Oh, Les Miz - Call Me, Maybe?
Dec. 7th, 2012 03:00 pmFor all of you who can't wait for Les Miserables this Christmas, something to tide you over:
....my brother suggested passing along this one, which admittedly has already gone pretty viral:

You think YOU have problems this weekend:
Apr. 21st, 2012 08:51 amIn this household, one black and white furry creature is alternating between being pressing against me and being adorable and supportive, and wailing because I will not allow him to go play with the squirrels who have temporarily taken residence on the front porch (zipping between the porch and the red maple as we await the next series of storms), and one small grey furry creature has spent an anxious morning trying to decide: sleep in safety, but without a pillow, behind the TV stand/TV where no one can see her, or beneath the great bed where no one can see her or -- or -- does she dare continue recent activities, and sleep in the light of the guest bed, after turning on the water in the bathroom sink and failing to turn it off?
Decisions. Decisions.
Three unrelated things:
Feb. 13th, 2012 08:19 amThree completely unrelated things for the morning:
1. I don't exactly mean to turn this blog into an advertising vehicle for large corporations, and I know some of you hate the thought of Willie Nelson covering Coldplay songs. But this has some very cute pigs:
(Also I like Chipotle.)
2. H.P. Lovecraft's first day as a substitute teacher at Arkham Junior High School.
3. My thought that central Florida had already moved past its limited winter this year into spring and summer turned out, like most of my weather thoughts, to be flat out wrong. We have ice in the bird bath this morning, and frost on the plants that huddle in the shadows behind the house. Just to comfort those of you in the north convinced that you alone must endure cold.

Carol of the Bells for cellos
Dec. 20th, 2011 08:10 pmOk, I know most of you are probably feeling the holiday music fatigue already, but you have to trust me: this is an excellent rendition of "Carol of the Bells":

The many deaths of Sean Bean
Jul. 17th, 2011 10:10 amBack when a certain piece of casting was announced, a friend of mine who had not read Game of Thrones grumbled, "Great. Now I know the ending."
This is why. (Spoilery for about 19 films. The full list of films appears here; I have to say I totally forgot the guy was in Patriot Games.)

Edit: Er, let's try that again, since apparently neither the post nor the video managed to get posted:

Our true enemy: pennies
Sep. 19th, 2010 08:28 pmLet us be honest. I know absolutely nothing about any of the economic issues and tidbits in the video below. But I am heartily endorsing it anyway. You'll see why:
YouTube stuff for the day:
May. 30th, 2010 10:24 amMy mother is insisting that I show all of you this:
(I will point out that sharing this with you all would have gone better had she initially sent me the YouTube link instead of a wmv file which did not feel like uploading.)
But I'm guessing many of you, and particularly the Doctor Who fans, will actually want to see this:
