In case you were wondering, there is a button on your keyboard that says "shift" which will capitalize letters when needed.You did graduate from High School, yes?
like i'm going to take advice about using caps from someone who writes "high school" as a proper noun. ha ha ha...
yippee! i knew that the peaceful tactics of gitmo would yield a true confession from one of its captives. osama who? who cares! our fearless government found the mastermind behind numerous acts of terror in the past 15 years. yippee! and in the middle of making all of those big terror plans, this dude was even involved in the death of daniel pearl. khalid sheikh mohammed is like the forrest gump of terror. george bush, you're the best president ever! dick cheney, i love you, gout and all! yippee!
i know it's going to be a scorchin' 60 degrees today, but please keep those flip-flops packed away. seriously, one of my biggest pet peeves are people who are dressed inappropriately for the weather.
good thing new york city's city council is dealing with the hard hitting issue (no pun intended) of passing a bill to ban aluminum bats from high school baseball games. i mean it really is much more important than historical buildings being torn down to put up oversized, flimsy luxury condos. or hey, why don't we all just keep ignoring the fact that the newtown creek area is a toxic waste dump that never is getting cleaned up unless the city does something about it. or that there is a homeless problem in the city. or how about the insane amount of traffic in a city that has really great public transportation. or that rent just keeps going up and up and up until there will only be investment bankers living in manhattan. or...
i haven't mentioned this in a while, so i thought right now would be the perfect time. as you may already know, i (and others) have this thing going on called 4n publishing, a kid's book publishing company. this means that i also have a nice little publishing blog called fuzzy. also, check out the 4n publishing website. not much has happened with it since the last time you may have looked because a certain someone a.k.a. darkpony is supposed to fix it up and make it so we can sell books through it and stuff. anyhoo, check it all out. there's some good stuff coming up.
so, you might remember this post from a while back? well, miss heather has finally retaliated with this post on her blog. i have to admit that i do feel bad about the personal insults i made about miss heather, but i'm not going to defend my passion for my "shit hole" neighborhood. i spend a lot of time there and would feel the same about anywhere that i lived. it's called community spirit, something that is clearly lacking not only in new york city, but in the united states.
that is to my mother when she is at work and isn't supposed to take personal calls. usually she can sneak in a little chat, but this is what transpired today: mother: department of medicine me: hi mother: this is internal medicine. me: mom, it's me! mother: THIS IS INTERNAL MEDICINE. YOU MUST HAVE THE WRONG NUMBER. me: moooommmmmmm! it's your long lost daughter, hazeldove. (cue tears)
okay, i made up the last part, but i wanted to add a little drama!
time to cancel mother's people magazine subscription
a recent phone conversation: mother: you know who I can't stand? me: who? mother: posh spice! could she ever smile? what does that david beckham see in her? he's soooo cute. me: ah becks.
some things i've been pondering the last few days: -are squirrels the color they are, so they are camoflaged with tree bark? -why does the ringling bros. circus have to walk the elephants through the midtown tunnel when they can just drive them over one of the bridges? -if you changed the address on a netflix pre-paid envelope would your letter be delivered to your destination? is that mail fraud?
that guy who stepped on the back of my shoe this morning, causing my socked foot to get wet because my shoe was 6 inches behind me. i hate that guy. a lot.
