On the meridian of time, there is no injustice: there is only the poetry of motion creating the illusion of truth and drama.

Ways to Waste Your Time

http://www.jacksonpollock.org/

For when the urge to create inkblot art and Rorschach tests is upon you but inkwells are nowhere to be found.

For when you want life to be summarized by a boy and his dog.

For when you are stealthy... stealthy like neenja.

Hitomi-chan

For all the pictures I have taken of O-ren, I've been horribly remiss about taking any of Hitomi, Yarn Slayer. So for those of you who met her months ago, you can officially wonder in amazement at how big she's getting.

O-ren is fascinated by Eddie Izzard and watched nearly all of Dress to Kill with me.
(taken about 2 wks ago)

She may have gotten bigger, but she's still very much kitten. Here she is "nursing" the afghan I'm making Jeanette for Christmas. (btw Sis, as of today, it's 1/3 complete)

Hahaha.. this is me torturing Hitomi. O-ren and I were enjoying the afternoon on the porch. Hitomi had recently been booted back inside as punishment for not staying within the confines of the porch. Not only did she balance on the window trim and lean against the curtain to help her climb the window here, but she also effectively mangled the door's blinds by trying to crawl through them to the porch.

After pulling the bedsheets from the dryer, Hitomi "helped" me make the bed.

My Mother Is Invincible

Just a few days ago, Mum was at home... probably peacefully reading a book, no doubt, when she heard several shots fired very nearby (into the apartment above hers). To better see what all the hubbub was about, she walked outside to see 3 guys running around and then to their car before speeding off. Because, well, you see, she's bullet-proof, you know. My mother is invincible. Isn't yours?

Three held after man wounded in Broadmoor shooting

<http://www.newstribune.com/articles/2008/09/09/news_local/114local02shooting.txt>

A shooting Sunday night in Jefferson City led authorities to detain three people in Callaway County.

According to Jefferson City police, the shooting occurred around 8:30 p.m. at Broadmoor Apartments, 505 Ellis. Officers found a 22-year-old male suffering from a gunshot wound to his hand. He was taken to Capital Region Medical Center for treatment.

The initial investigation showed that six or more shots were fired into the apartment where the victim was located.

Potential suspects were developed and information on them was sent to area law enforcement agencies, including information about what vehicles the suspects may be driving.

Around 10 p.m., Callaway County sheriff's deputies located one of the vehicles with three people in Kingdom City.

That vehicle was found to have been stolen out of St. Louis.

Authorities in Callaway County identified the three as William Clarence Harris III, 24, Wesley Harris, 18, and Joshua Washington, 21, all from the St. Louis area. Each are charged with one count of tampering.




All three are being held in the Callaway County Detention Center.

The investigation is continuing.
