Why are so many people afraid of fake meat?

This is the seitanic (hardey-har-har) post of the day. My parents are coming to town and I will probably break down and purchase some meat product for them as they are terrified of meat substitutes. Why? You'd think after hanging with my vegetarian ass for more than 10 years a little wheat meat wouldn't hurt them. What sayeth the Asian goddess of text messaging?

"yea though I walk through the valley..."

We went to New Orleans recently and drove around the eastern neighborhoods, then we drove along the coast back through Mississippi and Alabama. Even though it's been almost two years, Hurricane Katrina really, really wreaked havoc on the coastline. This church was one that we saw. I think it sums it up.

New Shoes

Do you steal? I think it's wrong for the most part, but often opportunities arise, and it just happens. How is it that the moral state of Americans is declining so much that theft doesn't seem like a big deal. Neither does driving drunk, breaking probabtion, watching porn, excessive violence...



At any rate, here are some shoes that seem to have lifted themselves off of a shelf of a major corporate chain and made their way onto my feet. They have been disguised with varying lines of black ink.

esoteric text messages

Are you one of those people who text more than they talk? We recently met a girl at an art show, then again at a small festival in East Atlanta. We were supposed to go to a barbeque, but were unable to show up. Conversing with her is the oddest thing in the world. Here is a text message she sent me, relayed by an asian gal with a nicer cell phone than mine:









And I didn't respond, although I felt like I should have. But what do I say? "hey boo yourself! Sit on my lap and we shall do a little jig." Or, "will boo come over and play with me?" Perhaps, "This is boo's boyfriend...girl, you better watch yourself" The possibilities are quite overwhelming, so I ended up with no response at all.



A couple days later, she sent another message. This time, it sounded like we were in the midst of a texting conversation. Hey, Asian girl--what did the text message say?







So, I guess they're moving. What should I respond to my new "boo"? A girl I don't even know? Let's ask the Asian gal:









Sounds good to me.
