It’s the end of the world as we know it?

Perhaps Geoff’s obsession with Zombie Apocalypses and similar things is finally rubbing off on me.  Or maybe it’s that the world is going to end a year from now.

Portuguese cuisine is still my friend

but this little clip summarizes some of the problems with it rather well.   And my grandmother and step-great-grandmother both lived even longer than this guy’s mom – well over 90 in Nana’s case and well over 100 in Madrina’s.

Woof vs. Meow

I’ve always considered myself more of an Animal Person rather than a Cat Person or Dog Person.  Those terms always felt too exclusionary too me.  So I found this little thing interesting when it came through my feed today and I thought I’d share it with all of you.  Where do you fall?

Cat Person, Dog Person, or Animal Person?
Quite the chart. Where do you end up?

Of course it doesn’t mention anything about small mammals.  Or snakes.  Do they count as “Exotics?”  I wonder where my work at the museum with raptors and alligators puts me?  Hmmmmm…..

Art so irrationally funny, I’m not sure how to describe it

This was sent to us by the super funny JJ yesterday.  It is a link to art by this guy James.  He calls it “Relentlessly Cheerful Art.”  I can’t say I disagree.  The artist is someone who clearly knows his Geek Culture (yes, there is such a thing) and who also is ridiculously talented.  The art is actually really, really beautiful.  But the subject matter is so strikingly funny I was actually sitting here yesterday, Geoff right along with me, laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes.

It does require a certain understanding of things like Star Wars, Firefly, and Dr. Who, but it also mixes in Winnie the Poo, Where the Wild Things Are (my favorite childhood book), and Edvard Munch’s The Scream.  Oh, and the Muppets.  Lots of Muppets.  Go, take a look.  You won’t regret it.

So, ecards.

Some of you may have heard that today is my Birthday.  I have received some nice phone calls and a couple of nice emails and ecards.

Leave it to my brother to send me this.  My brother is the best.

Kinda makes me wonder what else the day will bring?
