And now for some more pimping:
The girls and I are walking as a team for the Susan G. Komen Greater NYC Race for the Cure to fight breast cancer. Our team is called Tits, Inc (name courtesy of Miss Pena). I'm walking in memory of my dear friend Debbie Robertson, a.k.a. "Cybermom" who died in February 2000.

I'm gonna pimp this like crazy, so beware.

This was video taken by Linn during her visit last May. It's Progo beating up the log (a.k.a. "His Girlfriend".) Later he'll bring her chocolates and beg for forgiveness.

I really like the typo at the beginning of the post below this one, so I'm leaving it.

I recently changed my desktop at work to a painting by one of my all-time favourite artits, Mary Blair.
I've loved her work since before I knew who she was. She was a conceptual artist for Disney in the 1950's, designing for films like Peter Pan, Cinderella, Song of the South, The Three Caballeros, The Little House and Alice and Wonderland. She also designed the It's a Small World ride and my beloved mural on the Grand Canyon Concourse of Disney's Contemporary Resort. (See my pitifully dark attempt at snapping the five-legged goat.)
I'd lusted after a coffee-table book about her for years and finally indulged myself with the Amazon certificate I got for my birthday this year.
See more of her work here and here.
I wish she was still alive and would design a new blog layout for me.

OK, time for the pimpin' to commence.
People have asked me to pimp things before, but usually I'm (a) Too lazy to do it or (b) too forgetful to do it or (c) don't really care for the stuff.
This time I mean it. My baby brother's got the single nerdiest online store I've ever seen. It is truly staggering, the geekiness of his product. Lovecraft references. Tolkien references. Used lab equipment. It's awesome. Apparently, a Tolkien reference wasn't nerdy enough, and a chemistry reference wasn't nerdy enough, so he combined them.
That's kind of genius.
My favourite, though, is the Caffeine is the Fuel of Civilization line. Turkish coffee for the Ottomans; chocolate for the Aztecs; tea for the Chinese. Because I have a real caffeine problem, I find this to be the best idea ever.
Anyway, I'm proud of the freak. He's putting himself through college creatively. You have to love that. I hope he sells out of all of them.
I just want to know what a Liebig Condensor is.
