Fury is …

October 8th, 2008

… a designer. He’s inspired by his own elegance. He’s not afraid to get his big back feet dirty and be crafty. If he needs to chew something to get the design right, he’ll do it. His design sense is especially focused on the removal of hard edges — Fury likes soft curves and organic shapes. Even though his styles may sell at retail for hundreds of dollars, his materials are mostly plant matter and paper.

For example, here are a few of his works:

Fury chose the carpet colors for his burrow by chewing on some carpet tiles and not others. Fury has even helped other rabbits design livable spaces — for instance, it’s a big no-no to decoupage anything that’s going to go in a rabbit’s burrow with a reptile and snake pattern.

Fury is also kind and will always lend a paw to help in any design challenge you might have.

Given all these traits, Fury is most like the famed designer Todd Oldham.

This is cool. I really like how it kind of speeds up and slows down in unexpected ways to show how while time may be passing continuously, your perception of it speeds up and slows down.

Here’s a story about this clock.

Lisa always tells me that time is discretized, I think she’s right!

Sinister fury.

God doesn’t cause storms

August 31st, 2008

I’m so sick and tired of religious people (usually evangelical Christians) claiming that God caused this or that storm.

Here’s a video from Dobson’s Focus on the Family, asking people to pray for rain on Obama’s speech:

And if it were possible for prayer to cause rain, would it be “Christian” to do it to cause political disruption?

Thinking that prayer can cause or stop rains, flooding, or wildfires is ridiculous.
People should be ostracized for blaming Katrina on homosexuality. No, I don’t think these people (Pat Roberston, John Hagee) realize just how hateful they are. Or maybe they do realize it and just don’t give a shit.

And yeah, let’s hope that Gustav isn’t as bad as they say it’s going to be. If it is we’ll be hearing from God’s men, telling us it was the gays or Obama or some other such issue.

Long Weekend

August 31st, 2008

Two bits. My great uncle wrote a letter to the editor in The Roanoke Times — his is the one titled “The rich keep getting richer with the GOP.” How awesome is that?

It’s so lovely outside but our Sunday Streets enjoyment was ruined when we discovered BofA has frozen our checking account with no warning and without telling us why and we can’t resolve anything out until Tuesday. :( I hope yours is going better!

Pro-life hunter creationist hockey-mothers of 5, make way to your voting booths!

This is a really weird decision.

DNC Speeches

Hey, I don’t have cable or a Windows computer or a TV with an antenna. So YouTube is my only source for DNC speeches. I made a quick timeline if there were any you missed and wanted to see.
