… that a book lover must be in search of a better way to store 1500 books in 2GB of space. Been looking at the new e-readers after participating in a survey/contest with an e-reader as a prize. OMFG is this a clusterf*** of a market still. I was pretty young when the Betamax/VHS thing [...]

Popular Facebook app: All talk, little cash – Washington Post- msnbc.com
Posted in Perversity Abounds! on April 22, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Popular Facebook app: All talk, little cash – Washington Post- msnbc.com. Pardon me a small grumble here. Twits. Sure, Facebook Causes may not drive substantial amounts of donations – yet – but it does something useful to raise awareness. MySpace Causes would, too, if they were more stringent about what a “cause” was. And, here [...]

Just like MoreCoffeePlease – Just so I can use “Kiss my 83 year old ass” as a blog title. That is all.
Non-Discounted Client Discount
Posted in Perversity Abounds! on January 19, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I’m partially on retreat this weekend, and going through some paperwork, clearing up my space and my figurative breathing room. On an old veterinary invoice is the following: “Your invoice total reflects out Non-discounted Clients discount.” Non-discounted Clients. Discount. Suuuuuure. Makes perfect sense.
A lighter SPAMtastic moment
Posted in Perversity Abounds! on August 20, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Like many computer techs, I keep a hotmail account almost entirely to use for signing up on websites and collecting spam. Every now and then, the spam that comes in is so ridiculous as to be absolutely hilarious. Today is just one of those days when I feel the need to share it with all [...]
What to Read
Posted in Because GRRLS Rock!, Blogroll, Perversity Abounds! on July 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Handful of links that I’ve been collecting, good reads, just not much I can add. Jump on over to read these. Opted, Pushed or Just Plain Not Welcome? (Via BlogHer – Feminism & Gender.) Let’s Talk It gave me a little thrill to see this article from Michelle Obama appear in my reader – I’m [...]

I’m sure if you add up the number of scented and de-scentING products for both men and women, women would only have a slight edge. After all, the personal care market markets to men almost as heavily as to women about the smell of the natural human body. This may just be the one thing [...]
“Change Policy or Get Off Our Land” – Philadelphia to Boy Scouts
Posted in Because GRRLS Rock!, Perversity Abounds! on June 1, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I’m impressed by this, and I hope it ends well for all parties involved – which it could do with just one very simple change in policy. Evidently, the Boy Scouts council in Southeastern Pennsylvania raised funds 80 years ago to build an office for their council – on public land. The city of Philadelphia [...]
Does having breasts earn fewer NYT Reviews?

One of the various blogs I glance at now and then is Tamara Pierce’spersonal blog. Tamara Pierce is my absolute favorite YA author, and as it turns out, she’s as violently liberal as I am. Reading her take on current events is often entertaining. Recently, she called my attention to an editorial from the Guardian, [...]
