Three new babies were dropped off last night. They’re 7 weeks old. Nigel and Nancy are siblings, Schubert was dropped off in a shoebox anonymously. They’ll stay here until they’re old enough to get adopted, and they’ve gotten used to other cats and the dog. Nigel has come out of the crate, but he’s still [...]
Thanks to The Lippard Blog, I found passive-aggressive notes. Ah, the humanity! It’s pretty amusing to see anonymous conflict resolution. . .
Rex Duncan, a Representative in Oklahoma, got all pissy when he was given a copy of the Quran because it endorsed the killing of women and children. The bible he got from the Baptist General Convention, though, is something else entirely. “Mine is proudly on my desk on the Capitol and I don’t think I [...]
Over at Pharyngula, PZ Myers wrote a post linking to a Jesus and Mo cartoon. The strip took the point of view that pro-lifers were all about controlling women, and while that subject got comments, it naturally turned into a debate about abortion. I wanted to leave a comment, but I just couldn’t stop writing, [...]

The Star-Ledger has a weekly insert called “Homefinder”, and it’s often good for a laugh, if only because some of the prices are so unrealistic. (It’s a sad, bitter laugh sometimes. . .) Now, one of the features at the front of the insert is a listing with photos that classifies three separate properties in [...]
My therapist and I had a very enlightening session the other day. I discovered how my disorganization was really impacting every single aspect of my life, and how my opposition to getting organized wasn’t any of the other things I’d self-diagnosed. Oh, dear. You know what, though, it brought the urgency of getting organized into [...]
I was going to blog about this myself, but Crooks and Liars has all the links. I was reading this morning about pedophile William Devlin confessing to his attempt to kill Shawn Hornbeck, and Hornbeck convincing him not to by promising to do anything. The first thing that came into my head was O’Reilly’s assertion [...]
