I'm alone tonight--which I rarely am--my husband is in hospital with
my father-in-law, so I'm eating pizza and getting a liitle 'faced. You're good people to get 'faced with. Srsly. I'd even blow sunshine up any of your asses through a crazy straw if I had to. Luckily, I don't think I'd ever have to. I hope. But all the same, crazy straw, urgent need of anally-delivered UV--I'd be on it. Even rigging a crazy straw to be extra-sunlight transmittable via reflection from alunimium foil. From my very own hat.

Long story short, aluminum foil--my hat, your ass covered, That's just how I feel right now.

For what it's worth.

7. Thanks for clicking on my blog.
Every now and then I get to a book review--that was a pretty good book, and I think the "Reagan myth" really did need a going-over.

10. It's one of my favorite subjects.
One of the quickest ways to get me going is to start telling me how wonderful Saint Ronnie of Reagan was. He was an idiot and an embarrassment. Our current economic problems trace directly to him and his disciples. The perpetuation of myths about him has done just as much or more damage as his time in office because of the delusion that repeating his blunders is a good thing. Particularly where tax cuts for the affluent are concerned, this is exactly why there has been a sustained, well funded, and deliberate campaign to distort his legacy. For this same reason we should counter every Reagan fairy tale with a barrage of truth.

12. Great links--
This is what I can't help but think about when I hear Glenn Beck go on about civilians being put in camps (he can't disprove it!)

There are few people in this world I have ever read about, heard about, or seen on tv who have ever triggered in me such an immediate feeling of dislike as Ollie North. It was pleasant reading Hackworth's take-down of him.

9. Aw damn. I just bought a new crazy straw, too.
Guess I'll have to find somebody else to blow that sunshine up my nether regions. :(

11. Try a vitamin D insertion?


Not quite as technologically challenging as actually channeling UV into a tube, but gets the job done.
