No.

  1. The world is falling apart at the seams. Find something important to protest. It shouldn’t be hard.
  2. “Fans of the novel and/or the movie are, obviously, at a greater advantage because they already know what “Remember, remember the 5th of November” means.” So will all residents of Great Britain and the Commonwealth and anyone literate in English. Put down the Gameboy and read a book without pictures someday.
  3. Shut up shut up shut up!

If I could put time in a walrus

  1. NO: AN INTRODUCTION: the Exploding Aardvark shares her “NO” tag.
  2. My del.icio.us stuff tagged “NO” has some links in common, because the ‘vark and I share an esthetic of “no.”
  3. And then, there’s my LJ stuff tagged “no.”

I spent most of the day in a shitty state of mind but had a nice long coffee talk with becauseshewas at which dawn_michele unexpectedly showed too. Good blather was had.

Want to know what keeps me hanging on? Chili pepper, that’s what. Specifically, hot sauce made from my own chili paste which in turn was made from chipotles, chiles de arbol, ancho chiles, salt, and vinegar.

Maybe I should take a jar of the stuff to therapy tomorrow and hand it to Carol and say: physician, spice thyself.

I appear to have at least temporarily lost all interest in cars. How’d that happen?

At long last, they have no sense of decency.

Hallmark hasn’t been bold enough yet, but American Greetings has Patriot Day Cards. The link was corrected from an earlier post where it expired; that one shouldn’t, but it should be findable from americangreetings.com in any case.

If you’d like to tell them what you think of this, they are:

American Greetings Corporation
One American Road
Cleveland, Ohio 44144-2398
216/252-7300
Fax: 216/252-6778

Their toll free customer service number is: 800/777-4891.

Maybe they could tell us where that $2.95 $3.25 is going, or why it’s time to have greeting cards when the hole in New York isn’t filled yet and the war isn’t over and a lot of important questions haven’t been answered. Or what the hell they thought they were doing.

Hmm. Now Hallmark’s site is down for maintenance. I hope they don’t…
