With justice for some

Two evenings ago, M and I ordered The Declaration and Independence and The Constitution of the United States of America from Amazon. They are lovely hard-bound editions, and I can’t wait to get them and read them. It’s probably something I should have done long ago, but better late than never. Shouldn’t we all be familiar with the documents used to found our great country? Isn’t it imperative that we, as Americans, know why our country was founded, on on what grounds? Shouldn’t we understand what rights and conditions are our just due?

Strength Training

Was reading a back issue of Lenswork last night and this morning and found an article entitled, “The Nature of the Problem” by David Bayles and Ted Orland. Smart dudes.

M = Maytag Man

Which, of course, makes me Maytag Woman. Well, not really. We have Kenmores down there, but Kenmore Man just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Spin cycle

O Appliance Gods, smile upon us this evening as we begin our treacherous voyage into the damp domain of a Kenmore HE4T.

A Midnight Carnival

I found a new photographer through Lenswork whose work I really like, and I’m trying desperately to find a link I can post here so I can share him with everyone. I’m firmly against “borrowing” other peoples’ work, even if it’s in the name of promoting that person to the world. I try to think of it like this, “would I like it if I was out cruising around the Web and some random person had placed my images on his/her site, even if they were credited to me?” Nope. I wouldn’t. I’d think it was rather creepy as a matter of fact.

Why you should always carry a camera

As we were getting out of the car at Target this evening, I saw another vehicle pull in that made me just start cracking up laughing. I couldn’t even get, “M, look! Zozo, look!” out because I was laughing so hard.

A shitty day. Literally.

The beauty of having a laptop computer is that one can sit on the floor outside the bathroom and blog while watching one’s husband and father replace the wax ring on one’s potty.
