Books and Beer
Written by SBF on July 18, 2009 – 6:10 pmWe’ve been in the new house for a while now, and the only things left unpacked are boxes in basement. Most of that is winter things and stuff we’re probably going to get rid of. Today’s task (before heading out to see the new Harry Potter movie) has been going through all of our books. Including the 12 new books we’ve acquired since moving in but haven’t read yet.
After an hour the boyfriend and I decided that we needed to introduce beer into the sorting plan. It was getting painful to decide what to give away, so we thought a little buzz would help out. And it did. We spent 2 hours total with books and beer and have 8 boxes to give away, and I’m in a great mood.

Another True Blood parody video
Written by Jen on June 19, 2009 – 5:57 pmI know they’re silly and meaningless if you haven’t seen the show, but they give me a giggle. I get them from The Vault.

Vampire Bill’s Cooking Show?
Written by Jen on June 9, 2009 – 2:03 pmWhile I count the hours (not literally) until True Blood starts again on Sunday, I’m getting by on tidbits of news and some videos. So far, this is one of the best.
Vampire Bill’s Cooking Show from Funny or Die:
The impression (voice-wise) is pretty bad except when he says Sookie, but the video is still really funny.

Wanda on Michelle
Written by SBF on June 2, 2009 – 10:55 amI just saw this video of Wanda Sykes talking to Jay Leno about media coverage and Michelle Obama. In this clip she notes that there are people waiting for the “real” Michelle to show up.
Truth. Sorry assholes.
As a commenter says:
I agree to a certain extent that people appear surprised that this Princeton and Harvard-educated former executive knows how to conduct herself.

George Tiller murdered in his church
Written by Jen on May 31, 2009 – 1:11 pmI’m in shock right now. I haven’t posted here about my background with the pro-choice movement, but it’s extensive. And George Tiller was a hero to me and the thousands of women he’s helped throughout his career.
He had been shot twice before, and went right back to work helping women. The third time was the charm.
The shooting occurred at around 10 a.m. (Central time) at Reformation Lutheran Church on the city’s East Side, Dr. Tiller’s regular church.
Wichita police said that the shots were fired from a handgun in the church lobby during the morning service. The authorities gave few details, but said they were searching for a powder blue Taurus made in the 1990s that had been seen leaving shortly after the shooting. They said witnesses had described seeing a white man departing.
Horrifying.
Update: As of writing, 2:20 pm Eastern, police are looking for:
…white male who was driving a 1990s powder blue Ford Taurus with Kansas license plate 225 BAB. The vehicle is registered to an owner in Merriam, which is in the Kansas City area.
Note: I’m turning off comments on this post because I couldn’t stand something disgusting.
