TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

Kisses kept are wasted,
Love is meant to be tasted.

TODAY’S GRAFFITI CURRENCY



Looking to capitalize on the success of the US Mint's "50 State Quarters Program", the Bureau of Engraving and Printing follows up with "Buffy the Vampire Slayer Collectable Currency".

KING OF THE BLOGS: THE DEATH OF THE THREE

The results are in for the first elimination round of the King of the Blogs Tournament. At the end of week 1, with the scoring of a random post and the host's challenge, the following blogs are still standing (highest to lowest score):

Vigilance Matters

ChristWeb

SmarterCop

And now a personal note to Walking Stick, who captured the coveted "last loser" spot by managing to have one judge give him a 0 for not posting frequently enough:

You've got a good, quirky, stream-of-consciousness style of humor. Don't let Evangelical Outpost's criticism get you down. Just keep blogging.

AMERICA'S #1 PIN-UP GIRL REVEALS ALL!

...In her interview over at Jen's place. Here are some highlights:

***********
Athletically speaking, could you beat Heather of Angel Weave at anything? If so, what? If not, why haven't you tried? Are you willing to put money on that?

Athletically? Well, maybe if we stretch the definition of that term a little bit (it's been over ten years since I last played basketball). *Moseying over to Heather's to scope out any possible weaknesses.* Hey, lookie there! She got married the day before I did! And she'll share an anniversary with my niece when she gets married this year! Hey, that's cool! Wait... I'm supposed to be kicking her ass. Hmmm... shit. She's a bodybuilder. Things are not lookin' good here... ooh! Score! She "can't drink soda because of the carbonation." There it is! I could KICK HER ASS in a soda-drinking contest. Damn straight! That's athletic, right? No? Hm.... well, after reading through Heather's entire "100 things about me" list, I have to say I think she would kick my ass. The only advantage I can see is that I have about 5 inches on her, so like her mom, I could put things on very high shelves, out of her reach. I don't think that qualifies as athletic, though. Damn.

Which Democratic candidate do you like the most of all and why?

That's like asking do you prefer a root canal or an enema. Neither one is really high on my list of "fun things to do." So I guess this is more a "lesser of all evils" kind of thing. I could most live with a Lieberman presidency, because he's least likely to back down from the war on terrorism, and he's not as inclined to tax-and-spend, not being of the socialist persuasion like most of the rest of the Democratic persuasion. Sadly, he'll almost certainly not get the nomination. Wait, come to think of it, that's not so sad, since everyone expects Bush to trounce Dean. Yay, Dean! Nominate Dean! Dean is the man! Dean for 2004!

Your blog seems to have taken off since the Bloggers With Boobies founding. Any regrets that you've become somewhat synonymous with that meme?

I'm not really sure you could say it's "taken off" since then. I've gotten some more regular readers since then, but it's not like I've started challenging Instapundit for his blog-throne or anything. Anyway, no, I don't regret it. BWB was - and is - a statement of female empowerment, an assertion of female identity and will, and an expression of solidarity with other like-boobied bloggers. I don't mind its being know that I possess boobs, and if that gets people in to read my (honestly, mostly political) commentary, then all the better. If they were just looking for tits, they won't really stick around. I'm more disturbed by all the people I get who are Googling "beastiality."
***********

I have to say that this was one of the most enjoyable interviews I've read to date. Mostly because Dana relaxes a bit and lets fly with some delightfully funny lines. I'd love to see more of that side of her on her blog.

Of course, there's other things I'd like to see of hers, too.

What might those be? Well, this question might provide a hint:

Regarding the bikini area - shave, trim, sculpt, or jungle?

You have to read the interview for the answer.

BLOG-BUDDY LINKY LOVE

My blog-buddies are still the coolest because of their perfect Showcase voting record.

What else is cool about them?

Well, in one day, Susie took on the plumber, the popper-repairman, the candy man, the Pepsi man, the soap & paper towel guy, and one more lucky delivery guy that she can't even remember. Talk about stamina!

Matty O'Blackfive has a story so powerful that it brought tears to my grumbly old eyes. The short of it is:

That's right. A 32 year-old Staff Sergeant loses his leg and says that it was worth it...because of support from the American people.

The long of it can be found at Matt's place, along with a very simple way for you to share your support with wounded soldiers

Kevin of Eckernet has a steaming pile of hate-speech for everyone who pissed him off in 2003. PeTA is just one of many:

Animal Rights Groups (i.e. PETA) 
Wow, has this group taken off this year. Never before have I seen their approach. It appears their strategy is to piss off the very people they are trying to convince. Everything from blasphemy to abusing children is acceptable practice when fighting for Fluffys right to vote. Mindless stupidity appears to be the primary talent needed. Half-assed and misleading research is the order of the day. And inappropriate and bizarre antics is business as usual. This group has never made a juicy steak, a tall glass of milk and a fur coat look better.

And the Geekster of physicsgeek (who redecorated his place for the post-holiday season) has 10 pieces of advice for folks going to a New Year's Eve office party. They're all good, but I like #10...:

 10. Once your pantyhose have a big "Easy Access" hole in the upper
 thigh, just take 'em off already. You're not fooling anyone there,
 classy-chick.

...because I work with this broad, and #5...:

 5. If your party is open bar all evening long, you've hit BONANZA.
 Pace yourself, or you'll be bummed in the morning when you realize you
 were sent home in time to watch Jeopardy.
 
 If your party is open bar only for an hour, offer to help "organize"
 so you can get there early and hoard alcohol for yourself and your
 friends.
 
 If your party is cash bar only, consider quitting now. It's only
 December 31st - you can get a new job at a company that will at least
 pick up the friggin' bar tab for an hour. Jeez - it's New Years.
 Tight-asses!

because, although my bank does give us that "whole hour" to get drunk, the rest of the party is strictly dumb-ass, cheap-ass, tight-ass. I swear, every year my boss's hair gets pointier.

By the way, I'm experimenting with colored text for quoted passages, and I'm not sure which color looks best. Probably not this poopy brown. Any suggestions?
