Worked on upgrading the church website yesterday, also ran out and got my eyebrows did at the local day spa after lunch with a good friend. Nice day for upgrades, too.

Candidate Tim D’Annunzio, running for Congress in NC, is so far gone in religious mania that the local GOP is circulating docs from his divorce to show how much crazy he brings. His prayers were not answered, he’s in a runoff, we’ll need more popcorn. Christ’s War: A Simple Choice. Most of his blogposts consist of lengthy Bible quotes, but his beliefs tend toward the “watched too much Stargate while obsessively highlighting texts in the KJV” end of the spectrum. His political statements are quite possibly the most seriously disturbing views I’ve ever seen made public by a viable candidate.…

It’s harder than I thought to donate my recently-shorn hair to the charity that turns hair and pet fur clippings into oil-spill booms. They require that you sign up first, then wait to be sent an address for shipping. And they really discourage individuals from donating; they prefer bulk shipments from salons and groomers. Meanwhile their storage facilities are getting backed up near the Gulf, as BP didn’t want to accept the donated booms. The hell? So maybe they’ll send straight to the Louisiana Wetlands people? Welcome to Matter Of Trust.

Getting some traction on taking the church blog and turning it into the main website for St Nick’s. It’s quite difficult to migrate a domain from Yahoo.com to GoDaddy.com as it is, but the former web admin (who’s moving on to be ordained as a deacon soon) struggled with the Yahoo side. Finally, finally he was able to call us so David could try to walk him through it. Whew. Found a great theme, though: Shadowbox.

While my husband David was out of town, I had a chance to get caught up on a few shows that were spooled up in TiVo, ready to watch. One of these was HBO’s Treme, and I had the chance to watch the first three episodes all at once. When I came up for air, I felt like I’d been dunked in the floodwaters and come up a new person. Treme is densely layered, and cultural associations are thrown out offhandedly in practially every line, every scene. What did the comments about the different kinds of music mean? What was…

Just bought these at Lowe’s, after trying them on with socks. Without socks, every step makes a fart sound. Time to go fart around in the garden! Fartfartfartfartfartfartfartfartfartfartfart UPDATE: And so, I have finally committed shoe crime, not with ugly, yet trendy Crocs, but with ugly, unfashionable flatulent Sloggers ™. The really irritating thing is that there are actually some cute gardening clogs and rain boots at that site, but the cheapo “Nautica Blue” ones Lowe’s sells are the farty ones. I’ll have to drill or melt some decorative little ventilation holes to try to cut down on the flatulence,…

The disgusting “anchor baby” argument raises its ugly, badly supported head in the Utah runoff campaign between the two Republicans. Constitution be damned! That pesky 14th amendment was really about establishing the citizenship of former slaves, after all. Apparently the Constitution was framed by our Founders for whites only, according to these yobbos. I can only hope that the Utah electorate is smart enough to figure this out but… What am I thinking? With a dominant culture that discourages critical thinking, and an educational system that is very much a product of the culture, it’s likely that the next senator…
