Went to All Books and Records with the bro… he got the spider-man ps2 game for a song (direct trade for street fighter 3….) and I got a copy of The Big Book of the Weird Wild West… he had things to do today, so we parted company there, and I went on to Past Present Future. Sadly, they had no copies of UA2 left in stock, but they’ll hold one and call me when it comes in. I did get gifties for the office however…The Essential Spider-Man, Volume 1, The Essential Fantastic Four Volume 1, Essential Hulk, and Essential Dr. Strange. That should keep Kevin, Karen, and myself busy for a while during the slow-compile, data-crunching times. I added a couple of those to my wish list, too…just so I can remember to order myself the Howard the duck collection. Waugh! Next time I send off a goodie bag, I’m going to get a few of the used things for myself. (No point in paying $4 shipping for a $4.50 book.)
Here’s the trip I took today…not bad… about 13 miles round trip(with shortcuts and bus travel not counting). a healthy haul (mind you, I had a nice shopping breather twice in between. It was a nice enough day that I didn’t take the bike too far on the bus… but it was nice to know that the option was there if I’d tuckered out. Needless to say, I did shortcut through the park on the way home, so you can shave about a mile off there. I’m bone tired now, but feel good after having had a nice shower.
A Picture of a squirrel from Holiday Park. He was drinking from a puddle, and I barely had time to catch him. I’m happy that I snapped him in motion! trimmed to spare narrow friend’s pages
What? Not Hagrid?
Bah!
Upside, the Bro will go with me as far as all-books, but then will be turning back. He’s doing something later this afternoon with his roomie and roomie’s cousin. I should be seeing Msk and Riker in my travels, though.
Going to launch in about 15 minutes, so I’ll see you later, dear journal.
Well… that was quick and easy.
remaining tasks – [updated 10:55am]
Now, to have some tasty bagels and veggie spread for breakfast.
Life imitates Real Genius!!!
American defense contractors are developing a laser weapon for fighter aircraft that may be powerful enough to blind people on the ground, even if they are relatively far from the target….
No word as to whether or not the head of the project hates popcorn. (p.s. As a kid, I had a *huge* crush on Jordan from that movie. Goofy, smart gal in Coveralls…how could I resist? I guess I’ve always had a fondness for cute, brainy spaz-types.)
Don’t forget: Cowboy Bebop marathon, 11 PM-2 AM, Saturday night through Sunday Morning on Cartoon Network Scotto, get a blank tape today.
Ok… enough dawdling… time to hop in the shower, and start the day.
Misc drawings and piccies from today, and last night.
a lot! you’ve been warned. mouse over the pictures for minor commentary.
Boy’s Penis Stitched Back After Donkey Bite
MAP did not say how the donkey managed to bite off the boy’s penis.
But the rest of us can speculate, can’t we?
Rebel Blockade Runner Available on E-Bay
A 35ft long replica of the Tantive IV, also known as the Rebel Blockade Runner, built 1:1 scale to Hasbro’s 3-3/4 inch action figures. She’s big enough for you, old man.
Ex-Dictator Broke, Living With Mom
Valentine Strasser became the world’s youngest head of state when he seized power in 1992 at the age of 25. But the limelight didn’t last…four years later, he was ousted in another coup.
“I’m basically living off my mother now. She’s been very supportive,” the 35-year-old said at a neighborhood bar on the outskirts of Freetown, Sierra Leone’s capital.
It’s an online archive of Krazy Kat comic strips!
The Death of Bin Laden
This article in Saudi Arabia’s Arab News Daily argues that Bin Laden is dead politically and explains why. Very interesting reading.
going out tomorrow (hopefully with the bro) to PPF to pick up my copy of UA2, and maybe bicycle down the beach.
I’m going to look for a few books… “people of” series, and for, “Treasury of Fantastic and Mythological Creatures” compiled by Richard Huber. The book should be in the art section. It’s well over 1,000 line drawings of critters from nearly every period of human evolution: Babylonian, Pre-Columbian, Asian, Medieval Europe(Including Heironymous Bosch), etc. And some comic digests for around the computer lab. 🙂
maybe also to sawgrass to do some giftie shopping.
OK… let’s see here… Looking in the mirror, my pupils seem small, and light seems bright. I wonder why that is?
Friday, already. Where did this week go?
Hoping to spend this evening watching invasion of the hidden cameras tonight with my sweetie. Tonight’s another double shot! 🙂
oh, and TAKE THAT, ALIEN FISH!
Sunset on the bus, Wednesday night. Not bad for poor light and moving. It’s 600 wide… I wonder if that’s too big for friend’s pages?
Upside, I’ve found that msn allows for free image hosting…nifty.
This is a test…photo was from 2000, newt in the first apartment. found the photo online… thought it was long gone.
The moon is full tonight and very nice lookin’!
We will also be able to see the International Space Station with the naked eye between now and mid-August. Neat.
Oh, the humanity… bear-lynching… there ought to be a law, I say!
From Yahoo! News:
Blind German psychic Ulf Buck feels the buttocks of a client during a session in his study room in the northern German village of Meldorf near Hamburg July 15, 2002. Clairvoyant Buck claims that people’s backsides display lines like those on the palm of the hand, which can be read to reveal much about their character and destiny.
No. Really. There’s a picture and everything. I’m surprised it’s not in the “most viewed” yet, but it will be. It is number one in most emailed.
Q: How much is pirate corn?
A: A buccaneer.
Pirate cardiac arrest: “Arrrr! Me hearty!”
Nighty night, dear journal
It isn’t her cup size or complexion, though she is ample and lily-white. Oh, she is quite pretty. She is visually stunning, in fact. Seeing her in a flowing skirt and a Indian-fabric blouse is surely a wonder. Her hair is a delightful tangle of red cascading down her neck and shoulders, a strand of silver here and there, if not hidden by the salon. Her mouth is wide, the lips full, her dark eyes clear and intense. Her face is washed by sorrow and joy, like a stone made smooth by water. Compassion, it says. There is her beauty. The way she holds herself, the way her eyes move, effortlessly, without a trace of affectation or cruelty, everything about her won me. Hers is the secret face I put myself to sleep by.
