makes a post

to move her face..

I had a really big post going in my head last night. I explored several versions of what I wanted to put down into words, but it wasn’t coming along the way I wanted. The things I have to say, I cannot say mean spiritedly.. even though I would love to, just to tweak the nose of one person.. another person affected by it.. doesn’t deserve the meaness.. and there is no way to seperate the two. So for now, all I will say is that is, artistic interpretation.. mine is obviously not yours, end of story.

There are many other things too.. which I don’t have time to get into at the moment.. Miss Sandi is supposed to be comingn to get me.. and I’d like to have a bit of tea before i go.

xoxo for now.

so much the belly hurts

carrie gave over

this great article on American Idol votes. All I can say is thank God Camille is gone. Now, to break apart the rabid JPL fans.. and it’s good.

Today in History

• 1891 American showman Phineas Taylor Barnum dies in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Though he was gravely ill, the 81-year-old showman’s sense of humor hadn’t deserted him. He requested that a New York paper run his obituary before he died so he could enjoy reading it, and the paper obliged.

• 1927 The first simultaneous telecast of image and sound takes place on this day in 1927. Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover read a speech in Washington, D.C., which was transmitted to Bell Telephone Laboratories in New York City, where an audience saw and heard a tiny televised image of Hoover, less than 3 inches square.

• 1954 President Dwight D. Eisenhower coins one of the most famous Cold War phrases when he suggests the fall of French Indochina to the communists could create a “domino” effect in Southeast Asia. The so-called “domino theory” dominated U.S. thinking about Vietnam for the next decade.

• 1945 On this day in 1945, the Japanese battleship Yamato, ostensibly the greatest battleship in the world, is sunk in Japan’s first major counteroffensive in the struggle for Okinawa. Weighing 72,800 tons and outfitted with nine 18.1-inch guns, the battleship Yamato was Japan’s only hope of destroying the Allied fleet off the coast of Okinawa. But insufficient air cover and fuel cursed the endeavor as a suicide mission. Struck by 19 American aerial torpedoes, it was sunk, drowning 2,498 of its crew.

eh.. memory

i woke up earlier today, and had lots to write about.. but then i dozed back off to sleep and had yet another soap/mylife dream combination.. with a little bit of movie previews thrown in to make it interesting.. and a boy who turned into a cat and ran away wearing my collar.

those fallbackasleep dreams are entirely too bizarre for me sometimes.
