Saying yes...

Really?? Or Alternate Title: Truckling to the Low Brow Tastes of Readers

A new-fangled nighttime bra that erases those pesky cleavage wrinkles?? I don't know about you, but I think I'll take the wrinkles over wearing this thing... and if I did have to wear it, I'd probably rip it off in my sleep ala Von and her night guard.

I have to say, I found this part kind of amusing...

Before using La Decollette, please make sure that you moisturize your cleavage with your regular nightcream.

Following these directions is a photo of a lovely woman wearing a pearl necklace. I guess we know we know what kind of night cream we should be using while ironing out those rascally wrinkles...

If I posted nothing else...

... during this time of year... my blog stats would still go through the roof due to this one post and the hits it gets from "Stale Peeps", "Peep Jerky", "Shelf life of a Peep", "Do Peeps go bad?" searches.

And yes, I'm still glad I tasted it. And yes, I'd do it again.

(side note: I love it when the category section is as long or longer than the post.)

Next time I listen to the GOP, I should hold a cup of coffee...

Obama, Tea Parties and the Battle for Our Brains

The conservatives are not fools. Because their highest value is protecting and extending the conservative moral system itself, giving Obama any victory at all would strengthen Obama and weaken the hold of their moral system. Of course, they were going to vote against every proposal and delay and filibuster as often as possible. Protecting and extending their worldview demands it.

Obama has not understood this.

Go read the whole thing... it's worth it.

Calling all scientists!

I spent this past weekend at a 12th Night celebration, which was very, very nice, but continuing holiday activities has only further confused my already out of whack time sensors. My brain is telling me Christmas is right around the corner, but my calendar is telling me it's time to plan for the February SCIENCE FAIR!!!!!

Grizzled and I usually have plenty of ideas for the Science Fair... my daughter usually has ideas for the Science Fair... this year though we seem to be drawing a blank. It doesn't help that the SF has now turned into a car show of sorts where kids expect to come away with goody bags and lots of freebies. I applaud the person who can make a science experiment that is not only educational, but entertaining, but at some point, the exhibits became about what they were handing out and last year what they were handing out had nothing to do with the PROJECT!!! I'll be darned if I'm going to make canapes for my child's booth. I will also not advertise her booth, I will not decorate her booth.

What I will do though is ask for suggestions because my brain is not cooperating. This is  elementary school so nothing dangerous... nothing messy, nothing fun. :(  I'd be tossing endless rolls of Mentos in Diet Coke bottles if we could do that! Never has nucleation been so FUN!

I'd just like my kid to learn, but it wouldn't hurt if the activity was a show-stopper... a crowd-drawer... you get the idea. And remember... The Bernoulli Levitator is SO last year!!!

Okay, send in those suggestions!!!
