rmd | meanwhile, in "giant squid" news...

did a giant squid hang out on the keel and rudder of a cruising yacht for a while? the pictures and article seem to suggest as much

if so, it's a big fuckin squid. there are pictures of suckermarks. they're big. (the suckermarks, that is. i mean, for suckermarks.)

other randomness...
a while back, the hood air intake scoop on the mini broke off (or was torn off. whatever. i walked by the front of the car one day and it wasn't there, and wasn't laying nearby.) i bought a new one, which comes in "primer" colored. so i'm thinking of painting something whimsical on it before i install it. maybe teeth. maybe something abstract with black and white and red. (the mini's red, but i'm not sure the red body paint i got is a perfect match. i've got a little bit of matching touch-up paint for a smoother transition, tho)

a conceptual successor to "things my girlfriend and i have argued about": things my boyfriend says"

also, dear hillary clinton: stop running for president; just fuck off and hang around in the senate being a senator for a few decades and get some senior charimanship or something. your could-be-campaigning energies will be much better spent distracting the knee-jerk hillary-haters and taunting people like drudge who are all "OMG HILLARY" like the weekly world news is about batboy.
