If anyone wants it, I can... do that thing we sometimes do.

Yes, please!

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 15:59 (seventeen years ago) link

John, I YSIed and sent to Mark, but I don't have the link with me at work. He should. Otherwise, I'll re-up it tonight.

My brother Mark??

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:12 (seventeen years ago) link

wait, where did you move to evan?

and, speaking of new towns, i've been bummed lately about the whole friend things to. it was triggered b/c my birthday is soon & under normal friend-full circumstances, I'd convince friends to come out on saturday. as it is, i think leaf & i might see a movie or eat food out in the world or something.

hi mark!! you were in my dreams a few nights ago. you had a baby.

― sweet tater (sweet tater), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:16 (seventeen years ago) link

hi kelsey--i don't have a baby!

― mark cunningham (robots in love), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:18 (seventeen years ago) link

i know! but you did in my sleep. it was w/ yer ex . . . C. I forget how it all came about (my knowing about it, not the making of the baby).

However it happened, I hope he was very considerate and asked politely before penetration.

are they aiming to have the birds hump their hats? what is that?!

completely unrelated, but the Batman birds reminded me: i saw a great blue heron yesterday, just chilling in the parking lot to my apartment complex. it was huge--at least 4' tall. quite a beautiful creature.

― mark cunningham (robots in love), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:27 (seventeen years ago) link

wow.

hey -- what's with people using their real names on the sandbox? not that i'm complaining: i have more info to add to my spreadsheet now.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:28 (seventeen years ago) link

I love blue herons. My parents get them by their house. They're so elegant & yet secretly evil b/c they can be so aggressive . . . before my cat passed away, we were always afraid she'd get stabbed by one.

― sweet tater (sweet tater), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:29 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost You didn't have your brother's name on the spreadsheet? I guess that makes sense.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I guess I'm mostly thinking of Dr. Morbius, who was going around posting as Bill Weber for a few days.

now i wish i could have seen it in flight

― mark cunningham (robots in love), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:33 (seventeen years ago) link

I want to see a blue heron. where must one live for such a thing to happen.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:34 (seventeen years ago) link

well, mark is on the west coast & my parents live in delaware . . . but they're usually around water. i think i've seen a couple in minnesota since moving up here.

― sweet tater (sweet tater), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:35 (seventeen years ago) link

birds amaze me.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:36 (seventeen years ago) link

seeing that photo reminds me of how much i love bird legs & toes. on the blue heron, for instance, their legs are so so long & once they get up in the air, everything tucks in so tidy against their belly.

― sweet tater (sweet tater), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:36 (seventeen years ago) link

I've seen a few back home in MI. Sandhill cranes too.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:37 (seventeen years ago) link

I saw one of these standing in a pasture next to the freeway on Sunday.

screw chicks, dude

― grbchv! (gbx), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:37 (seventeen years ago) link

that's an egret, right?

― sweet tater (sweet tater), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:39 (seventeen years ago) link

At the college I attended in the UK, there were a couple of peacocks that hung out by one of the academic buildings. It was beautifully unsettling.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:41 (seventeen years ago) link

i was at an art gallery/farm in new zealand & peacocks ran around inside & out. that was kind of beautifully unsettling as well.

― sweet tater (sweet tater), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:42 (seventeen years ago) link

One thing I find odd is that the joint in the middle of those bird legs is not the knee but the ankle. I think horses are the same way, actually.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Cats, too! The weirdest thing about birds is that their knees bend "backward" to ours.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I love the dancing kitty! I also love birds. Cuddling in bed is great, but I can't sleep that way, mostly because I can't sleep on my side.

This dvd intrigues me.

― Calico (calico), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

that's an egret, right?

Yeah.

― Michael White (Miguelito), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

i saw a few when i was canoeing on the huron river in ann arbor two summers ago.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Bird legs freak me out, actually. Too then, bend the wrong way, looking all reptilian, etc.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:47 (seventeen years ago) link

then = thin

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:48 (seventeen years ago) link

a friend of mine has a story about when she was little: she was always getting into arguments with her brother about whether birds have knees. at one point the argument turned into a physical fight and she broke his arm.

― JuliaA (JuliaA), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:49 (seventeen years ago) link

"Too then" sounds like it could be a synonym for "so five minutes ago."

"Too then -- not enough now!"

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Birds actually do have knees, but they are closer to their bodies and often hidden by their plumage.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Ha.

Sarah, the next time I break up with someone, I'm giving her that dvd.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:51 (seventeen years ago) link

how are things with Emm4?

― sweet tater (sweet tater), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:52 (seventeen years ago) link

The birds' 'knees', like cats' 'knees', correlate to our ankles, not our knees.

― Michael White (Miguelito), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:52 (seventeen years ago) link

What about the bees' knees?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Pretty good, Kelsey. Taking things slow.

― JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:59 (seventeen years ago) link

two lumps please, you're the bees knees but so am i

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Would $30 buy you anything at a Michael Anthony salon? A mani? A pedi? I need to get my secret santa gift. I know she loves that particular salon, but I don't know if it's tacky to give someone a gift card that isn't big enough to cover ANY of the services...

― Calico (calico), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 17:17 (seventeen years ago) link

there are a couple of manicures under $30, Sarah (and a whole bunch of waxing, if she's into that.) also, $30 sounds really generous to me.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 17:35 (seventeen years ago) link

heh
