Scattershots...

This is a bit of a catch all post.

Tyler stopped me from jumping into potentially lethal political debate, the other night. So I thought I would just do a post about a smattering of other news, for a change. Because evidently politics has permeated my conciousness more
thoroughly then I thought.

Also had the "Very Scary Saturday" gathering at my place. Several people showed up, some food was eaten. Some beer was drunk. Good times were had by all. Echo was a good sport, brought some positively delectable rice crispy treats and put up with our dorkitude, Tyler made some scrumptious burgers, Guilherme (?) was delightful, Steve, Gabe, and Cation brought delicious beers. Gonna be planning another one of these, for some point in the future. Movie suggestions?

Good times.

A quick round up of the odds and ends that you may have missed.

• The trailer for "Where the Wild Things Are".
• Somebody just has to make these for our next gathering, Vodka Gummi Bears.
• This may be hard to swallow, but evidently, Semen makes you happy.
• Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) is still a loon.
• Classic, satirical and 30 years ahead of its time Richard Pryor (the president called on a reporter from Ebony last night)
• Tyler dug up an interesting article on Introversion, about being more accepting of those who tend to be more reserved.
  
• Jane Austen and Zombies!
  
• And I got my new issue of Gourmet!

-Cheers

-Edit- some extra stuff needed to be added, enjoy!
