Felicity came into the room yesterday with one of their play outfits which consisted of a helmet, shield and short sword (regular size on her) and panties. that’s it.

she said “I’m a footman!”

my roommate pointed out that she was wearing more than most gladiators would have.

money, up there with politics and religion

Filed under: General — ladykatza @ 1:23 pm

Have you ever noticed how contentious the subject of money can be in social situations? Or in relationships, for that matter. I started thinking about this the other day, and of research I had “heard” in the past. It made me go digging and I came across two rather interesting articles. Once about how money effects our mind and our relationships. In my mind, talking about money and money troubles is up there with talking about politics and religion. Which is to say, don’t do it unless you are ready for a fight or hurt feelings.

Just because I haven’t in a while…

I’m going to try and relay kid stories. The most recent one was involving the PS2 and a VS. game called Bushido Blade. It was made for the playstation, so controls are clunky. Simon and Felicity were trying to play each other, but daecon decided to help Felicity a bit. Simon had his rear end handed to him on a platter and understandably let out a rather loud “AW MAN!”.

At which point felicity says in her cute little voice: “Nice try, BIG BOY!”

Dirty, Underhanded Media Tricks.

I don’t like most big news media stations, and I’m particularly disgusted with Fox news. Why? Well, Barrak Obama seems to be a likely candidate for 2008, and possibly has popular support. Already, Fox News has started dirty tricks like this here (click the link).

Did you see it? Yup, that’s right. Pictures of activists for Obama in the background while they talk about sex offenders. Um, excuse me?

Oh, by the way, do you know who Rupert Murdock is? If you don’t, I suggest you do a little research. For starters, he owns Fox News, along with about 43 or so other media outlets, INCLUDING Fox Studios. He’s a big supporter of the Ronald Reagan and other neo-conservatives.

Hail Eris

Filed under: General — ladykatza @ 10:50 am

Rober Anton Wilson died yesterday at 4:50 am.

A quote from his blog:

Wavy Gravy once asked a Zen Roshi, “What happens after death?”

The Roshi replied, “I don’t know.”

Wavy protested, “But you’re a Zen Master!”

“Yes,” the Roshi admitted, “but I’m not a dead Zen Master.”

Quote #1

“Bush admits owning stock in coffin and flag companies, deploys more troops.”

Quote #2

Embassy warz score so far:

America = Got some computers from a minor outpost. Probably netted some personal mail and Hamaad’s saved Starcraft games.

Iran sympathyzers = killed a toilet.

They just don’t violate sovereignty like they used to.
