That's right. I'm done.

MUST SEE

When this comes to a theater near me, or when it goes straight to DVD, I'm throwing a BIG OLD drag queen party. Seriously. You have to see this. RuPaul is back. S-T-A-Double R-BOOTY!

If YouTube had existed...

...when I was 16, would this be my video? Thank GOD technology really picked up after puberty.

WARNING: Don't watch this video on speed. You may pass out.

My belated tribute to Jerry Falwell

Jerry, Jerry, quite contrary,
said the gays should never marry,
Stole the ministry of Tammy Faye,
and assured the sinners they would pay.

So here's a toast from all your faggots,
may your skin get 'ate by maggots,
your fatty stomach will fill with gas,
and finally your soul will pass,

To hell you go, my bigot friend,
all bad people come to an end.



May the world remember you only by this picture. Amen.

Mimes! At Brown!

Stumbled onto this little video. Thought you Brown kids might get a kick out of it. It's a troop of mimes invading the Absolute Quiet Room. Tehehe.

Our Priorities

I just read this fascinating little piece about how much the war in Iraq costs. In case anyone was wondering, we're quickly approaching $456 billion. Seem like a lot of money? Well, the Boston Globe breaks it down for us:

According to World Bank estimates, $54 billion a year would eliminate starvation and malnutrition globally by 2015, while $30 billion would provide a year of primary education for every child on earth.

At the upper range of those estimates, the $456 billion cost of the war could have fed and educated the world's poor for five and a half years.

Blog Stalking/DON'T READ IF EASILY DISGUSTED

********DON'T READ IF BODILY FUNCTIONS GROSS YOU OUT********

So, my new favorite habit (as opposed to writing papers that are already past due) is blog stalking or "stogging." Tehehe. I love portmanteaux. Anywho, so while reading my good friend SheWasNiceToMice's blog, I looked down her sidebar and clicked on a random friend. I read the most recent blog posting of said friend's blog, and decided it might be informative to read the oldest posting of said friend. This is what I did, and THIS is what I came across. I guess I have to give this blogger credit for a colorful posting!

I've been stricken for the last 5 days with a stomach virus that I contracted from my friend Dede (pronounced Day-Day). I call it Dederrhea. And if you'd like to know more about it, read the rest of this paragraph; otherwise, I suggest you seek the shelter of a more prudish blog. It's basically made me pee out of my butt... only less like peeing and more like a giant tsunami--large enough to destroy Asia five times over. Sometimes I've had to flush in the middle of Dederrhea attack. That's how bad it is. Gross, huh? Well, it's almost over, I hope. Although the last time I thought it was almost over, it just got worse. Whether or not it's over, I've somehow now been given the World's Worst Sinus Cold. I've never produced so much mucus. It's like all the Dederrhea I was pooping out has reversed gravity and turned into snot. My body's a wonderland.



Pretty good, no? I could imagine the scene perfectly. I should invite this guy to my writing workshop.
