Have a wonderful weekend.

My darlings, what are you up to this weekend? Alex is going to teach me a little bit of guitar. Can you play one? (My secret fantasy is to be like this banjo-strumming mama!) We're also hoping to visit Storm King to see the rad sculptures. Have a great one, my lovelies, and here are a few fun posts from around the web...

Whole Foods Parking Lot made me laugh out loud!

Love these shoes for the fall.

On chocolate cakes, swirled icing looks much yummier than smooth icing.

Speaking of proposals, check out this marriage proposal!!!

A pretty chambray shirt.

Funny cookie cutters.

These childhood photos make my heart swell.

Under the sea.

Damn, now THAT is a sexy skirt.

Mariah's year of cakes in progress.

What a beauty (and puppy).

Fun wine labels

Alex and I had a few people over for wine and cheese last night, and, just as a twist, we made personal wine labels from Pinhole Press. I used a photo of Paris and the words, "Have a magical evening."

P.S. I'd also love to make this next time, haha :)

From the Library - String Selection


Classical orchestration is often dominated by stringed instruments. Cellos, violins, violas, bass and guitar all contribute significant air time in classical compositions. Even today with the advent of electronic synthesizers, saxophones, and autotune (that's nearly become an instrument by itself), strings are still a dominant part of the music we listen to.

Today's From The Library features an assortment of classical music featuring strings. From chamber music to full orchestration. A little something for everyone.

From the Library is produced by gullar sahir in conjunction with the Alexandrian Free Library Consortium of Second Life. You can listen to the programme now in-world at http://music.radioriel.org, or click one of the buttons below. Today's programme is presented by Edward Pearse.

Candy bars

How many of these candy bars can you identify? (I can see Snickers and Payday, that's about it!) They look delicious.

Keeping Pace with Rapid Extinction

.
Why pros- titution?

What’s the point? Do you ever ask? Women are so into sex now, why should anyone pay for it? I don’t understand that sometimes. If a man wants sex in this day and age, he can just go out and get it almost as easily as a woman can get dick. If he’s too picky he may reduce his chances, but shit, have you ever seen a prostitute recently? I’m not talking about those thousand dollar a night women. THAT SHIT I can’t wrap my head around. You can get all the pussy you want for a few drinks and maybe a sandwich, so why pay thousands of dollars for any? I guess it’s the same mentality that goes with someone paying thousands for a fountain pen.

But have you paid twenty dollars for a prostitute to give you head in a back alleyway recently? Ugh. It’s almost not worth the twenty dollars, because you have two strikes against you.  Firstly, she looks like the southbound end of a cow. Now being a man, you need something to give you a hard on. A butt ugly face just doesn’t cut it. Your dick flags so much that you have to close your eyes and dream of Cindy Crawford, or Julianne Moore. Just don’t open your eyes or look down and you should be able to keep something up with the stimulation of her mouth.

Second, they want you to wear a condom. I understand the need to wear a condom but it also dulls the sensation of the mouth which needs all the sensation that it can get. With a condom a blow-job feels as if it’s being telegraphed to your ass from California. You have to FEEL something to appreciate it. Latex just doesn’t cut it, so you spend $20 to have her play with your dick in her mouth for ten minutes, which feels like its being handled by a tennis ball racquet, and then she beats you off with her fist for five minutes until you cum in the rubber and off she goes with you standing there with your dick out your zipper, wrapped in a sperm filled wrapper.

Fuck that shit. Why pros- titution I ask? We don’t even get the good, legalized pros- titution, like the stuff that they get in Nevada. NO, we get the back alley pros, that are emaciated crack addicts or on some other drug of choice. I say bullshit to that shit. I picked a chick up in a bar for two drinks and a conversation. I invited her to my apartment and in my car, driving down the highway, she gave me a blow-job at 60 miles per hour. Did she make a mess? NOPE. Every drop of cum she swallowed and I put away my dick as clean as if it was showered. Then I took her home for some screwing. Total cost for the evening? $20.00, drinks; $4.00, tolls; $2.00, gas; good sex, priceless.

Why pros- titution then? Can you see the difference already? I have to say, it’s a no contest. Not to me it isn’t. I can’t see the reason why a guy would bother in this day and age, unless he’s butt ugly, and the truth is that there are hundreds upon thousands of butt ugly women just itching for the opportunity to fuck a man without charging him a thin red cent. There seems to be no reason for it, except if you want sex without the relationship. But the honest truth is, there are thousands upon thousands of women who are open to the casual sex game too. So now, what it the excuse for prostitution?

I think that now, there is none. Some men want to cheat on their significant other...but with a crack head? No. They go to a bar or social event, pick up some lonely woman and bang her in her apartment. Then he gives her the wrong phone number and that’s the one night stand for the night. In the morning he returns to his wife with a hokey story about working all night on a project and goes to bed. No need for a prostitute anymore.

Can you give me a good reason why you would go to a prostitute nowadays? I can’t think of one. Maybe you are just into pros. That could be it too. There are perverts like myself with strange predilections. Although prostitution doesn’t appeal to me, I still won’t knock it for the millions of men that still go to them. For reasons truly unknown.

So I ask you again, why prostitution? Because it’s the oldest profession. Ever since Adam and Eve, we’ve had prostitutes. Why do you think there was such explosive population growth in the Garden of Eden? Because there was a red-light district in that motherfucker. Simple as that. We’ll never lose the need for prostitution, even if I tell you all that it’s unnecessary. You’ll still continue to run out there and fuck the shit out of whores. Why? Because they are so fuckable.

I mean, I can see going to Vegas, getting smashed on alcohol, blowing hundreds on craps and blackjack, and then picking some dimestore cockcruiser off the street, bringing her up to your room and pounding on her until her false teeth rattle free of her head. But that is good clean fun, and fun is what it’s all about in life. Prostitutes are like rollercoaster rides. It’s not imperative that you ride one, but you do it for the thrill and to brag to your friends that you did.

Prostitutes today are the last of a dying breed. Most of the young, useless women are heading towards porn, since there is such a terrific demand for women fucking on camera these days. The Internet has made a submarket for young girls fucking on Internet Cams, called CamWhores. So there is no longer a need for real whores. Whores will soon become an endangered species and we’ll have to have rallies and collections for the preservation of the dwindling red-light districts where they can run free.

And I would like to own one. Maybe snag her and put her up on my wall, naked and alive, or let her roam around free in the house with a collar and a leash. Then there will be contests for who has the best whore, where they’ll be groomed and well fed and walked around on a pageant stage and the winner will get tons of money. And my whore will come out in first place because I’ll have her blow all of the Judges. And I’ll start a kennel of them.

And, and, and.....

Homeless people can dream, can’t we? I mean, soon prostitution may be gone, and there will only be the old memories of street walkers. Probably their skeletons walking with their purses, leather boots and mini skirts in museums, like the dinosaurs. It will be a brave, new world then.

OR maybe not.

Just Call Me Auntie

by Susan Sey

My summer has been frantic.

All summers are frantic, I know. They're billed as the height of relaxation--all hammocks & cool lemonades, campfires & fishing--and I seem to remember that experience from when I was a kid. But now that I'm a mom, I'm manufacturing summer rather than experiencing it & it's a hell of a lot busier.

This summer, for example, one of my kids got the theatre bug so next thing I know we're committed to rehearsals from 6-9 p.m. four nights a week.

And then there was Summer Academy for one kid. (It's an extension of the school's Gifted & Talented program, so how can a decent parent say no?) Summer Academy had us at the bus stop at 7:15 a.m. for all of June. So our day started at 6 & wrapped up at 10.

Then there was RWA's national conference backing up to the Fourth of July weekend, and then there were houseguests. Lots and lots of houseguests. Beloved relatives, yes, but...right there in the house.

Then my sister had a baby. And whenever one of my sisters has a baby, I load up the kids in the big green van & we drive twelve hours home to Michigan to greet the new cousin. (It happened twice last year, & once this year. I have a lot of sisters.)

As you might imagine, I was exhausted by the time I rolled into Detroit. Really, honestly, to-the-bone exhausted.

Then I met Lucy Abigail. (This isn't her, btw. Out of respect for my sister's privacy I found a random cute baby on the internets for your viewing pleasure.) But still, there she was. Lucy. All 6 lbs, 10 oz of fresh-out-of-the-oven miracle & I thought, "Why don't I drive home more often?"

Seriously. That is the severity of my weakness for babies. I hadn't slept more than five hours at a pop for a month, I'd left house guests behind & would come home to another set (once more beloved relatives but still) and here I was trying to slot more travel into the schedule.

I'll admit it. This is an addiction. I have an addiction to babies, & I will move heaven & earth to feed it. Especially if they are my sisters' babies. Holding those fragile, precious little bundles of brand new life, inhaling that new baby smell, knowing this is my blood even though I didn't have to do irreparable damage to my own ha-cha-cha to bring it into this world? It's a miracle, & it gets me every single time.

How about you? Do you have any unreasonable addictions you'll go to any lengths to feed? Obviously mine is nieces & nephews, but I'll also cop to Diet Coke & romance novels. Your turn!
