I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Linkee-poo is convinced they're out to get him

Benjamin Tate on editing experiences (working with an editor). Real examples from the real world.

I'm so glad this kind of shit doesn't happen in the US. Oh, wait, it does. Gee, criminalizing pregnancies that don't go well. Who could have thunk it would have lead to women being prosecuted for miscarriages, drug abuse, non-viable fetuses? Well, practically everybody with a brain, that's who. (Grokked from Ticia42)

Why won't the Pulitzer give the Onion their prize? The Onion is very good to us genre people. And here's a little of us giving back. Just give them the damn Pulitzer already. Do it, and nobody needs get hurt.

Betty Bowers on Marriage in the Bible. Hilarious video. Yep, we should all read our Bibles. Apparently there's a whole lot going on in there. Much of it conveniently ignored by those who admonish us to read our Bibles. (Grokked from Jay Lake)

A Dutch man build's a Noah's Arc replica after having a vision. Uh, yeah, Bob. (Pointed to by Dan)

And another example on why regulation works. I remember running behind the DDT trucks when I lived in NJ. (Grokked from Jay Lake)
