I've seen similar sorts of thinking around allowing men to volunteer in church nurseries. It makes me sad.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Timelies all!
Quiet weekend here. Gonna go to the library and bring my car to Jiffy Lube. Otherwise, DVDs, computer and DVR time.
Jesus, that's really sad.
Nora, I love that Taz is king cat!! That was so cute!
I am off to GET MY TAT!!!! It's gonna hurt like a bitch.
There was a thing in io9 the other day about lost films--they mentioned Warhol's flim.
Bingo! That's where I got the idea. My brain is awful this week.
I tossed my tablet across the room and onto the floor in my last meeting. I'm so goddamned lucky that I only seem to have a 3mm scratch on the screen. Motherfucker.
Oh hey Nora, are you aware of Julie Klausner? She's hilarious, and on her podcast sometimes talks about cat awards, so I want to send her the clip, so (a) is that OK, and (b) do you want to do it yourself?
A Facebook friend of mine posted this exchange she had with her 5 year old:
ME: Frances, do you like any vegetables besides carrots? Have you had any vegetables at school, maybe, that you like?
FRANCES: Hmmm... Vegetables besides carrots that I like... Well, there's carrots... And I also like carrots... Oh! I almost forgot: carrots!
I can't think of a non-crazy way to explain to her why I find this so hysterical. But clearly, Frances likes carrots.
Aw, Frances, you don't even know how awesome you are.
Frances really likes carrots. And sounds like she'll have a log in here in a decade or so.
So I just did my taxes on H&R Block online, and they are so basic, I can't decide if I should spend the $55 to file with them or just fill out a paper form. Given that typing the info in took me maybe 20 minutes, I guess I'll do the paper and save the money. The good news is I'm getting a bunch of money back from the feds, and owe the state just a little. Sweet!
