Eyes
Desolate rocky landscape with no plants.

Ears
Sand grains pelting a rocky cliff face.

Voice
"What the hell are we doing out here?"

"Waiting for the rain."

Drum Roll Please

It's World Sauntering Day again!

So warm up those shoes and get to it people.

Boomshine

Somebody with a flash plugin Play This and tell me what you think. I can't decide if the thing would be so engrossing without the music or not.

Ugly Mugs - You Decide

If you have a minute, go HERE and see if there's anybody on the list that you recognize.

There's got to be some way to make a fun game out of it.

:-)


How about points for the number you've met in person or actually know?

Tomorrow Is

National Spumoni Day again. It's not snow, but I'll take it.

After that, it's Be An Angel Day. I don't think that's going to happen around here, I should probably settle for "Be Less of a Devil".

For Those Who Haven't Seen It

The Easter Egg Lord of the Rings With Jack Black and Sarah Michelle Geller. I don't remember the original directions for finding it, but I can look it up if anybody needs them.

Don't Wait

Go Nuts

Tomorrow is National Thrift Shop Day,

and after that it's Bad Poetry Day.


Extra points if you can find a book of bad poetry at a thrift shop within two days.

Dusk & Summer

She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles
When the world is hers and she held your eyes
Out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer
And she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers
She looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer

But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on

And she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth
And she made you better than you'd been before
She told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer
And she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap
She said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer"

But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on

She said, "no one is alone the way you are alone"
And you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known
Some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last

But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough of her to hang on

DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL

Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish

Presidential Advisor Karl Rove Resigns.
(Ding Dong the Witch is Dead!)

For those of you in other countries, if Vice President Cheney is an aggressive, brain eating, zombie, than this guy is Satan's little hand puppet.

Time to Run Around Screaming

Because Some Watery Tart Threw a Sword at You

Maybe that's what happened to Dubya.

The Constitution of the United States

This is the single most important document in the United States of America. Notice at the top there that it doesn't say "We the Founders", or "We the Government", or "We the Rulers", it says-

We the People of the United States...

I wish more people here understood that this country belongs to us and not to politicians or corperations or special interests. Nobody else is going to look out for our interests but us. The current administration is using this document for a doormat and we need to put a stop to it.

Like now.

Tired Just Watching

These guys would be a cop's worst nightmare in a foot pursuit.

Mother, daughter, sister, lover,
Her needles and pins hold the pieces together,
She’ll thread your pearls with her words of wisdom,
In the palm of her hand, your future is there running
Through

Mother, daughter, sister, lover,
There’s no perfect choice, as you walk in your future
Be still a child on your bed of eggshell,
Behind your first steps, it’s her shadows that cushion
Your fall

All questions will simply beg,
The most innocent replies.
She’ll make you a daisy chain
And cry as you walk away.

Mother, daughter, sister, lover,
Her needles and pins hold the pieces together,
She’ll thread your pearls with her words of wisdom,
A shoulder to cry on,
She’ll leave all the lights on for you
Yeah she will leave them on for you

All questions will simply beg,
The most innocent replies.
She’ll make you a daisy chain
And cry as you break away.

Mother, daughter, sister, lover,
One day soon you’ll be one or the other,
You’ll offer forgiveness, my savior, my sinner,
And then you will see that the circle begins here with...
Mother, daughter, sister, lover,
Father, and son, brother, lover

One day soon you’ll be one or the other.
And you’ll see that the circle begins here with...me

We can grow together
We can walk together
We can laugh, we can
Cry together
Mother, daughter,
Sister, lover
Father, and son,
Brother, lover
One day soon
I’ll discover
What will be...
One or the other

Hammer Lives!

So THATS what happened to MC Hammer after he killed his career. He must be making a fortune in royalties since it seems his music is almost mandatory when game characters dance. (grin)

Oh, the Macarena seems popular too.


Let's start a comment petition to see if Rach will show us her character dancing. (she gets to pick her own music, though)

Here It Comes Again

August 8th is Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Night.

Did anybody actually try this last year?




(And is it really some kind of sexual innuendo?)

:-)

Uhhhg.

My night time low temp is hotter than I want the daytime high to be, so I'm not feeling very creative.

Tomorrow is Wiggle Your Toes Day. I think I can manage that.

Watch This!

There doesn't seem to be an easy way to embed this video, so just GO HERE and watch. Then wander around and see more of the videos, and realize this is something I'd do if they hadn't done it already.

American Beauty

"I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me, but it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once and it's too much.My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst. And then I remember to relax and stop trying to hold on to it. And then it flows through me like rain, and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.

You have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm sure.

But don't worry.

You will someday."
