Even a broken clock.
Even if you’re a righty like me, you can respect something the EU has done recently. Update: It’s final.
They’re already here.
So I took my grandmother to see “War of the Worlds” this evening, and I have the pleasure to report that Spielberg apparently got those “Terminal” doldrums out of his system. Beautifully shot by (once again) Janusz Kaminski, with unbelievable special effects which, while maybe not pushing the envelope necessarily, …
The past has fleet feet.
And in an age where computers roam the Internet automtically archiving your thoughts, and invariably it becomes easier to authenticate them, be careful what you post.
Coolest dog in the land.
I’m taking the whole family to see IKE and Cliff Hillis at the Cooldog Concert Series this Sunday afternoon. This will be a totally brilliant show and I urge you to drop all your other plans to attend. Go to the Cooldog web site for information on how to RSVP …
Reason #53 why it’s embarrassing to be a geek.

One man’s trash is another man’s trepidation.
Eleya holds our very first Garden Bazaar today. The sale of our Sundries and Trinkets, amassed over half our lifetime, will hopefully render enough Coinage to allow us to flee the drudgery of this awful domain and start a new life in America. Thus far she have collected a Grand …
Snippets fresh from the scissors.
The food chain that eats its own tail. To Chris’ post on bacteria-devouring virii, I say why not? After all, we already have oil-eating bacteria. What puzzles me is, why can’t we just eliminate the middleman and pass the savings on to you? Revisionism on revisions. I hate CVS. I …
Girlie-men need not apply.
I’m feeling pretty proud of myself, having fixed our powder room toilet, which over the past few months haw gradually suffered a decline in its ability to refill after flushing. I had previously replaced the stopcock assembly and checked the whole thing for leaks, but with no effect. Turns out …
