Something

I keep putting things up here that are from Homestar Runner. Seriously though- the RSS feed is awesome. Slash in general RSS feeds are awesome. Additionally- the Smiths are freaking awesome as well. So is making fire with a bowdrill. Seriously- how awesome is that? I think it's awesome just on principle and the fact that I did it just makes it oh so much more awesome. I mean it's straight up mesmerizing. True story. Next on my list of awesome things to make? A basket made purely of pineneedles and grass. I think I'll make one out of bark too. Another awesome thing? Driving around at night with my windows down and the moonroof open. Yeah. And I'm looking forward to ski season soooo much. It's just like a happy thing to me. Unfortunately it means the end of mountain bike season but honestly- I don't think my bike can handle much more abuse. I still have like... six more rides to go? One last awesome thing? My knife that my sister got me in Finland. The most nicest knife I've ever used. Wow- I'm suddenly in a good mood and I thought I'd let you all know about it.

Here's a little known portion of the Homestar Runner site. It's pretty hysterical. I found out about it on the Homestar RSS feed. At first I thought it was some copycat type deal like the White House feed. But it is actually from the creators of Homestar. I had to clean up Dixie's poo off of the grass today so that the guy mowing the lawn wouldn't have to deal with it. She doesn't poo near as much as I think she's supposed to poo. And the word poo is really awesome. Right now she's trying to watch the guy mow the lawn. It's pretty funny because the couch is right in front of the window so she has to climb up on it but she's too small to make it up.

"In comments on Thursday, President George W. Bush said, 'I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees.'
But Louisiana State University engineer Joseph Suhayda and others have warned for years that defenses could fail. In 2002, the New Orleans Times Picayune published a five-part series on 'The Big One' examining what might happen if they did. It predicted that 200,000 people or more would be unwilling or unable to heed evacuation orders and thousands would die, that people would be housed in the Superdome, that aid workers would find it difficult to gain access to the city as roads became impassable, as well as many other of the consequences that actually unfolded after Katrina hit this week.
