Why is a raven like a writing desk?

Thoughts both confusing and enlightening.

Christmas, LA Style

elbeno, 21 December, 2009

The sun is shining, the grass is green, the orange and palm trees sway…

And I am driving through the neighbourhood when I see a woman standing outside her house. She’s blond, tanned, and “dressed” in a red bra, panties, and heels – you know, for Xmas. And her photographer friend is taking her Xmas photos.

Just another normal December day in greater Los Angeles.

Talk Like a Pirate Day

21 September, 2006

    Tell Becky to get the wig off and put her clothes back on!

    Meanwhile the transport network in S/E England grinds to a halt yet again because of snow and ice (I know! In December)!

    I don’t think anyone’s seen more than just my eyes peeking from under my scarf in days! Which isn’t bad because I’m so pale I would blind people with the glare off my skin. In a dark room, even.
