Looking for interesting geological features
I am looking for interesting geological features in the county. I am pretty sure you can see fault line in the west part of the county but I am not sure where. Anyone know? I am also looking for good erratic boulders. Erratics are large stones (they can be small stones too) that were left by the glaciers. They are usually quite large and relatively round and smooth. They are not the kind of rocks that come from Indiana's bedrock. They are usually found out in the country where farmers have drug them out of fields. I know about all the artesian wells so I am good with that.

Go Green - Recycle Congress in 2010!
I do not like this Uncle Sam,
I do not like his health care scam.
I do not like these dirty crooks,
or how they lie and cook the books.
I do not like when Congress steals,
I do not like their secret deals.
I do not like this speaker Nan,
I do not like this 'YES, WE CAN!'
I do not like this spending spree ---
I'm smart; I know that nothing's free.
I do not like your smug replies,
when I complain about your lies.
I do not like this kind of hope.
I do not like it --- nope, nope, nope!
Go green - recycle Congress in 2010!

Updating my computer and windows to 7
My old flea market computer was on its last bits, and the USB slots were not working the way I needed them to . . so I broke down and updated to a faster Hertz, more gig and Windows 7. Called up Marvin and he came over and spent some time getting me started today and will be back on Saturday to finish up.
So at least today I was able to get most of it up and running and I have just finished adding some extension to Google Chrome, and next I need to work on my speakers so I can enjoy music as I am working on my computer blogging and all. This newer flea market computer seems to be running faster and it...

Question of the Day
We haven't done a "desert island" question in ages, so here we go… As always, the desert comes equipped with a power source and kickass entertainment system.
Were you to be stranded for an indefinite period of time, which one book, one album, and one film would you want to have with you?
Book: The Complete Works of Shakespeare
Album: "Strangeways, Here We Come" by The Smiths
Film: Harold and Maude

This is a real thing in the world.
[Image Description: Two cake toppers photographed on a store shelf. On the left, a thin white bride dragging a thin white groom across the ground by his collar. On the right, a thin white bride grabbing a thin white groom to stop him from running away.]
Mama Shakes sent these charming cake toppers to me with the note (which I am publishing with her permission):
Hi, Sis. I didn't know if these were nice enough for your "This Is a Real Thing in the World" feature. I know you may find it surprising to learn I spotted them at Wal-Mart.I am shocked. SHOCKED, I tell you.

Today's Edition of "Conniving and Sinister"
[Background.]
See Deeky's archive of all previous Conniving & Sinister strips here.
[In which Liss reimagines the long-running comic "Frank & Ernest," about two old straight white guys "telling it like it is," as a fat feminist white woman (Liss) and a biracial queerbait (Deeky) telling it like it actually is from their perspectives. Hilarity ensues.]

This is so the worst thing you're going to read all day.
[Trigger warning for discussion of body image.]
Many Americans Don't Even Know They're Fat.
Of course we don't. Because the DEATHFAT! has mememtoed our memories and shrunk the stuffin' in our brainpans!
You really expect my critically addled fatbrain to be able to remember that I'm a fatsronaut once I walk away from the scale or the mirror the closest stranger calling me a fat cunt when the DEATHFATZ ARE EATIN MY BRAINZZZ?!
For the record: I know I'm fat.
