I'd like to get one of these hidden doors for my bedroom if I get the condo I'm looking at.



Pictures taken by thrown cameras also has a flickr group.

mp3 of my current music - via

This song was recorded at the bottom of a swamp while the band floated above in a glass bottomed boat. For percussion, the drummer tapped a broken microphone against the boat's hull. To record the vocals, the singer's head was held below the water by his band mates for the duration of the song.


I am a brother to dragons,
and a companion to owls.
My skin is black upon me,
and my bones are burned with heat.
My harp also is turned to mourning,
and my organ into the voice of them that weep.

-JOB 30:29-30

As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless, uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, you've got to laugh, haven't you?

-Holly, Red Dwarf


This is a collection of the best jokes and nonsense from Wikipedia:Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense. The criterion for a joke getting on this page is simple: at least one Wikipedian found it funny. (I dug "from C is for Cookie")

Of particular interest to me was the "Handbook of the Marvel Universe" set... sort of fun to go back and look at all the old weirdo characters I haven't even given a second thought to for about 20 years. The Alpha Primatives! Karnilla!, The Human Zodiac! The Android Zodiac! (Shamelessly ripped off by about every superhero game system at one point or another.)

Also, I didn't know that Scott Lang was born in Coral Gables.

They also have all the old Dragon Magazine Marvel-phile articles.

Lots of assorted gaming stuff here



Microwave squabble leads to stabbing

Tempers flared between two Walgreens workers over a microwave. Police say one grabbed a knife and stabbed the other.
Chicken noodle or tomato?

A Walgreens employee is behind bars after she allegedly stabbed a co-worker in a brawl over who could microwave their soup first, authorities said Thursday.

'I don't know if it the most trivial motive we have seen for a stabbing, but it has to rank right up there,' acknowledged Jim Leljedal, spokesman for the Broward Sheriff's Office.

Mellesia Grant, 23, of North Lauderdale, is charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, BSO said. She was booked at BSO's main jail and is being held on $50,000 bond, the sheriff's office said.

The fight started about 4:30 p.m. Wednesday inside the employees' break room at the back of the store, 8790 W. McNab Rd. in Tamarac.

The two women, Grant and Merloze Tilme, 20, were involved in an ongoing dispute that erupted inside the room, BSO said.

Both women were hungry and wanted to heat soup in the employees' microwave. Authorities said an argument erupted over who would use the oven first.

Grant picked up a large kitchen knife that had been left on the counter and stabbed Tilme in the abdomen, BSO said. The two then wrestled over the knife, each cutting their hands on the blade. The store manager broke up the brawl, seized the knife and dialed 911 to report the melee, Leljedal said.

'It was a pretty bloody scene,' Leljedal said. He didn't know what kind of soup was involved, or whether that that was spilled along with the blood.

''It started in the break room . . . and the two women stumbled into the back of the store. Fortunately, no customers were ever in danger.'

When deputies arrived, the two women were already separated. Tamarac Fire-Rescue paramedics treated them and took them to area hospitals.

Doctors at Broward General Medical Center in Fort Lauderdale are treating Tilme's wounds to her abdomen and hands.

She was in good condition Thursday afternoon, according to a hospital spokeswoman.

Grant was treated and released from University Hospital and Medical Center in Tamarac. She was later taken to jail, according to BSO.

'They didn't get along to begin with,' Leljedal said. ''Who would use the microwave first became a major issue.'

Well, my office hasn't gotten to that point, anyhow!

Wow! That was a tru Scotto-like entry. The soup thing is crazy. She ACTUALLY stabbed her! Not just a warning slash at the arm...the abdomen! I want a secret door too, but not for storage. For secret stuff and quick escapes and hiding from the bad guys. And maybe for in-home hibernation.

It was at the walgreens right near where I work... I get the occasional candy bar or birthday card there.

the hidden doors are nice looking, and seem to do what's needed... I'd love to have little secret space. :)

I remember that one too. I can handle funny October movies better than scary ones. Not as good at that anymore...

I actually have quite a few here (at home) despite having given many to my nieces over the years. There's something very content and peaceful about Pooh....

I wonder what the ratio of gun deaths is to knife deaths. You don't have to look that up...I was just wondering out loud because of the backlash against guns.

Yet again, new articles have come out this week mentioning that Americans are growing even more rude. I have a feeling not many females would have sliced each other in the '50's, over who got to cook their soup first. Back then it might have been something like --

Susie: "Oh! I'm sorry, Mary. You go first!"
Mary: "No. That's okay, Susie. I know you've got to finish work quickly & rush home to get dinner ready before Joe comes home. Be my guest!"

Instead of knifing, Mary would have just gone home & whined, "Darn that Susie Johnson!" to Joe a bunch of times. Hehe. I'm nuts, I know. :D

Oh, I tend to agree... I think knives are more "intimate" than guns... require a lot more drive to actually use them on another person.

It seems that rude/selfish behavior is becoming more and more "acceptable" every day. Not sure what is causeing that.. a backlash vs political correctness? Poor education?

DARN THAT SUSIE JOHNSON!

that's going to be my battle cry for the day. ;)
