Saturday Morning Moonshot Links

I admit to being a space enthusiast, despite wishing that NASA be eliminated from the FedGov. And I am very much opposed to manned space flight (machines are FAR better at that), especially things like manned interplanetary exploration. It is an enormous waste of...

It’s Passover Seder Night- some Jew Stuff

It’s Passover Seder Night- some Jew Stuff

The holiday most goyim know about is Hanukkah, mostly because it drops in the calendar at the same time as their big-deal holiday, Christmas. Too bad because Hanukkah is not only a lame little thing, it's something no-one ever paid attention to until American Jewkids...

Sunday Morning Crazy Guy Links

Sunday Morning Crazy Guy Links

Warning: long one today. You'll recall the little incident at our shop a few weeks back where a crazy guy who had been trespassed for stealing came back in, and when told to leave by 10b0t, blew a gasket and started screaming and throwing stuff pulled off the counter....

Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me. Wait, wrong book, I'll find something else.

Saturday Morning Multiple Maniacs Links

I suddenly find two NPR Ladies in the picture, and a conundrum it is. They are both intelligent, accomplished, and educated. NPR1 is a physician (pediatrics), incredibly kind and sweet, soft-spoken, and seems to be quite sane and grounded. NPR2 is actually a rerun,...

Sunday Morning Post Mortem Links

After dinner last night with New NPR, WebDom pulled me aside. "There's something wrong." "Oh?" "She's sane. And really nice." Apparently we've gotten past the first filter. Mere socializing will not stop birthday parties, and we really should have them for people like...

Sunday Morning Links of Persistence

Never give up. Never give up. Never give up. After all the NPR Lady ordeals, I've been trying once again. And this latest one may even be ready for the first of my two major filter tests: an evening with WebDom. If she gets past that, the much more rigorous filter...

Saturday Morning Pre-Election Links

Our university is sponsoring an Election Night Watch Party this week. We were admonished in the invitation: The event is non-partisan, and a cordial and respectful place to watch the 2024 election results as they come in. There will be food, an electoral college map...

Sunday Morning Medically Cleared Links

Spent the day in the ER with l0b0t playing the dutiful son by my side. Although I thought things were getting better, my fever appeared to bounce back, I was coughing incessantly (note that Spud ignored this because of his scat fixation), my intestines were...

Saturday Morning Sick as a Dog Links

My health has taken a bad turn. Nasty ass flu which has me fatigued, coughing, diarrhea (I do not recommend that combination), fever... but bless the amazing Kaiser who has stayed by my side and tried comforting and guarding. A pediatrician friend made some...

Sunday Morning Tales From Oberlin East Links

As much as I hated the Bush dynasty, I hate them more now. Among all the other stupid shit Bush The Elder did, the one with the longest consequences was probably the ADA. And as many problems and inconveniences as this has caused for me in the past, the latest...
