It was almost time. Mary Lou had been working here for years, but since she had heard about what had been happening to the people of this town recently, she was concerned. The Black Virus had been turning the population into soulless vessels. For now, she felt secure; but outside those doors, she could hear the low growl of them coming. “One more day,” she thought, “before I finally get.. Read More
Choosing Heroes
This has been going around: While I feel like Pat Tilman may have been another good (only because it’s more modern) comparison, the bottom line is still true. A lot of the commentary I see about this meme isn’t, though. People blame the singer and they blame this generation of kids. Justin Beiber is the last person to blame. In fact, unlike the generation of kids currently growing up, thinking.. Read More
Gifts for Little Girls: GoldieBlox
I saw this post earlier and thought it was a great idea! I spent hours with Lincoln Logs as a kid. This would’ve been awesome as well if it’d been around: “Smart” toys get a big thumbs up from me – especially ones like this which help train the developing brain to think about problem solving, and especially for females. Although I don’t intend to have children, I would buy.. Read More
Full-of-it Fuel
What a novel invention! Now, girls, your next task is to invent one that runs on “number two”. I know enough full-of-it folk to power your country and mine. xoxo
The Garden of Readin’
You know, anything that ever gets “banned”, immediately becomes like “forbidden fruit”. Everyone and their mother will trample each other just to get a glance at the source of the scandal themselves – even if it’s something that would fail to pique their interest otherwise. This is an actual event – one of many. There are plenty of legal/uncensored violence, sex, drugs, and blasphemy books. People are naturally just drawn.. Read More
Dexter: Morgan Minus McKay
Originally, I thought Dexter has to kill Hannah by the season’s end because she doesn’t fit the “redeeming quality” code that a loveable serial killer has to have. She merely kills for thrills and therefore fails to fit the bill. Also, it’d be a total transgression against Deb if she lived on and she and Dex stayed together, so she has to die. The question is “how”. Anyway, I don’t.. Read More
Portable Porn
Conversations on a meme regarding search trends: It was just a guess on my part. Technically the iphone was released in 2007. I’d guess it took a year to gain popularity. Anyone else is welcome to offer alternative ideas… xoxo
Evil Bread: Army of Dark Toast
There just aren’t any words to augment today’s entry. You must just watch: I just like how it shoots up flames after she gives it a little “push” – not to be outdone, however, by her zinger comment at the end 🙂 xoxo
MINDBLOW: Makeup Manipulation
Not even 24 hours later, the answer to yesterday’s blog came to me. Why do we love makeup? The same reason we acquire men (or women)… or anything else we get for that matter, only to realize it isn’t right for us until it’s too late. Sure, the “substance” might be nice, but that’s not why we want it. My sophomore year graphic design teacher had it right when she.. Read More
Pedobear Documentary
Watching a documentary on men who dig younger chicks when I remembered a photo I’d been meaning to “meme” for some time… Instead of embedding, I’ve linked it via my Ashley original pic above. I myself have barely begun the movie, so I’ll just have to “update” this blog if and when I finish it. Already I’m in light disagreement with some of what I’m hearing, but subjects like these..
