My hero: Philip

October 21st 2009 21:37
This video is so inspirational it gave me a good cry. Filmed during a marriage equality hearing in April of this year in Maine, Philip delivered his testimony to the nearly 4,000 attendees.

As a life long Republican and a veteran of World War II, he displays the kind of courage and compassion that I hope will one day be the rule and not the exception.

Pretty Pictures

September 30th 2009 06:49
I'm feeling wildly cosmic and in tune with the Universe these past couple of days. I was going to write all about how much perspective I've gained of late and how peaceful I've allowed myself to become, but instead I think I'll just share some pretty pictures. If I go on too much about cosmic oneness and healing positive light.... you'll accuse me of being A. Hippy Dippy New Age Freakshow B. Nuts or C. Stoner.

Pretty pictures it is! Although, the pictures in and of themselves and whether or not they are pretty is a matter of personal taste. Ha! Don't care

This is my attempt to put a little bit of beauty out there during this time of Koyaaniskatsi, which is a word of the Hopi Nation...and means Life out of Balance.

Love Prophet

September 29th 2009 07:58
(I'm tuned in tonight.)

To me, there is irrefutable proof of the divine spark. Pure love has manifested on Earth already. Now in the heavens...now in the cosmos...now in the hearts of those who still are tuned in to the blissful frequency that transcends time and death.

Only a man...no. Much more.

A giant. A hero. A gift. A prophet. A light.

Smelling of Earth and Herb and Peace and Love.

Creator of a sacred moment in time that gives tangible evidence of palpable grace.

One Love.

Natalina wants a melt down of her very own

September 26th 2009 06:07
All of life is suffering right? Hmmm. Seems so.

It isn't easy being the person that picks up the pieces for everyone else. I've taken this role my entire life. Whether it's through work or in daily interpersonal relationships....Natalina is the shoulder. Natalina is the rock. Natalina keeps it together so you don't have to

Finally a voice of reason for Barack Obama

September 17th 2009 22:36
Not really. Not at all actually.

In fact, this is the most ridiculous crap I've seen in a while. Amusing? Sure. But also scary

Poodle Humiliation

August 29th 2009 14:10
I can't tell if this is the most obnoxiously amusing thing I've ever seen, or if someone needs to get PETA on the phone STAT!

Poodles have been blessed/cursed with the kind of boingy and moldable fur that just begs human beings to shave them into creative and unique coifs. These poor things have been subjected to some of the most embarrassing buzz and dye jobs I've seen

Naughty Natalina tangles with the Law!

August 27th 2009 21:47
For those of you who know me well, it should come as no shock to you that I've had yet another encounter with the police. The MAN is always trying to keep me down.

Last night, or I should say early this morning, was no different. The facts are these

When being homeless is a crime

August 19th 2009 17:08
In the United States, about one-third of the adult homeless population have served their country in the Armed Services. Thirty-nine percent of homeless citizens report some form of mental health problem, and 20 to 25 percent meet criteria for serious mental illnesses.

Homelessness is often looked upon as something preventable. The faces of the homeless presented on television are often those of junkies and drunks and runaway teens. But, the fact is that in many cases, due to lack of resources or an out of control spiral of circumstances, more and more people are ending up living on America's streets. With unemployment numbers continuing to rise, it is likely that the number of people unable to provide themselves with adequate housing will increase

Don't call your boss a pervy wanker on Facebook (Updated with my own passive aggressive note)

August 13th 2009 07:16
Some idiot, feeling rather disgruntled about her job, decided to spout off about it on her Facebook page. The problem? She seems to have forgotten that she added her boss as a Facebook friend. This is what happens when you're that stupid:

on John Doe’s 15 Favourite Horror TV Shows : Part 1

JD, you and I are on the SAME page with these picks!

Carnivale...Love. It's a series I've watched a few times and I never get tired of it. I'm constantly lending the DVDs out to people (read: forcing people to watch).

Dead Like Me is such a favorite, although I have to say I was desperately disappointed by the movie. Very very very disappointed. It was completely lacking the vibe of the TV show. Sucked.

And in a strange coincidence, I just got done leaving a comment on Bryn's blog mentioning Millennium. I adored that show. Right up my paranormally charged alley! Love love love that show.

Holy Bejeepers, that looks really good! I can't wait!

I hope it ends up as good as it seems because I just have such a soft spot for Lance Henrickson. It's sad that he's landed himself in so many stinkers.

Seeing his face again makes me want to rewatch the old TV show Millennium. I know a lot of people didn't like it but I was a huge fan and have all the seasons on DVD.

In any case, this looks great! Thanks for sharing!

I just have to say...it's been a long couple of weeks for me, and I was in need of a good laugh. This caption did it for me:

Babyface ... not to be confused with the L.A. r&b producer

That just tickled me. Still giggling. I will not waste my time with this film but I'm glad you did, if only so that I could have a much needed chuckle.

Thanks Bryn.

Bathory: Memoir of a Countess by A. Mordeaux is FABULOUS! Really really good and quite detailed.

A little birdie told me that SOMEBODY who has a web site about the Unexplained may have written her own account of the Bloody Countess some time ago....

These are wonderful..slightly whimsical...and scary!

I am morbidly in love with the Bathory pics. Perhaps it's the Hungarian blood running through my veins. (and thankfully not running into a bathtub!)

I have Book of Blood sitting on top of the DVD player ready to be watched. Actually, I've watched the first 15 minutes of it so far and got interrupted. So far so good.

I'll have to look the rest of them up. Thanks for sharing!
