Black Magic and Voodoo, I Say!

I've never been a gearhead, but I've always had the utmost respect for the men and women who are. Somehow they manage to keep my vehicle humming along happily and are capable of fixing it when it doesn't. While I can tear down and reassemble a PC in my sleep—and some people have that same sort of reverence for my profession (really?)— I can't begin to fathom what mechanics do…it's beyond my comprehension and this video leaves me shaking my head in amazement. Black magic and voodoo, I say!

Loves It

Oh, how I wish they'd made more of these films. It was one reboot from a 60s TV series that actually worked; no doubt due to the incredible acting talent they had assembled.

The Creeping Sludge, Part Deux

If there's anything I hate more than wasting one perfectly good sick day on actually being ill, it's when I have to waste two.

I woke up feeling like crap and was still hacking my lungs up this morning, but I am feeling much better now.  I'm still coughing more than I'd like, but they're productive coughs and the fever is finally gone.  I was even feeling well enough to get out and meet Ben for lunch at Paradise Bakery.

I've gone a little crazy catching up on my blog posts today (as you have no doubt noticed), and while I'm still not writing much, no one seems to be complaining.  And until I find something Obama does to really get my ire up, I prefer to focus instead on the things in my everyday life that I appreciate, and leave the bitching and moaning to the reich-wingers who are still evidently in a state of denial about the sea change that's sweeping this country.
