So, I see SG has added another useless feature: a slightly different picture viewer (although not really -- it just looks different, and I guess it also doubles as a Flash player. Flash blows. Yes, I can even find a reason to complain about Macromedia Flash. So sue me!) 
But on a newsy tip, this is from The Irish Independent this morning:

Guantanamo Bay-hell!
What if we evicted all the Cubans to, I don't know -say Puerto Rico, and just took over the whole island of Cuba? The Bush administration could turn the island into a prison and the Cubans that won't leave can be the first prisoners. Then we could send down the huge segment of the US population that is serving time from this stupid 'war on drugs'. Prison costs across our country could go way down...no need to feed or house the new cuban prisoners, just destroy anything trying to leave the island. Fuck 'em - let 'em fend for theirselves!
Whew...
The things our current administration finds acceptable amaze me.
The Irish Independent??

Yes, ma'm. I will only read one book at a time.
I hate MySpace. It was with thrilling excitement that I deleted my account there.

I've traveled quite a lot on airplanes myself...
and as i get older, i do tend to get more nervous..
my mothers advice was always "If the plane is going down, put your head
between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye"
doesn't help calm my nerves either

Gee, I only thought Florida was worthy of being blown off the map, but it looks like Houston (my hometown) is placing itself within my missile range. Kenneth Lay was immediately forgiven by the business and socialite elite in Houston, and now it looks like his heart attack was such sad news to many Houstonian Christian nuts. I also do not revel in the deaths...

Is anyone else's mail buggy as all fuck?! I keep getting new mail notices, but there ain't shit there that's new.

Good gravy, you're ever so anti-Kiki Dee. It's always "KIki Dee sucks" and "Kiki Dee blows"...it's a wonder that you have any time at all to criticise anything else in life!
Mind you, I admire the hell out of you for the focus that you have. By spreading my angst too thinly, no one individual ever really feels my complete wrath. And, really, that brings a tear to my eye.
Going to see a movie soon. Doo-dah, doo-dah!

Ahh, that Afterbirth...he's quite the card. All the 7th graders find him and his dick jokes high-larious!
I went to see Overlord. Not a great film, but I was glad to have seen it, anyway. For once, I actually agreed with the reviewer from the weekly Stranger newspaper.

Hmmm. A new set from Aiki. She's one of my faves. I'll be sure to see if it's any good.
So, how was everyone's 4th? I went to my friend Brynn's house, as per every year lately. She and her boyfriend, Jared, are nice enough to have me and my husband over for some Johnsonville brats (that's a type of sausage -- not annoying...

actually.... you are a very good writer...
i love the smell of roasted coffee too, especially just walking into
the door at Starbucks.
for some reason, it smells better to me if someone else is brewing it.
i once thought i was in love with a man out in n.y.c, but it was pretty much
obsessive infatuation and codependancy....
thank the gods i grew out of it.
I didn't want to end up like Glen Close in Fatal attraction

Let me specify: Roasted tomatoes and adzuki beans. Yum!
Whew, folks! Looks like we're surviving another brush with interstellar death. Nothing like a little smashy smashy to shake things up a bit.

Is It a Bird? Is It a Plane? No, It's a Giant Asteroid

Murphey's Law applies to all things - shower slashers, hidden cameras, and giant rocks hurtling towards Earth.
{There was an image here that mildly related to cameras and being photographed unawares, hence the rambling spiel below. I try not to soapbox out of the blue if I can help it.}

Who's ready for some Miami Vice -- movie style? I bet Don Johnson's pissed that some punk Irish man nympho is playing his role. I saw the poster for the movie on the subway platform, and I thought, "I can't believe that's being turned into a movie." I used to watch the show religiously in the 80's, even though the violence used to freak me...

When you guys are all in VT, I want you to take a picture for us just like the one in my journal. Be sure to give your 110%

trust me..
i'm right there with ya..
struggling to breathe on an everyday basis can make one mighty bitchy as an individual (i'm speaking for
myself here)
i too wish i could walk around with those breathe right strips on all day.
at night sometimes i get so frustrated i just stick a wad of tissue up my nose to distract
me!
i was hoping the surgery would be a success, but it only helped it slightly..
i can however smell a bit more since having it done.
maybe it would have healed better if i was a nonsmoker.
or perhaps they did not chisel enough bone and cartilage out of there....
I need another nose job!
hope you are enjoying your weekend so far...
I liked "The Others" too... nice old fashioned ghost story

I don't have anything thrilling to say. The weather here has been scuzzy: hot, humid, or flat-out raining shitbuckets. My plants have suffered major casualties due to the abundance of moisture in the air and soil, and the complete lack of sunlight. It's been better today, but supposedly not for long. It took me 5 trains to get to work this morning due to L...

i love that movie!
its silly and campy but right on target...
and its funny as all hell.
I'm not picky about films which is why i would be a horrible film critic!
if it even mildy entertains me, i just can't bad mouth it

What a day! Have you ever had to go out with someone, knowing full and well that you were pretty poor, but wanted to play it off as if you weren't? If not, go fuck yourself. This isn't the place for you. But if so, it can be pretty stressful, right? The whole time the other person is talking to you, you're adding up what...

Well, then, you're just cruel. Do my mucus-clogged sinues mean nothing to you? Fortunately, I did buy a gallon of orange juice last night. All of that vitamin C goodness is bound to conquer the evil cold to Kingdom Come.
And how are you on this Saturday, Ms. Ho?

Fine, just ruin my vitamin C fantasies with your "facts" and "realities." I thought that we had entered a new world where gut feelings and discussions with God served as the basis for all of our actions, but, apparently, you still maintain a bizarre devotion to observational science!
Ahh, The Misfits...I think that that was the final film for both Gable and Monroe. Is it any good?

Your recent posts continue the tradition of laughter inducement. Kevyn Aucoin?? Who the hell is that? 
i had to hold onto my moms stash of pills for a while, as once my younger brother sold a bunch of her pills on her
she was not too pleased with him...
especially because he came home with some brand new spanking clothes shortly
after selling them!
when i tried to speak to him about it, he actually said this..
"Well, she had enough of them..."
sad when your mom has to hide her own painkillers
