1) This so seals the deal. Daniel Edwards is the best. Artist. Ever. Britney on a bearskin, Suri's first poop, Hillary's knockers, and now Paris Hilton's innards. I can't even imagine what's next, but oh, god, I can't wait.
2) Hooray for Stephen Hawking! I am simultaneously delighted and jealous. If this story doesn't make you smile, then I hate you.
3) Hooray also to the fine states of Washington and New Hampshire for taking good steps in the right direction. It ain't legal gay marriage, but hell, it's a start.
4) There was a fantastic article in the NY Times this week that reignited my deep fear and loathing of high fructose corn syrup. Seriously, that shit is the devil. And our government wants you to consume it in massive amounts. Your government is killing you.
5) Finally, the nutjob of the week award, which I thought for sure would be going to Mike Gravel, is instead presented to Utah Republican Don Larsen, for being absolutely batshit crazy.

1- umkay.
2- make that 2 jealous.
4- the sugar industry in general is devil spawn. Just about every processed food has sugar. And salt ain't much better. Often low fat is traded for high salt. We're all gonna die of strokes and heart attacks from high blood pressure or our bones'll snap in half from osteoporosis.
1. Or the new Jeff Koons.
2. Now he's going to cut in front of the line at Space Mountain, too. Fucker.
3. Seriously. I think there's going to be a domino effect.
4. I haven't forgiven the New York Times for Judith Miller yet. I'll trust your judgment.
5. You gotta love the batshit crazy. Much easier to battle than the underhanded, reasonable crazy.
Who the hell is Mike Gravel? Is he related to Mike Hunt?
3. i'm a little surprised by NH, seeing as they were so timely on the MLK day thing.
4. it's so true. i bought only fresh fruits/veg/meat this week for groceries and it was PRICEY.
1 - aaaahhh!
2 - he's so adorable, man. adorable.
3 - faith in humanity: +2
4 - that shit is the devil! and it's effing everywhere! in bread even! wtf.
5 - psychiatric ward, anyone?
Speaking of domino effects...Oregon just moved another step closer by passing a domestic partnership bill and what they are calling the Oregon Equality Act. Of course, to keep everything in balance, state rep Dennis Richardson compared the passing of these laws to the VA tech massacre...talk about batshit crazy, good grief.
Kat - Yes, refined sugar and salt are both awful, but at least our government doesn't subsidize their production like they do corn, resulting the overwhelming prevalence of HFCS in most foods and beverages. In fact, the government overtaxes sugar to encourage the use of HFCS over sugar. Oh, god, it makes my head hurt.
Sysm - ::fingers crossed for the domino effect::
Bug - I love Mike Hunt.
Kendra - Live free or die, baby!
Kim - Ohmigod your new avatar picture is delicious.
ML - Welcome! Hooray for Oregon! Boo to nutjob politicians!
Yay Stephen Hawking! I love him. HIm and his little robot voice, and his 80-million megavolt brain. It must have felt so liberating to float, weightless ...
also, that plane is known as The Vomit Comet in the space explo community.
Colbert, ftw.
I sculpt and his technique is really good however what he sculpts is dubious in my opinion. It seems to me he is a publicity seeker who sculpts controversial subjects not because they are important but because they are controversial. Do you really think naked Celebes with their legs akimbo are art?
SG - I know, right?! He's a pimp, yo. If I had majored in engineering instead of math, I would have had a chance to ride on the vomit comet myself. Curses!
Mr. Kahn - Welcome! I find your avatar picture unnerving. Colbert appears in the Friday Bouilliabaisse because he is my sexy boyfriend and I love him. Does that cover it for you?
Sculptor - Welcome! Personally, I think anyone with their legs akimbo is art.
