Yeah, there is a one-man matmos under The Hour's articles. It’s scary to poke. It seethes. How easy to forget: [youtube jHPOzQzk9Qo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHPOzQzk9Qo youtube]

I haven't tried a test but it seems that when an post is deleted it is removed from the main thread list but not from the sidebar. I expect NS deleted the post when he realized that the pre-existing-condition police might be monitoring our every word. xD

Thanks for posting this. It's my third read and it's still a pleasure. You hit most of my favorite spots. I like sipping an aguardiente bagaceira at a Portuguese bar. Picnicing at Beardsley really is a joy. There is just something about an Olmstead park where you can find a spot that, for some reason, seems to fit.

Ignorance is bliss? ...but, then again, you had your suspicions all along, neh? It is a great photo. Maybe it's time for a roadtrip with the video camera. I think that I've just found a font of funny (weird, not ha ha) material.

YourCT.com : Vigils Should Be Used Sparingly

Tue, 1 Sep 2009 20:23:28 +0000

I had a similar reaction when I saw that the "vigil" was scheduled from 5:00-6:00, one hour and it misses that whole night kinda thing. One hour seems kinda lame even for a demonstration. Now, if they had made it for 50 minutes, we could smile a bit.

YourCT.com : The August 10th Lightning Storm Over Norwalk Skies

Oddly enough, there was very little thunder. We even joked about it. Instead, I arranged this version of Aogeba Totoshi, attempting to capture the feeling of standing in the yard that night with my family -- comradery & suspense.

TG, forget the argot du jour. Read "Sermons pour le Caresme" by Bourdaloue. I used it to brush up before an audit of a French bank. Pepper your phrases with enough "ne - point" and threats of total annihilation of their souls and you can make a point (so to speak). Trust me on this, Bourdaloue knew how to say it in the 1600's.
