Let's start out with what may well be THE ugliest website on the Internet:

Be sure to check out the portait section:

And have the sound turned up -- you wouldn't want to miss the godawful inspiring music that accompanies each separate page. Heck, feel free to open up multiple windows at once for an enhanced experience!

In other news... LiveJournal is bringing back Basic Accounts. Sort of.

Sounds more like a variation on Plus Accounts to me...

Speaking of "variations", check out some examples of John McCain's "humor":

I'm a Canadian, so not voting for him isn't really a choice, but if it WERE a choice, I would definitely be selecting someone else.

One of the funniest things I've seen in a very long time.

Also via LiveJournal... [livejournal.com profile] flamingchords' blog goes BOOM after a post on the issue of abortion:

I agree with his sentiments, although the seventh paragraph could perhaps have been more diplomatically phrased. Then again, I believe that some people really DO look at women that way.

Later today I'm going over to a friend's house to help her prepare it for viewing. Washing windows and floors. There's no link attached to that particular concept. I'm just sayin'.

I had intended to get up at 10 am today. Either the alarm did not go off or I didn't hear it, because I actually woke up at 6:45 pm.

So much for a productive day. On the other hand, now that the loggy feeling of having overslept is wearing off and my wake-up dose of Ritalin (doctor prescribed) is kicking in, I feel quite wonderfully rested.

Some interesting things have crossed my line of sight in spite of having only been up for about two hours. First, a type of Russian helmet, circa 1880, that showed up on Antiques Road Show, which was on the living room TV while George and I were having coffee. The following links are to a Russian calvary officer's helmet from the same year, which is not quite the same as what I saw but very similar:

Second, The Asexual Visibility and Education Network, which was mentioned in an article in our local paper.

Third, "What LJ Actually Did (and why it should bother you.)", a post on IJ summing up the various aspects of LJ's conduct that may be cause for concern.

Fourth, something that I'd intended to post to this blog yesterday, but simply forgot: SNL's (in)famous Annualle commercial. (WARNING: for axe-wielding, screaming women, man-punching, and dog-kissing.)



It's about 8:30 pm, and I'm debating whether to (a) knuckle down and try to get some work done or (b) climb back into bed and get up early tomorrow. Decisions, decisions...
