BOCHUM, Germany -- Are you a lefty or a righty -- kisser that is? A German psychologist in Bochum, Germany, claims most people prefer to tilt their head to the right when they kiss. More revealing is that he claims the preference is developed in the womb and probably lasts a lifetime.

hrmmmm....

presenting, your terrorist attack grocery list:

A three-day supply of water - they say a gallon a day, per person...
Non-perishable, nutrient-rich foods - bring on the PB&J! and don't forget that old fashioned can opener!
3 days worth of prescription medications and/or baby supplies
Plastic sheeting and duct tape - gotta seal up them doors and windows if it's a biological attack...
Lots of batteries and flashlights, and a battery operated radio/tv - the storm last year made it abundantly clear how important this stuff is...

is it just paranoia that causes the glut of articles about this stuff these days, or is this stuff really going to be a necessity...only time will tell...
i am:

FRIES
You Are Fries. you're usually confused and
complicated. You have no clue where you are,
after all you came from an ugly potatoe, got
cut up and deep fried. Confused, but unique.

my new favorite TV show: "Penn & Teller: Bullshit!" - yup, that' s the name of the show...they've debunked alternative medicine, psychics, and ufo's in the shows thus far...the alternative medicine was a trip - they had a guy in the mall, giving free "snail mucus facials" to cure wrinkles - people had these slimy snails crawling all over their faces, then afterwards they swore up and down that their wrinkles were gone and they'd pay 25 bucks for that sort of thing at a spa...alrighty...of course, in this country Penn & Teller have no need to worry about running out of material - this place is full of bullshit!
so, the Mutual Friends CD Mix Mixer was a success! There were 8 (or was it 9) of us, everyone bringing a mix of fave tunes to the Abbey and hanging out and chatting about music and stuff and thangs...very cool - it's gonna be a somewhat regular occurance, i'm thinking every other month, or quarterly perhaps...

now i've got all sorts of cool music to listen to!
Happy 59th Birthday Alice Walker!

i cum in peace!
the Fort Wayne Museum of Art is exhibiting some Picasso stuff...the Fort Wayne Museum of Art?!?
well, decided to go with the Indiana Arts Trust license plate - we could certainly use more art and culture 'round these parts...besides, the mental health people weren't ever around to take my phone calls with questions...perhaps next year i'll just go with a personalized plate - suppose BIG DYKE is taken? ;-)

interesting article on slate about the whole specialty plate issue...

just shut up and do it already - http://www.patriotsforpeace.org/
dammit, it looked like a good mix on paper, but it's not flowing, and my attempts to change it aren't making it any better....argh...

saturday's the mutual friends music mix mixer - looks like there'll be about 8 of us swapping CD's at the abbey...

i'm refining my mix since i'm not totally happy with the first one i burned...figured i'd make it easy and do favorite songs to favorite soundtracks to favorite movies...now i'm finding more songs that should be added, and that the first mix i burned just didn't quite flow very well, so i need to take some tracks out...this may have to be a series of discs...hell, i've already made one disc of nothing but tunes from john hughes movies, and even that one didn't have em all...
