Arkansas changes state seal

Here is the original version.

And here is the revised state seal.

Spanish for your Nanny

A delicious, tangy palette cleanser to savour after reading this sugary, overcooked paean to the Holy White Child in Manhattan by The Washington Post.

Republican-Free, For All!

Well, a girl can dream...

Dogs in the Manger

Not as cool as the All-Devil Nativity Scene I saw in Tijuana a few years ago, but not bad. You can buy the dogs in the manger here (and some cats, too). It's not much of a stretch to imagine the caganers for these sets.

Other interesting interpretations of Nativity Scenes include sets made of sand and human hair and bears and robots and toys and ice and granite and cookies and machine parts and yarn and rubber ducks and chickens.

Ann Coulter Has a Posse

And that's a posse I'd rather not know. Ms Coulter recently said that Jews need to perfect themselves by becoming Christian. (Ms Coulter says a lot of things that are pretty stupid, but I'll let you look up those quotes yourself.)

Here are a few other images of Ms Coulter, collected around the internet for your enjoyment:

A sticky situation

And to clean your brain: Everybody's got a posse except for me and my monkey

True Stupid Confessions...

...or why idiots shouldn't be allowed to teach science to American presidents.

At least this idiot recycles.

More Horror Heads

As I posted over on Seven Deadly Sinners, I brought these girls home with me last night.

Too Much LSD Girl, Eyes Like Wormy Poo Girl, Even More Maggoty Eyes Girl, Bukkake Girl, Eyes Sliced in Half Girl and Marty Feldman's Daughter join Many Dribbling Eyeballs Girl, Explosion Face Girl, and Looked Too Long at an Eclipse Girl in my bathroom cabinet just waiting for a night of fun filled frolic, silk teddies and pillow fights.

Wait on, girls. Wait on.

Eight Things Meme Response

I wuz tagged! And now:

1. "Four-eyed bat" is what the mean kids in 4th grade called me (I was the only kid in the class with glasses). I think it's funny...now.

2. My favorite animal is the mimic octopus

3. I forgot how to ride a bicycle.

4. I love Dinosaur towns!

5. My name is a joke in Toronto.

6. I have a crush on Murdoc Niccals.

7. I have a hard time respecting "environmentalists" with more than 2 children.

8. I break chain letters.

I confess

One of my guilty pleasures is reading confessions sites. At the top of the heap is Post Secret, and I like Not Proud a lot, too.

Then there are the sin specific sites, like True Mom Confessions and True Dad Confessions. They've recently branched out to True Office Confessions and True Bride Confessions (and yes, that's my confession in the picture).

They say they're working on a site for stepparents, which should be interesting. I can't wait for that one.

!!!On0z!!11!! Pitt Bebeh wearz deth shooz!!!!!!

It has been reported that young Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has a pair of these shoes. Some mommy bloggers have their panties in a twist over the idea that a baby would wear these; after all, "They just came into this world & we feel it necessary to dress them in symbols of death?" I guess slagging their mom in a public forum just after they come into this world is A-ok though.

I'm pretty sure their outrage is less about the Death Shoes, which are at least affordable (although they don't seem to be on the Kitson site anymore) and more about the snob appeal of spending too much money on your mini-me. I mean, take a look at the shoes they do like; ugly, ridiculously expensive and reinforcing the clothing price double standard for different genders before the kid is even weaned.

Me, I'm just bummed the Death Shoes don't come in my size. One more thing to be jealous of the littlest Pitt for, as if gorgeous parents, fabulous wealth and a seemingly loving family isn't enough.
