I love the brits

Things that would be cool if true

Psychic ability and this

Definitely worth a listen -

A man I totally have a crush on...

Marcus Ranum....

I went to a presentation of his at a conference in Baltimore. He gave this talk.
Update: he maybe totally paranoid given his response to an email I sent stating

Your address AND directions to your house are a stalker's dream. Luckily, I'm not one.

His response, which I deleted before I thought of the interest factor, was to point out that he is:

heavily armed;

skilled with a sword;

has two big ass dogs; and

night vision goggles

I think the crush might be passing - after all I have to think of my cats. Of course referencing stalking and directions in the same post might be a bit worrying to most people

This kind of shit pisses me off

and makes me sick. Yes, I know there are quite a lot of things that piss me off. However, this is the kind of thing that actually inspires thoughts of violence.
What kind of sick motherfucker would write that about women (I'm talking the comments highlighted here) let alone a 15 year old girl

A lovely Christmas song from Tim Minchin

I love Tom Tomorrow

Woody Allen Jesus

From Pharyngula

When will they ever learn? Tim Minchin did a new song for a television show, and when the director, Peter Fincham, saw it, he presumably freaked out and demanded it be cut. This wasn’t The Pope Song — it was a very friendly and cheerful song about Jesus. But he had it cut anyway, and now everyone is featuring it on their blogs.

I have decided that Peter Fincham has to be the most cunning Jesus-hating atheist ever, because it was an absolutely brilliant move guaranteed to get the song promoted all over the place.

How I wish I could write

The ABIB is a co-worker who first identified RADS (Random Accent Disorder Syndrome).
The exec she writes about here is one I actually considered stabbing in the head with a pencil.

All I want for Xmas

So, in short, Father Christmas, what I’d like (and what millions of us would like) is a mythological Vertibrate Democrat.

You don’t have to actually produce an actual, honest-to-gosh Vertibrate Democrat. I’d happily settle for a Mythic Vertibrate Democrat that exists at the same level as you do, Father Christmas: A mythological creature that inspires adults and children, who does good deeds through his innumerable proxies, and who won’t actually eat the milk and cookies we set out in the living room on Christmas Eve.

What a tool

Gov. Scott Walker major fuckwit

He is the kind of asshole who thinks the lives of women are worth less than a fetus. Of course, once a child is born, he doesn't give a shit.

Creepy clips from a show for kids from yesteryear

This is from a popular Minnesota kid's show of the 50's and 60's called Lunch with Casey. There is just something so wrong about a man wearing long johns singing on a kid's show

Why the hell not?

Why not give myself a space to rant about this and that and also post cute pictures of my pets.  There are quite a few topics and articles that interest me that I can't really post on Facebook so this is my space to do it.

I don't consider myself a profound thinker so no deep thoughts here.
