…but I reserve the right to post bullshit like this!
Your Language Arts Grade: 100%
Way to go! You know not to trust the MS Grammar Check and you know “no” from “know.” Now, go forth and spread the good word (or at least, the proper use of apostrophes).

Terrorist-loving, pansy-assed liberal = me.
1 Comment Published by Allison December 3rd, 2006 in Amuse Me, PoliticsYour ‘Do You Want the Terrorists to Win’ Score: 100%
You are a terrorist-loving, Bush-bashing, “blame America first”-crowd traitor. You are in league with evil-doers who hate our freedoms. By all counts you are a liberal, and as such cleary desire the terrorists to succeed and impose their harsh theocratic restrictions on us […]

The Cloak. Nice. Heh, um…okay. If you feel such a driving need to read dozens of my ramblings, you go right ahead. Tell ya what — I’ll even unblock your home address IP, just to make it a little less inconvenient for you (and creepy to me). Enjoy!

Mike: Oh! That burns me up Did you see that church?
Me: No. What did it say?
Mike: “No Jesus. No Peace. Know Jesus. Know Peace.”
Me: (mildly confused) Right, and?
Mike: It’s an ultimatum, a threat. […]

Ahhhhhhhh!
I watched Project Runway tonight, convinced from the beginning that Uli would be out. Instead, she pulled out a beautiful dress that still looked very “her” without being a repeat of what she’s done again…and again…and again. (Though, I’d die to wear her couture dress — it was gorgeous!)

Finally, at the end, […]

Nope, not mine this time — I literally mean “the news.” Jim Wallis (Sojourners) and Tony Perkins (Family Research Council) will be on the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric this evening to discus the “Moral Direction of our Country.” I’m recording it, and if there’s anything worth talking (or ranting) about, […]

My fact-checking is falling apart.
5 Comments Published by Allison September 20th, 2006 in Amuse Me, Annoy Me, Culture, PoliticsI recently wrote a post, Our nation is falling apart. As commenter Stevo has pointed out, there’s very little factual truth in the email I received as a forward (what, am I supposed to be surprised, or something?) and grumbled about in this space.
I still agree with my assessment of (and agreement with) the […]

Allison,
Happy one-month anniversary of our first email!
Love you,
M
Is that all it’s been? Seriously? Wow — that hardly seems possible.

1 Comment Published by Allison September 13th, 2006 in Amuse Me, Annoy Me, CultureI haven’t yet explored the local public radio stations (but doubt I’ll ever find one I love as much as KRCC), but I found a decent commercial station while driving yesterday. When I’m north of Monument Hill in Colorado (ie, out of El Paso County), I listen to KBCO, a Clear Channel station out […]

This one came via email, courtesy my buddy Joel out in NC:
Welcome to the 2006 edition of getting to know your friends, AGAIN. What you are supposed to do is copy this entire e-mail and paste it on to a new e-mail that you’ll send. Change all the answers so they apply to you, and […]

(phone call this evening)
Him: So, should we have a theme for this wedding?
Me: Hmmm…well, there could be James Bond; that’s nice and elegant. But, would that make me Pussy Galore?
Him: How ’bout you could wear a halo? I could be Molested by an Angel.
Me: Oh! It could be a divine wedding! […]

I talked to him again this evening, and at some point, I asked if he’d ever watched “House.” No, he hadn’t…but now that I mention it, his housemate tells him that he looks like a guy on the show, Robert Sean Leonard. I told him that I wasn’t surprised, because I’d noticed the […]


Funny how that works.
Last night, I had a spur-of-the-moment meetup with someone from match who’s just moved here, and is primarily seeking new friends (with a relationship in the long run being an obvious benefit). I like him, and whether chemistry develops or not (frankly, I didn’t look for it, but I definitely was […]

Ha…I found this in my “who’s viewed me recently” list:
Sure you can find all kinds of guys on match, so below are some of the types of guys who you will probably find on here… (Okay, I am a smarta$$… but it’s fun…)
1. Mr. Pretty Boy: — Hey, he looks good on your arm, […]
