5:30 -- Run back to condo, grab GL1, charged battery, and tripod. Also, dry jeans, ostrich boots.
6:45 -- Depart WGOWC for some VFW in Bumfuck, TN.
8:00 -- Begin videotaping landlord's other band entanglement.
12:00 -- Get $40.
1:30 -- Get back online and see what you knuckleheads are up to (those who're still awake, of course).
Awwwwww, dang. I'll miss liveblogging of the SciFi thang. You know that breaks my heart.

Hello, I thought I would put a plug in for a good friend's literary journal "The Rogue Voice". I've been bugging him to get it online for months, so I finally helped him put it on as a blog (after a few beers) last night. Great, mostly left leaning stories. Highlights this month: A guy who was evicted from camping at a WalMart and a prison inmate describes his unusual job at the prison chapel. The writing is superb and I'm sure feedback would be appreciated.

Also, any blogger experts who know how to tweak the format a little, your suggestions would be appreciated.

No, this is another band my landlord's attached to, at the moment. A three-piece classic rock outfit called Sticky Kim.

When our old washer decided it had had enough, we bought a front loader too. I think, about a year and a half ago. Less water, less detergent, cleaner clothes. A win-win in my opinion, even if it cost a bit more initially.

A very strange weather day here on the leeward coast of Lake Michigan. It is beautifully sunny and cool (mid sixties) but there are these occasionally thundershowers . . .
The dark clouds move in with a mysterious rumbling, the bright sun is dimmed, the rain falls with abandon: then it moves on and it is beautifully sunny.
apparenly one of the hedgehodges was attacking the rubbish bags.
my mother calls them Mrs Tiggywinkle's.

It looks like he (Vince)took his own life but that's not confirmed.
Grateful Dead keyboard player Vince Welnick dies
By Sara Wykes
Mercury News
Vince Welnick, 55, who played keyboards with the Grateful Dead for five years before the death of band founder Jerry Garcia, died Friday.
Sonoma County sheriffs said he was taken, injured, from his home in rural Forestville near Santa Rosa, to a local hospital.
He died there, police said.
An unofficial spokesman at the Welnick home said, ``It looks like he took his own life.'' But that is not known for sure, he said. ``The family is very grieved, and trying to figure it all out.''

Hedgehogs are a powerful form of pest control. A single hedgehog can keep an average garden free of pests by eating up to 200 grams of insects each night. Therefore, it is common throughout England to see people attempting to lure hedgehogs into their yards with treats and hedgehog-sized holes in their fences.

Mer: about twice $$$ what the comparable Kenmore top-loading washer cost, new. it occurred to me later that one needn't really buy the complementary dryer...though in the instance i was able to rationalize it cuz one of the paddles on the dryer drum was gone...
$1200 for the pair, delivered, with the older machines removed. sears will send me a $150 rebate, and the city of Albuquerque will gimme a $100 credit on my water bill...
i am no connoisseur of the relative cleanliness of my clothes...i do sweaty work and i eat off a plate on a tray pretty often; my criterion is simple: it gets the food spots and the sweat-stink out...
i just did my first load of laundry in the new machines...i'll letcha know...

Wait, I'm still fuming about the anti-gay marraige speech. That's why junior is the president of america.
Because this country is populated by a majority so poorly educated and informed, that the media -- assuming they're not quite as clueless -- can't be bothered to explain such a subtle point as junior's judicial hypocrisy, probably assuming correctly that the average voter doesn't care, won't get it, or really is stupid, so why bother. And reporting costs money, so that's out.

The radio silence from the left on the terror busts in Toronto and London is still ongoing, I see. I guess the "reality based" community is having difficulty explaining a terror plot in Canada? Best to not mention it and hope it goes away - heck, over at Kos, they called it a "slow news day".
When Atrios next needs a "Wanker of the Day", he could try a mirror.
