Geez for some reason the caption for the "graduated from high school" photo wants to act as an url. Not my intention and I'll be damned if I can see why that's happening. I officially hate technology .. except when it works.

Aack! Just tried to fix it. Finally tossed out the high school photo altogether. Now the problem has transferred to the berkeley photos.

Found it. Left off /url in []'s at the end of a photo. Good to know there was an objective reason and not some genie out to torture me.

Wait, there's such a thing as a "clam gun"?

THIS. PLANET. IS. AWESOME.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Uses suction to pull them out. Easy as shit. It's one more way in which mankind has utterly dominated the lesser species...

Course, it feels like overkill to me: ain't no way they're getting away from my hands... and getting them out is a lot more fun (if a bit 'dirty').
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Gotta love dem good 'ole states. Even if the rest of the country begins to shift, the southern states will fight to the death to cling to their love of discrimination.

Why do people only take pictures of Portland on the one day each year that it isn't overcast? Smile

The South Americans are seriously underrepresented here :/ Didn't think it was that Catholic down there...

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

Philippines... The pope is here at the moment until Monday, and the roads are traffic-free and a lot of offices in the big city are closed.
