As an advocate of the Big Mac Aesthetic, I feel that the disjunctive perturbation of this website endangers the devious simplicity of the substructure of critical thinking.
I’m surprised that no one’s mentioned yet that the subaqueous qualities of the Egyptian motifs spatially undermines the exploration of montage elements.

The write to act
I am always complaining about writers block, writers amnesia, and a general creative inertia on my part However, I have noticed that lately I’ve been offering crit and feedback on the work of lots of my much more prolific friends. So maybe I’m not as stuck as I imagine I am.
The thing is, as when I’m putting my own stuff out there, I tend to get The Fear. Whereas when I’m...

Stupid work!
Every month, its the same thing - The Saturday Club rolls around, and I stress to the max about a 2 hour, one off session! Which no one ever turns up to! Sigh. The problem is, it’s my session - I have to create a new one every month, and this takes time. Time which I always seem to run out of ‘cos I’m running about like a mad thing doing stuff for other things that people ask me...

Can't I be the party dude?
“Must get sis to fix when she comes home 4 hols (shes the donotello of our house, shes good with machines)”
Tweeted by my little bro about 12 hours ago. Just goes to show the lack of technical competency in my household!
Also, speaking of twitter, the news of Britney Murphy’s death is sad, but why do all the media outlets feel the need to broadcast celebrity twitter messages...

Highlights from this article:
“For every woman who has ever obsessed that her chin was too long or that her eyes were set too close together, scientists appear to have a new message: You might be right.”
“That may be bad news for gals who don’t conform, but the upside, says Pallett, is that even if your face isn’t perfectly proportioned, a strategic haircut can...

Now entertain me, for minimum wage.”

I worked for 24 years for the Miami Herald. We parted ways in July 2008 during a staff-reduction effort. I have been unable to find work since.
I continued my insurance coverage under COBRA, paying the entire $579 monthly premium.
Aetna has notified me that when my COBRA eligibility expires, it will not insure me for any price. Why not? The company didn’t say, but...

“Mortal Kombat Is Not A Tournament,” written by Brian and Murph and animated by Mike Parker. I love this. Digg it.
Of course, the main concern of the kombatents should be that Shang Tsung seems to have written everyone but Jonny Cage off from the offset: it’s a fight to the death! (in theory, but not really) If I were Lui Kang, I’d be pissed!
Nice one.
