Lil’ Monkey: There’s a funny thing about apples.

Baba: Oh yeah? Tell me about it.

LM: The skin gets in my teeth: that’s the one thing. And the other thing is the funniest thing, is it makes a crunchy sound. “Kcchk.” Like that. That’s the funniest thing.

I think it’s the funny thing about the rowdy and apples.

The rowdy stuff in it.

B: Is that what makes it go “Kcchk?”

LM: Yeah. “Kcchk.”

    Beautiful picture of the lil’ monkey, and I will never be able to look at apples the same way again. I’ll always be thinking about the “rowdy stuff in them.”

    Firstly: Oh my GAWD those eyes.

    Secondly: Wait till she finds out that apples are, like all matter, just whirling bits of dust and light. Rowdy indeed.

    Thank you, Auntie Rache. Me, too.

    And Blue Ox: Yeah, tell me about it. Trouble, that starts with “T,” that rhymes with “P,” and that spells “Pupil.” Or Iris. Whatever. I’ll be sure to tell her that she’s already intuitively grasping quantum physics.

    LD's No on California Prop 8 fundraising

    Goal Thermometer no-on-8-cutie



    The time to step up is now.



    See that cute kid there on the right? My son. The day, this July, that my partner and I got hitched. It was our fourteenth anniversary. Help.

    Featured election news/analysis:

    Ellen DeGeneres: "My Political Point... And I Do Have One," on 24 Sept., 2008 at her site.
    The wording of Prop 8 is tricky. It’s like if someone asked you, “You don’t want dessert, right?” But you do want dessert so you say, “Yes,” which really means you don’t want dessert. And if you say, “No,” which means you do want dessert -- it sounds like you don’t. Either way, you don’t get what you want. See -- confusing. Just like Prop. 8.



    So, in case I haven’t made myself clear, I’m FOR gay marriage. And in order to protect that right -- please VOTE NO on Proposition 8. And now that you’re informed, spread the word. I’m begging you. I can’t return the wedding gifts -- I love my new toaster.
    For those that missed it, here Ellen is chatting with McCain (2 Sept., 2008) on the topic of gay marriage.
