Here’s a quick way to get pneumonia:

1. (night before) Forget to throw undershirts in the dryer, thus ensuring that you will have to dry one in the morning, which, since you will be pressed for time, will still be damp when you put it on.
2. (day of) Get up at some godless early hour at which you are not normally accustomed to being awake. This will scramble your brain sufficiently that step three will practically happen on its own.
3. Leave the house without a coat. It helps if the temperature outside is below freezing with a windchill in the single digits.
4. Develop initial stages of hypothermia while waiting for the bus.
5. Sit back and wait for the symptoms to appear!

I’m currently on step 5.

Responding to ryananderson.com, yep, we noticed that iCE got linked for the quilt (again). That is all the brainchild of Jon. Also, the art-o-matic thing is pretty funny but reminds me of the conceptually wonderful but not-so-great-in-practice website group hug. And while I’m just dumping links, here’s a guy who married Escher and Lego.

This sort of snow I don’t mind too much. It only took about 30 minutes to shovel my driveway and sidewalk, and the roads are clear. With any luck, it’ll all be gone in a couple of days. But I still would rather live somewhere with only two seasons, three max. How are the winters in Rio?

As a former Cobb County resident and member of the much talked about school system, allow me to weigh in on the evolution debate. When you scientists with your book learnin’ thinking you’re so smart wind up in h-e-double-hockeysticks, we’ll see who is laughing! In the meantime, let us worship the football team.
