A Bit of Cotton Doesn't Equate Fluff.

So last night was a long one. First there was the Cruxshadows/Thou Shalt Not concert, which was lots of fun, but very hot. I took a lot of pictures, then danced the rest of the concert, so was all kinds of sweaty when done. It was good to see my sis-in-law's little brother there, and Pooka's family! Even her very little sister!

Then it was onto the club portion of the night, so more dancing, and all the old crowd showed up again (all who were present at Anti-Flag), so we had much fun. Also much of the new crowd were there, so I got to play pinball with Ray and Don, etc. Took pictures of everyone again.

THEN! On to Dougie's Halloween party! Man, after an hour or two there, I was thoroughly exhausted, so gathered up Kevin, Joe, Rob and Rob's toy, took them home, then hit the sack myself.

All pictures from the whole night will be up soon, I'm processing them now. I'll post some of them here, of course. Much fun was had though!

Ok, pictures from last night are here.

Because Ray's machine is ass slow, I'm going to post selected pics in four separate categories... please only click on the post you want to see the pics for, or just go straight to the site. First (or last if you're reading this in reverse:

Since y'all are prolly reading this in reverse... the following set of posts by me are pictures separated into categories. Please only look at the set you want to see, or go to the link provided for all of them individually in the last post. Ray's DSL line is ass slow. Sigh.

uhm. They've got to be kidding.

In U.S. Case for Helping Iraq Suffers a Setback,

The United States is doing everything it can to fight their fears. All over the city, the occupying authorities have put up large billboards featuring bucolic scenes of date palms arched over a river bank. Inspirational messages are splashed over the pretty pictures. "Baghdad is getting better," says one.

hahahhahahahhahahahahhahahha. No, really, see the pictures of palm trees? Please forget the nightly gunfire (which is reported by all Iraqis as a way of life in Baghdad these days), and the imposed curfews, oh, and the lack of government.... not to mention the daily killings ... everything is bright and sunny and happy now! Also, how lame can you get to say "things are getting better". I mean, LAME.

Ok, amusement done.
