Yes, Virginia, Jim may occasionally post here. But you can too!

I've been offering up my unique brand of drivel on several poor bloggers' sites. I figured maybe I ought give people a chance for a little intellectual vengence. Plus I wanted a place to bore people with my pictures.

With some luck feelings will be hurt, egos bruised, and sensibilities violated. Frequently. With great luck they won't be my feelings, ego, or sensibilities. But somehow I doubt it will work out that way.

I absolutely guarantee that spelling and grammer will be heinously butchered, with great frequency. There are two acceptable ways for you to respond:
  1. Laugh -- outloud or otherwise
  2. Drill me with an acerbic comment


"Lay on, MacDuff..."

French Soldier: I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

Sir Galahad: Is there someone else up there we can talk to?

French Soldier: No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time.

When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled. Yes, brave Sir Jim turned about, and valiantly, he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet, he beat a very brave retreat. A brave retreat by brave Sir Jim.

The moose bit my sister.

Ok, this will be inspiring a rule post soon. Essentially it will suggest that y'all not lay claim to others' humour (hey, that is Monty Python) and use quotation marks, exact quotes, and links. Yep -- I'm grumpy today (SURPRISE!).

Fields of Lompoc -- Evening Clouds Approaching

Fields of Lompoc -- Evening Clouds Approaching Originally uploaded by VagabondJim Not much to write today. I t was a hectic day at work because we had a manditory "team bulding event". Everybody had to leave the office by 11am. Don't get me wrong, these are fun events -- but they seem to coincide with days that are awful for me. Sometimes they kill my chance at getting ahead of the L.A. traffic for the drive to Lompoc. And, they occasionally involve doing things that I would rather do with Janice -- and then she's bummed too because we either miss something she'd want to do or she hates the fact that I have to re-do something (which leads her to believe it must be boring me -- usually not a true assumption.) So all-in-all I have mixed feelings. Maybe if they weren't always on Fridays. Anyway that made for a busy day. One without much to share with y'all. I did make great time driving tonight; 2:57 including about a half hour stop at Costco....

Fame awaits

More on this later (damn, I hate workin' for livin') but Andrew Sullivan has some of my stuff on his blog. Click over to: http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2007/05/the_view_from_y_30.html Later Update: So Andrew Sullivan and I don't have a helluvalot in common -- as I wrote to him, it breaks out like this: Andrew vs. Jim * Catholic vs. Lapsed Catholic, Atheist * Gay vs. Straight * Staunch Federalist vs. Not Staunch * Beagles vs. Poodles * American style tea vs. British style (Too long w/ 5 Brits on a very small boat…) * “Conservative” vs. “Liberal” Anyway, in spite of our differences I find his blog to be required reading. He's well spoken, well reasoned, and willing to reconsider his positions. That makes him a great read. So I check in on his site 5-7 times a day. He has an ongoing feature called "The View From Your Window". He posts pictures from readers that show the view fro...

Almost famous, again

I made Andrew Sullivan's " The View from Your Window " again: http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2007/11/the-view-fro-25.html He captioned it incorrectly. I twas actually taken at 00:05 -- i.e., 5 minutes past midnight. The orangish color is from the tungsten filament light bulbs -- while they appear light to your eye, they are really orangish. Your brain is pretty smart and adjusts for this (and for fluorescent, or mercury vapor, or even sunny versus cloudy sunlight.) So, that's the Santa Monica office and the LA apartment....next stop, Lompoc! See also: Fame Awaits
