Jim Hee has a new blog, Caesar's Jester. You can find a link on the side, too.

Here's a cool new word: Iraqnophobia

Another word that's just funny: Poo X. It's any poodle crossbreed. The list of names is brilliant: cock-a-poo, peek-a-poo, etc.

First it was panties for men, now it's panties for dogs. people are really really strange.

I saw a girl picking up roadside garbage (No, I don't mean hitchhikers ... ) this morning on my way into work, and I thought, how odd, cool but odd. And then I realizes that . . .

Earth Day is today... The name of this day always makes me think of aliens from our neighboring star systems coming to visit all the quaint Terran sights: the big pictures of critters drawn in the chalky hillsides of England, Mexico and Australia. Some of the mildly miscreant ones will be doing the old crop-circle-practical-joke thingee again before leaving. Others, the more surly of the lot, will be doing all their goofy Mengelev-type experiments with bright lights and dentistry tools. Gross. . .

Anyways, there's a coupla different things going on if yer interested in helping out in some way:

Post Gazette has some things about cleanups, as well as PA Cleanways. These folks are also having an Art for Arts Sake/Earth Day event. the details are below:

hey, everyone!

In my earnest attempt to save the planet, I am pushing AGAIN to solicit your attendance at art for earth's sake. It's this Thursday -Earth Day. Tickets are $12 (26-/65+ and $20). There will be music (per Duquesne University), food, good libations, and an spectacular silent art auction. Please support our mission by attending this event. To learn more about PA CleanWays visit www.pacleanways.org. Please pass this along to anyone who may be interested. I appreciate all that you do to improve our community, and I ask that you extend your effort to my organization and purchase a ticket to this great event.

art space 303 is located at 303 east 8th avenue in homestead - just 2 blocks from the homestead hi-level bridge on the left.

And you never know who is reading your blog. I found out last night that a Duquesne professor I never even had has a link to this blog. You go, Anne Brannen....!

Finally, a solution for your bruised bananas . . .

And the porn industry is shutting down for 60 days.

I bought a mandolin this past weekend. It's a made in China type, but the cool part is it has some built-in pick-ups. i've learned a couple chords, and have a whole lot more to learn, but it's pretty sweet.

Not a whole lot going on today, it is monday after all.

My spring class is finished for the semester, softball has begun for the season, I have vacation-jones working, I just need to figure out where I am going, and if I can drag an accomplice with me.

Oh, and I started a Fotolog on Fotolog. I'll be posting some pics up there,probably jsut one a day, at least for now.
