Destination Creation» Blog Archive » Reality Simpsons: The Family They all look like my cow-orkers. Really. Lisa looks just like this woman from another team who pretty much smiles like that constantly, although her hair isn’t spiky. Bart looks… disturbingly like someone who’s been on my team before and has bounced to and from several other teams – too smart for his own good, he gets bored and likes change. Even Maggie looks like someone, although the person I have in mind is a lot older and a LOT more talkative. Marge looks like Lisa, but also resembles the one…

Boing Boing: Objectophiles who harbor passionate sexual love for buildings… Cory Doctorow: Der Spiegel has an article on the theories of Volkmar Sigusch, a German researcher whose studies of “neo-sexuality” have led him to assemble case-studies of men and women who fall in deep, passionate, sexual love with objects, from the Berlin Wall and the Twin Towers to a toy steam engine. Back in 1979, Eklöf tied the knot with the Berlin Wall and legally changed her name to mark the occasion (“Mauer” means “Wall” in German). Ever since she was eight years old, Sandy K. was hopelessly in love…

This looks good – we would try it with the yogurt and without the cilantro, as my husband David can't have the sour cream and doesn't like the taste of cilantro. Simply Recipes: Chicken Curry in a Hurry Recipe If you want to use yogurt instead of sour cream, just make sure that the yogurt sauce never simmers. If it does, it will curdle. 1 Tbsp corn, grapeseed, or olive oil 1 medium onion, sliced 1/3 cup golden raisins (optional) Salt and freshly ground pepper 1 1/2 teaspoons yellow curry powder, or to taste 4 skinless, boneless, chicken breast halves…

Father Jake Stops the World: An Ethic of Transparency Hello. My name is Terry Martin, and I am an eclectic and sometimes eccentric Episcopal priest. I'm the one in the picture not wearing purple. I would imagine that most of you recognize the gentleman standing with me. This must have been a tough step to take, as "Father Jake's Place" can be pretty rambunctious when the comment threads get longer and longer… Terry's anonymity protected him in some ways, and hindered him in others, I guess. Although I still think Brother Causticus should probably remain a mysterious figure, because he's…

This little item caught my eye: CW Blog: Irregular Blogging by Irregular Writers …: Urning Potential Evidently, the editors at the Provo Daily Herald have realized how useless online surveys are and have just whimsically started asking whatever nonsense questions pop into their heads. Here’s this week’s bizarre poll: Which statement best describes your view on cremation? ( ) Makes resurrection difficult; cremation should be avoided ( ) Cremation should be encouraged; God doesn’t care … because, of course, there are people in the United States who, after much thought, have realized that cremation is just a huge incovenience…

Boing Boing: Keyboard waffle-iron My husband David would love it if someone would send him a box of frozen QWERTY keyboard waffles. I’m sure they would be delicious and yummy and it would be fun to “type” while eating, although it would be pretty messy. I’m just sayin’. [tags]BoingBoing, waffles[/tags]

UnNews:Pastafarians celebrate National Day of ARRRRRRRRRRRR – Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia CORVALLIS, Oregon — Oregon State University (OSU) hosted the country’s largest and only congregation of Pastafarians to participate in the US government’s National Day of Prayer celebration. While the FlyingSpaghetti Monster and his high-cholesterol suffering followers are still not yet recognized by any of the world’s legitimate governments, it is still considered a more believable religion than Scientology and all its stupid Alien DC-9s and Thetan crap. Darn! I totally missed this shit! Well done, OSU, our pants are off to you! Maybe we can all have spaghetti for…

According to Joey The Accordion Guy the official fight song of the Internet should be that instantly recognizable classic, the "Amok Time" fight scene music where Kirk and Spoke duke it out with various bizarre weapons so Spock can marry his betrothed… and all that that implies. Like the Vulcan ritual that the music underscored, most internet arguments are triggered by a response in the most primitive parts of our brains, look silly to outsiders and seem to be taken up by people who are slated to have sex once every seven years. My favorite weapon was always when T'Pol…
