Cyclones. Earthquakes. And now - ants who attack electronics.
I'll be in my bunker if you need me.
Totally unrelated, but also fascinating: the woman who cannot forget. Photographic memory isn't quite as cool as roleplaying games made it out to be.

Ok, so now I'm filled with anticipation those ants could migrate elsewhere. Do anteaters make good pets?

thanx..I think I am more sad than angry though...not to say I haven't thought of kicking some one's teeth in though
Combine the following:
1) Working late almost every day for the past two weeks;

It pretty much depends on which part of the state. Where I live, when I was growing up. It rained at the same time every day during the summer. Now, we're lucky to get what we get.
I guess mother nature took that whole sunshine state theme to heart.

I'm really disgusted with my home state this morning. I'm feeling very... bitter. Ah, irony.
No more politics for me for at least a couple of weeks, I think.
In other news, I was bummed to discover that running biodiesel voids the warranty on any new, clean-diesel vehicle. Here I was foolishly hoping to get the best of both worlds.

You must be using air balloons. Cause, it's been dry here for damn weeks now.

I'm glad that you liked the Fatality + Ginary set that I shot! Thanks for the lovely comment!
Moving heavy object does strange things to the mind. Like making you unreasonably, deliriously happy about fitting a queen sized boxspring into a seventy year old elevator.

It's much older than 70 years! There are dinosaurs in the basement that pull the cables to make it go up and down.
In the spirit of ABC's utterly awful presidential debate, Slate offers Six Degrees of Adolf Hilter.
I can't wait for someone to ask Senator Clinton how she explains her association with multiple people who knew Hitler directly!
Oh, the shame, the shame!

Well I guess I can't complain any longer about how robotics researchers can't get one to walk. Behold,
BigDog.
Observations:
1) I think it actually walks more like a mule than a dog (and wouldn't Mule be a more accurate name, anyway?)
2) On the one hand, it would be significantly less creepy if it had a head. On the other hand, a head...

I doubt I am going to make it either...school is being shitty to me.
Nothing reminds a writer of time so much as running across some old work you did. From like, a year ago.

Also, Bourbon and Branch fucking rules.
Okay, I'm not at all interested in the whole Spitzer scandal, but of course they had to ask the presidential candidates about it:
Sen. Hillary Clinton said she had no comment on New York Governor Eliot Spitzer's possible involvement in a prostitution ring.

Thanks for commenting on my Volcanic Ruins set! You left such a nice comment
I'm still working late, I'm still insanely busy.
But somebody sent me this blog today, and I had to share.
