In the Beginning


When creation'd barely got its legs
Applesauce with nuts and eggs.

You know, I've never been "afraid" of snakes, but I can't say that I'm a big fan of them, either.

I don't understand the poem. I'm slow on the uptake.

I had the chance to hold a python this summer, Aza, and it was actually very nifty. The other teachers were scared, but I thought it rocked so I got extra time. This is a green one and I like the swirls and curls of its body.

I don't like vipers so much, but boas and pythons are ok as long as they aren't trying to eat me, Violet.

I don't think you're slow, LBB but essentially it's this: Forbidden fruit = apples Creation snafu = applesauce. Who did it? Man (nuts) and Woman (eggs). Least that's how I thought of it.

I do too, Steve!

Show Me Your Hooters

Driving in traffic today, I got behind an 18-wheeler semi truck with a sign on the back that stated simply, in red, capital letters: SHOW ME YOUR HOOTERS. This poses a few queries in my mind, even if in no one else's: 1. Does that work? Are there women out there who'll strip off their tank tops and let boobies flap in the wind just free for the asking? 2. If one was going to entertain such a notion, how do you maintain control of your own vehicle whilst freeing said hooters? Philosophical questions such as these boggle the mind, and will likely puzzle scientists and theologians for millenia to come.

Shredding, Slamming Fun

Yeah, I'm closer to 40 than 14, but that doesn't mean I can't pretend to be in that band I always wanted to be in. And no, I can't play the guitar for real, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the tar out of this game. In fact, that's the whole POINT. The second version of this Playstation 2 diversion, called Guitar Hero as you can see here, just came out, but I'm too busy woodshedding on a borrowed version of the first one to care about that yet. At first, I sucked so thoroughly the game kicked me out of the song and the crowd booed. Yet now, I can successfully hit 80-96% of the notes on average of tunes ranging from Boston's "More Than A Feeling" to Audioslave's "Cochise." The cool thing is, songs you don't even like much and dismiss as crap, you get new respect for when you try to play them. You also learn how Nikki Sixx must have felt when his fingers and forearms ached from the amount of rockin' he was doing, but...

Le Jeu de les Livres (Book Game)

1. Grab the nearest book. 2. Open the book to page 123. 3. Find the fifth sentence. 4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions. 5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest. Here's mine: They hadn't even known for certain (as the Witch did) that this is what would happen when Aslan came to Narnia. But they all knew that it was her spells which had produced the endless winter; and therefore they all knew when this magic spring began that something had gone wrong, and badly wrong, with the Witch's schemes. And after the thaw had been going on for some time they all realized that the Witch would no longer be able to use her sledge. BONUS POINTS: From what tome do these fair sentences hail? (p.s. I stole this from another blogger... find him at http://www.osbasso.blogspot.com/ )
