threeplusfireWe went off to see Jonathan Coulton last night. (The Antone's sign hilariously misspelled his name as Coltran, so there were a lot of cyborg jokes.) It was a lot of fun, because it is a sort of music that I haven't ever listened to much but is actually pretty good.
Not everyone in Texas is an asshole. David Bamberger is awesome. What he has done with his land is pretty inspiring stuff.
Betamax home video of the Challenger discovered. It was profoundly eerie to watch. One of my early childhood memories is watching the space shuttle explode on a television perched on a wheeled cart in my kindergarten classroom. I remember my teacher saying "Oh my god, oh my god." They sent us home from school early.
NY Times on UT Austin closing the Cactus Cafe. It makes me so angry. I don't believe that saving $66,000 a year is worth losing the Cactus. The university's attitude over this infuriates me to the point of incoherence.
I really want to try Sun Cups. (Peanut free and gluten free versions of a Reese's cup, made with sunflower butter in milk chocolate and dark chocolate versions.) Perhaps I'll drag myself to Whole Foods to look for some.
My head has hurt all day. Unrelenting, all encompassing pain.

'course, Church's is hardly unique:

Sigh. Don't mean to hijack your post. Fake honey just makes me sad. Time to find some Maru pages.
