If we could live without passion maybe we’d know some kind of peace… but we would be hollow… Empty rooms shuttered and dank. Without passion we’d be truly dead.

My favorite feminist.

A quote for today
I base my fashion taste on what doesn’t itch.
~Gilda Radner
Word. Only for me, that also extends to underwear. If it looks good, I will buy it, but if it itches, it will find a new home, stat.
And it is the best, b/c it is bestowed upon my humble blog by one of the best people out there!
Of course, as with every Bloggy Award, there are A Few Rules. They are, forthwith:
- Each Superior Scribbler must in turn pass The Award on to 5 most-deserving Bloggy Friends.
- Each Superior Scribbler must link to the author & the name of the blog from whom he/she has received The Award.
- Each Superior Scribbler must display The Award on his/her blog, and link to This Post, which explains The Award.
- Each Blogger who wins The Superior Scribbler Award must visit this post and add his/her name to the Mr. Linky List. That way, we’ll be able to keep up-to-date on everyone who receives This Prestigious Honor!
- Each Superior Scribbler must post these rules on his/her blog.
Now that the formalities are out of the way, on to the good stuff.
I pass this award on to:
Teh Portly Dyke, who in all of her portly dykiness keeps me learnin’ and laughin’.
Renee of Womanist Musings. For never failing to stretch the the way I think.
The Red Queen of Elizabitchez. Ours is a long history of mutual blog stalking throughout all of Bloglandia. Not a troll is safe when we combine our powers against you.
Tobes of Hear Me Roar. She will take a rape apologist to task.
Cecelia from Ojibway Migisi Bineshii, bringing attention to Native News and Women’s stories.
Wear it proudly, all you who receive it! I know I will!
And, thanks, Pido.

Wanda Sykes–Full of Win
The woman who brought us the detachable vagina (*want*) and taught us to think before we speak, has once again warmed the cockles of where my heart used to be.

Soju smells like rubbing alcohol*.
It doesn’t taste much different.
But I think I might be able to like it one day.
Korea, ready or not…
*The bottle in the picture on Wiki is the exact one we just had.

Story Time Sunday
The Three Little Pigs.
The movie Pleasantville was one of my favorite films the year it came out. I have liked Jeff Daniels for a long time (or as Jax calls him, “Rich Uncle Jeff”. He’s a good guy to the people of Chelsea, MI), and it is one of the first movies in which I remember seeing Reese Whitherspoon.
My favorite part was the ending montage and closing credits, which featured a (IMHO) wonderful remake of John Lennon’s “Across the Universe”, performed by Fiona Apple. If I didn’t know better I would think that Lennon had written this song knowing somehow that she would do it some day, b/c she really does it beautifully. I have yet to find it for download on iTunes, but someday I will. This is by far one of my favorite Lennon songs (along w/ “Imagine”, which was the nursery theme I had when The Kid was born…too cute!).
Enjoy.
