Via a new member of
crafty_tardis, a set of downloads to make paper printout tab A-slot B toys. Am linking to the whole page, as I know some of the members of the flist will be interested in the Justice League and Batman stuff as well as Doctor Who.
Never give an obsessive a new hobby (you may have noticed this about the whole bento thing.) Last night I skipped on just about everything I'm *supposed* to be doing in favor of fiddling with exercise mixes, to the point of testing one while it was fresh. And you know I'm not on the treadmill for the love of walking!
Two mixes, interchangeable songs, all the same beat. They work out to just about 1.20 miles each.
The First Mix
1 - Wind It Up (Barenaked Ladies)
2 - Black or White (Michael Jackson)
3 - Joyride (Roxette)
4 - I Don't Feel Like Dancin' (Scissor Sisters) What will I do with myself when I get sick of this song?
5 - Lawyers, Guns, and Money (Warren Zevon)
6 - I Run for Life (Melissa Etheridge)
The Second Mix
1 - Kung Fu Fighting (Karl Douglas)
2 - Tubthumping (Chumbawamba)
3 - Black Horse & the Cherry Tree (KT Turnstall)
4 - Billy's Got His Beer Goggles On (Neil McCoy)
5 - What I Go To School For (Jonas Brothers)
6 - How Do You Do (Mouth & McNeil) I grew up in the 70s, I have no taste in music
7 - Ticks (Brad Paisley)
Speaking of songs, I urge all Americans on the flist to learn the lyrics to "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?" The Post reports today that Nasdaq is set to launch tomorrow what its executives are calling one of the most significant developments on Wall Street in decades -- a private stock market for super-wealthy investors... Any private firm can list on Nasdaq's new platform, which is called the Portal Market, and raise money by selling stock to an elite group of shareholders. These companies would remain private and not have to make public their financial statements or submit to federal regulation, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley corporate accountability law.
Yet again, people are forgetting that things have changed since "the good old days" because 1) the days weren't good and 2) THE SYSTEM DIDN'T WORK!
"Ya had plenty money 1922..."
PS - I never know whether the response to some people in fandom is to grit my teeth and try to be not utterly snarky when I respond "just because you say This Is The Way Things Are, Period doesn't actually make them so, sweetie" or just pat them on the head and say "there, there, it must really suck when you tell people the Right True Way to think and see, yet they persist in having their own opinions."
