(from Haroun and the Sea of Stories)
Tonight, in addition to work and yummy Thai food, DDR Max (very fun!), a hot bath at last (divine!), and some frightening links:
- More than you ever wanted (or needed) to know about how maraschino cherries are made. That certainly puts a damper on my desire to practice knot-tying.
- via Daintily Dirty, a frightening assortment of prayer panties.
Aeromouse!

“To give a thing a name, a label, a handle; to rescue it from anonymity, to pluck it out of the Place of Namelessness…”
It’s a beautiful quote. Apparently it also describes what someone did when they came up with “prayer panties”… *shudder*
I will think twice before eating another maraschino. :)
Never click the link without getting a warning. Never click the link without getting a warning. Never click the link without getting a warning. Guess who I’m going to try to get to screen all these links for me from now on. :D
Maraschino cherries aren’t that scary if you just think of them as sweet cherry pickles.
We world-premiered a staged reading of the Haroun script at St. Olaf my senior year. It was lovely.
bleach is good for you ;-)
hey, this had you written all over it.

Some would-be biblical phrases God left on the editing room floor:
“And the Lord said, let there be prayer panties.”
” And manna and thongs rained down on the Israelites, and there was much rejoicing.”
“I am the alpha and the omega. It was *I* who put ‘Jesus’ in G-string!”
after reading about food escapades amongst you and the gaw, i swear i want to be invited to lunch one day! yum. salivate.
And via Zannah, but too scary to link to from the entry itself, here’s a frightening article (with picture) of the man who set the world record for piercings with 702 surgical needles.
