We lit our candle. Els and I joined the debate watch chat hosted by Rayne. I was a virgin, chat-wise, and was shown a good time. We thank the hostess with the mostess. 11:47:43 PM    comment []

Gotcher candle? Another big game tonight. Vice President Ty Cobb is no doubt sharpening his spikes and sandpapering his elbows. The young Phenom is polishing his silver tongue and practising his swing. The Fat Lady is clearing her throat, but it ain't over 'til it's over. Be one of the thousand points of light in the cheap seats and root, root, root for the home team.  If we don't win it's a shame. Stick a fork in the VP. See if he's done. Amen. 6:59:37 AM    comment []

I AM MY OWN GNOME: SELF PORTRAIT WITH PRE-RECORDED WEATHER Those of you who are familar with the film Amelie will recall that she kidnapped her father's garden gnome, and sent it around the world with a friend working as a stewardess for Air France.  On her travels, the friend took polaroid pictures of the gnome posed in front of various world famous landmarks, and mailed them to Amelie's bemused father.  I don't have a gnome, so I use (if need be) the ten second shutter delay on my digital camera, and posed as my own gnome.
