Around the Blogroll and Elsewhere

Because I haven't done one in a while, it's Thursday, and I ain't got shit to do, seeing as I've taken some rare days off from work this week to try and gain some control over the massive amounts of clutter I've accumulated and trying to discard things in a semi-green way. Today I'm burning about 2-1/2 gallons of fossil fuel taking massive amounts of packing styrofoam to a company that turns it into toy stuffing, and I'm trying to decide whether to take the dozen or so pieces of clothing I bought in a frenzy of madness a few years ago, thinking I would eventually do the massive cutting and hemming required when you're 4'10" and buy regular length clothes, to the local cat rescue thrift shop or shlep another 50 miles each way on Saturday to take them to Dress for Success.

You'd think American Idol would get tired of screeching pop divas after a while, but I guess not, which is one of many reasons I refuse to watch it. But jurassicpork has a point. This kid is really good. Click over and give him a listen.

And finally, those of you who wondered what the foodfight was all about that caused me to turn comment moderation on, declare the party over and tell everyone to go home because they've had entirely too much to drink, well, they've opened their own Fight Club. Please note that simply by posting this, I may have to turn comment moderation back on.
