Would any of you, or anyone any of you know, by some chance have an interest in purchasing handmade cross-stitch ornamental items (bookmarks, seasonal ornaments, etc.)? If I can make sales with the small stuff, perhaps I can work up to larger pieces, maybe custom pieces, who knows?
If there's an interest, I can get started tomorrow, and have a small inventory by 1 July…
Stumbled upon this one in my travels…

I followed a "choco-tacos" interest to its interestor (did I coin a new word?), and found the folloing exercise:
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the sentence in your weblog, journal, or website along with these instructions.
5. Don't search around for the “coolest” book you can find. Do what's actually closest to you.
Well, kiddies, there are about fifty books in a case four feet to my right. I just used the first book my hand found, and got:
The kernel must be configured to send redirects.

The United States Supreme Court has voted to allow private interests to seize private property. In the words of dissenting Justice Sandra Day O'Connor:
…the specter of condemnation hangs over all property. Nothing is to prevent the State from replacing any Motel 6 with a Ritz-Carlton, any home with a shopping mall, or any farm with a factory.
It seems that certain interests have decided that, having effectively denied the individual the means to defend himself and his home, now is the time to complete the maneuver.
On my way out of the building, earlier today, I happened upon the landlord. He was talking to an older gentleman who stood, manilla envelope in hand. Immediately, I wondered if the landlord was trying to sell the building again. If I suddenly have to pay market rate, I won't be able to afford to live…
I think I'm beginning to see the appeal of psychosis. When there's no hope of a productive, rational, existence, you create a world all your very own, curl up in it, and foist it upon anyone who happens by. This might even go a long way to explain why so many nutjobs sleep so much: Their dreams are better than anything they could have while awake…
I saw the LJ propaganda about the "tags" that one can now attach to a journal entry, and figured that I might as well try to see what this was all about. I figure that it's naught but fluff, but what the hell…
Call me weird, call me what you will, but does anyone else see even the most marginal resemblence?

Spouse's father is coming by for a visit next week. In the process of cleaning the place up a bit, I wanted to use a chemical cleaner on the inside of the toilet bowl. This works well only if the bowl is reasonably free of water. I could have closed the valve on the supply line and flushed the bowl, but for the fact that I don't trust the plumbing to hold together under the strain of turning said valve.
What to do?
I stood by the toilet for perhaps 10 or 15 seconds, then a light bulb switched on over my head. I went to the kitchen, snapped up a bamboo skewer, took it back to the bathroom, whereupon I ran it under the fill valve's lever with the ends supported by the front and back of the tank, wieso:
This held the fill valve closed, allowing me to empty the bowl and scrub away.
Having solved a problem by adapting materials intended for other purposes, I had to smile and wonder: Is this the definition of intelligence?
