2 thoughts for today:

It's all distraction: social security, gay marriage, abortion, Iraqi elections...What are your self-interests and how do they control your attention? Who's making money off your averted gaze?

I just discovered another beautiful use for the hot shot water heater. Until now it had made my cups of tea with aplomb, yet humbly did it sit next to the coffee makers - the stars of the kitchen counter. But no more! No more, I tell you!
Today, the hot shot became a hot saki maker!
