Jun. 30th, 2011 11:06 pmConversation heard between two crazy people on the el. The guy says, "I was sexually assaulted twice in a hospital by a male nurse - once he called me 'Sexy', and once he called me 'The Sperminator'". The woman says, "You may be shrimp and grits, but that don't do no good when someone wants a taco".

May. 19th, 2011 11:20 amA strange thing happened to me last week. I got a letter from my brother Wayne, who has been dead almost a year now. It was a note he sent me in March, 2008, but must have gotten lost in the system and just delivered. The odd thing about it was on the front of the card was a picture of a child going into a dark tunnel, and the caption read, "There is light at the end of the tunnel". A message of reassurance from my brother from the Beyond? I'm not usually terribly superstitious, but I took it as a message from him and was comforted. I cried on and off all that day, and seldom cry.

Apr. 30th, 2011 11:41 pmWhat American accent do you have?

Northern. Whether you have the world famous Inland North accent of the Great Lakes area, or the radio-friendly sound of upstate NY and western New England, your accent is what used to set the standard for American English pronunciation (not much anymore now that the Inland North sounds like it does).
If you are not from the North, you are probably one of the following:
(a) A Southerner who hates Southern accents and tries really hard to "talk right"; or
(b) A New Yorker or New Jerseyan who doesn't have the full accent
Take this quiz now - it's easy!
Exciting words...
Feb. 11th, 2011 12:05 am"I do not want to be the leader. I refuse to be the leader. I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness. I want a man lying over me, always over me. His will, his pleasure, his desire, his life, his work, his sexuality the touchstone, the command, my pivot. I don’t mind working, holding my ground intellectually, artistically; but as a woman, oh, God, as a woman I want to be dominated. I don’t mind being told to stand on my own feet, not to cling, be all that I am capable of doing, but I am going to be pursued, fucked, possessed by the will of a male at his time, his bidding."

Meeting of Styles
Sep. 14th, 2010 02:50 amIf you're in Chicago, there's a great event this Saturday and Sunday down in the Little Village area called Meeting of Styles, which is a group of graffiti artists who have had some buildings donated to them on which to practice their craft.
It's neat because these are really talented artists, but their craft is considered illegal, so they usually have to practice their craft in the dead of night. Here though, they have these buildings set aside for them so they can paint in the open, and let others of their trade see their work as well. Graffiti artists come from all over the world to tag and to view other tagger's work. Here's a link with more info about the event:

And here's my pics on Flickr I took last year....it's a great place to take pictures. Check it out if you possible can.

He had not missed a single one of her gestures, not one of the indications of her character, but he did not dare approach her for fear of destroying the spell."
