Holy shit you guys Bell is fucking crazy.

Okay, so a few days ago I needed to call Internet tech support and it took them like ten minutes to find the account. We only have three possible phone numbers it could be under, and only one that it was likely to be under, and none of them worked. Eventually we found it by looking up our last name and ( Read more... )

So yesterday morning Hubby found one of our snails on the outside of the fish tank, instead of the inside. It had climbed out and was sitting on some plumbing near the bottom of the tank around the back; really, it's only sheer luck he spotted it but that was helped by it being fairly large (a little over an inch across; it's a "mystery snail") and ( Read more... )

Today, as writing practice, I am letting my son Karl make a post. So, here he is! ~Kryss

hello everyone I've been making a Minecraft adventure map with IJAminecraft and logdotzip's one command block redstone creations it's going to be about a poor person who has only a small house in a medium village with a bunch of big houses so he works a lot get ( Read more... )

Just took an interesting quiz on my political outlook. Apparently:

You are a: Communist Authoritarian Interventionist Humanist Libertine

Authoritarianism score: 67%
Internationalism score: 33%
Tribalism score: -67%
Liberalism score: 100%

DUDES. Dudes, today I high-fived Chris Hadfield.

:DDDDDDDD

There are not enough capital D's out there, man. Woo!!!

Also, we got him to sign Karl's copy of his book ("An Astronaut's Guide to life on Earth," and a very entertaining read), and also a five-dollar bill. Because, you know what? He was the astronaut who installed the Canadarm II on Mir, and ( Read more... )

Oh, but hey, guess who has two thumbs and is gonna go see Chris Hadfield? This guy! Yes!!

Checked my email today as I do occasionally, and saw a Groupon there for his lecture in Halifax in a couple of weeks. Woo!! I've actually known about it for a while because a relative of a coworker is going but the tickets are like a hundred bucks apiece so ( Read more... )

So, okay, as you can see from the url I was trying to track down a clip from one particular stand-up routine, in which someone in the front row snapped a picture of Robin Williams in the middle of it. He stopped everything, insisted the audience member give him the camera, then pulled out the front of his pants (they had an elasticized waist, I ( Read more... )

So I guess by now you have probably heard that Robin Williams is dead. It's being called "an apparent suicide;" I sincerely hope it ends up it was an accident, because Robin Williams is awesome and no one should have ever deliberately cut that man's life short, not even him. He does seem to have suffered from depression and been manic ( Read more... )

This is just a test to see if the date is still wrong when I post this directly to LJ. No, it's not still fucking 2013. Fuck off.
