The desert is filled with the ghosts of our ancestors.

Whilst roaming the desert in Tucson, I got myself lost. While trying to find my way I encountered three wise raccoons; heading east. I asked what they were looking for. They responded:

"uh... Goldschläger... um... Frankenstein... and... Myrrh!"

I told them I was Myrrh. They followed me home.

After hearing about the nightmare of the ENTIRE room being billed to people recently BEFORE the con, I decided to check on my reservation. It appears to be still valid and nothing has been charged. Maybe I am one of the lucky ones. Check your CC balances!!

(a lot of furs are) AT MFF!!! ROOM 103!! (at the phoenix Red Roof inn where I am stuck for work)

In just... a few short hours... I will be... READING endless posts about MFF while I am stuck working in Arizona. :P

Seriously, everyone have fun. That's a great con. :)

Seen in junkyards in Phoenix.

Out in the desert, everything is real legal-like...



Don't smoke in a Volkswagen!!



When putting your IROC in primer, just tape off the stickers. Oh yeah that looks great.



They don't make dashboards like they used to!

December 18-31 - Tucson, AZ

A couple weeks back I went to the Independence brewery anniversary party. There I got to hang out with Jasper... the star of the brewery and the dog on the Jasperilla Ale. :)

I am officially tired of YOUR church, YOUR family, YOUR morals, YOUR beliefs, YOUR bible.

Kindly keep it to YOURself. You are very noisy.

Fine, fine I'm going to YOUR hell. It's all very nice. Keep talking to your invisible man in the sky and tell me how you aren't crazy. Because yours is the only true belief, right? Your invisible man in the sky can beat up another invisible man in the sky, right?

If you are religious, take the teachings about loving one another. Listen about helping people and trying to accept. You don't have to like everyone, just realize YOU and YOUR religion isn't the be all and end all of the world. Put down your sign and go help out at a soup kitchen or something.

Stop bitching about how all of your god's creatures are different and how you hate them for it.

Simply put, why should 'the many' dictate the rights for 'the few'? I hear people say 'let the people decide!' Well, is this fair to the group that is out numbered?

Take it back a bit. 1967. Where was the people's vote in Loving v. Virginia? That Supreme Court with their activist judges made Interracial Marriage legal! How dare they? Before then, let's say if I married an Asian woman, from 1952-1967 most of our lovely states would not recognize it (although... Maine WOULD).



I say BRING THIS BACK TO THE PEOPLE! A white man married to a black woman... why... that is against my family values!!!! Let the people decide! Put it to a vote! States rights!!! I want this type of marriage allowed in Vermont, but not in Alabama!

Ok, ok... I am joking, of course. However, this is why we don't just "let the people decide" the rights of the few. It will need to go to the Supreme Court. It will pass. The religious nuts will bitch like they did in 1967. They will shut up or die off after a while.

That is just the way it will need to go. These state votes don't mean a thing.

Got a question for the iPhone geeks out there. In July I got an Incase power slider for my iPhone 3Gs. Worked great for 3 months. Absolutely needed for all my travel. However, last month it showed a full charge until I unplugged it and then it showed no charge. Tried everything and the case would not charge.

Called Incase and they said there was an issue with them, they don't make them anymore and would give me a refund.

Question is: What power slider is the best to replace it with??

I have not been on in a while because last week I was battling a HORRIBLE stomach flu. Soooooo I was pretty much living in the bathroom all last week.

Thankfully, by Friday I was in better shape for when Wruf came in to town from the UK and we all went to see Wolfmother at Stubb's. That was an AWESOME show. They totally rocked. Some Aussie rock hits the spot!!



Then Halloween came and we all got in suits and handed out candy with the neighbours. Then, after the kids stopped coming by, we had a nice cook out. Was lots of fun.

Do any of my friends on here know about the funeral industry or have a contact with anyone in the funeral/burial industry??

Here's a sticker graphic of the Gremlin from an AMC Gremlin I saw in the Junkyard. Now... I'm an AMC fan, but I always found the Gremlin kind of creepy...
