Censored

I’ve also made it a no-no to discuss God or his son, Jesus, though you can talk about gods, in the lowercase, all you like. You should also be able to safely say cockerel and titmouse, but not shite, even though I’d like to allow it, but have yet to figure out exactly how.

And, of course, now I can safely say the true name of one of the best actors out there, Samuel L. Motherfucking Jackson.

Oh, and I added a pirate smiley. :pirate: Yarrr!

Washed Out

Jul 28, 2004 ramblings

So, this evening (or… I suppose now it’s “this morning”) I was working late getting map animations done for a show we’re producing for The History Channel, and feeling a bit peckish, I decided to venture out for some fast food. I got to where I normally turn onto Sligo Creek Parkway, and the […]
