  • These people have never seen my chicken scratches ....

    You Are Chinese
    You are a bit old fashioned and deliberate. You take your time and do things the right way.
    You have an eye for craftsmanship and quality. You cherish and appreciate beautiful objects.

    You are interested in the past. You consider yourself to be a student of history, and you are always learning.
    You are also naturally quite artistic. Even if you aren't an artist by trade, it's likely that you have perfect penmanship.

  • Are you silver or gold?

    You Are Silver
    You are down to earth and unpretentious. You don't feel like you need to show off, and you're very secure with your place in the world.
    You are understated and elegant. You carry yourself with poise, and you're more known for what you don't do than what you do.

    You can fit in anywhere from a country western bar to a black tie gala. You are adaptable and adventurous.
    You are blind to social class and background. You see people as who they are ... not as where they came from or how much money they have.
    Are You Silver or Gold?

  • The ineffableness of Pennsic-longing

    I want to be at Pennsic, but not enough to drive there or fly there and set up. Does that make sense? Or am I babbling?
    In any case, I'm too busy at work to take the time right now.

  • Transformers 2 (spoilers)

    We went to see Transformers 2 today. No, it's not a good movie, and there are plot holes big enough to drive Optimus Prime through. But it wasn't supposed to be an enduring legacy -- it's a summer movie, and that's enough.
    As I watched it, though, I was struck by its similarity to most modern action movies. By which I mean stunning violence displayed as a marvelous acrobatic ballet, beautifully graceful even in slam-bang action sequences punctuated with flaming explosions. All human death is portrayed as instantaneous and bloodless, and in this movie the only mourning is for Optimus Prime, a monster of steel and glass.
    What does it say about us that we love the sparkle and glare of explosions, the portrayal of disaster and human danger, and ignore the cost that would follow in real life? It would be too disgusting and distasteful to market a summer movie that showed human suffering in any detail, so we have these tremendously expensive blockbusters that are the equivalent of pure sugar candy.

  • Literal video

    Remember the video to Total Eclipse of the Heart. Wasn't that weird? Now here's the literal version, which explains soooo many things.

  • Fred Phelps ... evil freak

    Speech by Nate Phelps to the American Atheists Convention in April. It's a very interesting story, but what makes me so sad is Nate's description of what living with his father was like. Those poor people.

  • 1816: The year with no summer

    Worldwide unseasonable cold, famine, and death: 1816 had no summer, and it's all because of the eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia.

  • Absolutely the best version of "Santy Anno" I've ever heard

    The video is SERIOUSLY weird. Shrink the window and just listen to the audio -- you'll be glad you did.

  • Pretty, pretty ... duck tape?

    Make a statement! Mend your armor with spiffy duck tape!

    From ooh-shiny.net:



    As a side note: It is duck tape, not duct tape -- I don't care how you've always seen it written. It is useless for ducts but it is made of duck. The fabric, not quack-quack.
