fighting" soundtrack/clip with sound effects. Problem is, it plays automagically every time I read BoingBoing via Bloglines, and I could not figure out where the hell it was coming from. And it plays over iTunes and Windows Media. Identifying the problem is more than halfway to solving it, but…weird.  UPDATE: I had a nice email…

    Why Is Utah The Dumping Ground For Immorality?

    January 20, 2007 - By ginny

    3 pregnant teens accused in Utah attack – Crime & Punishment – MSNBC.com The home, which is a place for struggling pregnant teens, is in Utah County, about 30 miles south of Salt Lake City. Pregnant teens are typically sent there by parents to get away from problems with drugs or boyfriends, and they attend class and learn about prenatal care, childbirth and adoption while staying at the home, according to police. This kind of story comes up over and over in Utah. Some outfit sets up a group home, or a camp, or a wilderness experience for various kinds…

    Get Fuzzy is particularly funny today. Sometimes, the payoff is in the second panel, and what happens in the third panel is mostly left to the imagination.

  • Insurance season is almost over, thank Dog

    Avoid health sharing plans, they're not that great a deal. A friend had one while getting some pretty serious treatment, and he struggled to get the care he needed.

    Elisabeth Yoder and her son Darragh recently experienced a huge gap in their health care "coverage." They stand in  front of the family home, and they belong to a Christian "health sharing" plan that didn't reimburse for a recent ambulance ride.

  • Charm Patch Quilt: On Point

    From Sew Can She - this looks like a great way to use up charm squares and scraps that can be at least 4 1/2-5 inches square. The contrast fabric and on-point arrangement add good visual interest without being too busy.

  • Tea Towel Hems

    Bought some tea towels for gifts, looking for tutorials for adding colorful hanging cuffs after hemming.

    I lean toward Method 1, mitred corners. Will decide once the towels arrive in case the selvage edges are good quality.

  • Sorry About The Mess: Trump Wrecking World Economy

    Post: He’s nuts if he thinks manufacturers will move to the US; they like paying rock bottom non-union wages and they’ll pass the higher costs to American consumers. Lose-lose! What can possibly go wrong?

    Since he lives in his own bubble universe, I’m wondering how long his big donors, the few relatively sane conservatives in Congress, and his “IKEA cabinet” will hold out until the murmurs behind the scenes become screaming fights in the Oval Office.

    Spine of steel? Nope. Skull of rock.

    Maury Povich lie detector meme: It says here… Trump is as dumb as a box of rocks.

    Global economy rocked again as rates on imports to the US from dozens of trading partners rose further, with China hit by 104% tariffs

  • Now Listening: Joni Mitchell | Black Crow

    Joni Mitchell album cover Black Crow. A woman is superimposed over an empty road that leads into her silhouette.

    Text:

     

    ”Black Crow - There's a crow flying Black and ragged Tree to tree He's black as the highway that's leading me Now he's diving down To pick up on something shiny I feel like that black crow Flying In a blue sky I took the ferry to the highway Then I drove to a pontoon plane I took a plane to a taxi And a taxi to a train I've been traveling so long How'm I ever gonna know my home When I see it again I'm like a black crow flying In a blue blue sky In search of love and music My whole life has been Illumination Corruption And diving diving diving diving Diving down to pick up on every shiny thing Just like that black crow flying In a blue sky I looked at the morning After being up all night I looked at my haggard face in the bathroom light I looked out the window And I I saw that ragged soul take flight I saw a back crow flying In a blue sky Oh I'm like a black crow flying In a blue sky”
