This is what I was doing instead of paying attention to my last contracts class: collecting entertaining Cthulhu links. Let us start, shall we?, with the Elder Gods Dance, which plays the Hamster Dance backwards (how else?) and features dancing Cthulhi. Cthulhus? Cthulhim! *ahem* it’s going to be a long couple of weeks. Moving on! [...]

March 26th, 2009 · by xJane · 3 Comments
One of the many reasons I don’t post with my IRL name here (I won’t say “real”, since xJane is just as real in many ways) is because I am attempting to manage my image. In our internet age, I still find it to be very important to not ruffle feathers in a public way [...]

Spark: Vermont Approves Civil Marriage
March 24th, 2009 · by xJane · 2 Comments
The Vermont Senate, finding (correctly) that Civil Unions for gay couples fall short of providing equal rights, voted overwhelmingly to approve Civil Marriage for gay couples. The matter still has to go before the Vermont House (and since I’m late to this, may already have gone), where it is expected to pass. The margin by [...]

Music Monday: Midnight Special
January 26th, 2009 · by xJane · 8 Comments
I did not know anything about Credence Clearwater Revival (or “CCR” as they are affectionately known) until I took a road trip a few years ago with my sister. We had, as the only CDs that were acceptable to all members of the van (my sister, her husband, myself, and their 4 children), two CCR [...]

Spark: Rindercella and the Pransome Hince
January 21st, 2009 · by xJane · 7 Comments
When I was a kid, we had the story of Rindercella taped to our refrigerator. I loved reading it. I grew up in a family where the dominant form of humor was puns, including Spoonerisms. While I was first discovering teh Intarwebs, I looked for Rindercella, a candidate for being somewhere online if ever there [...]

Sparks: I Couldn’t Keep Them to Myself
November 17th, 2008 · by xJane · No Comments
Obama’s first YouTube-Side Chat. I’d love to get the audio in podcast, since I have more time to listen than to watch. I’m so glad that he’s doing this (I’ve been saying for some time that the Fireside Chats need to be brought back, to increase trust and transparency; in this case, also to increase [...]

AWOL
November 12th, 2008 · by xJane · 3 Comments
I’m sorry I’ve not been posting recently, law school has finally caught up with me and consumed my life. I had to cancel the event that makes the holidays bearable for me (a goose-filled gamer fest) because I simply hadn’t the time to prepare and plan it. One of the prospective attendants told me that, [...]

Fair Use, the Internet, and some Funny
October 30th, 2008 · by xJane · 1 Comment
Synchronized debating. This is exactly why the internet is so important. Why fair use is not just some abstraction but something that affects each of our lives. And, it’s funny. So learn more about both candidates and a little something about the wonders of the internet: Get the latest news satire and funny videos at [...]

Biblical Fail
October 30th, 2008 · by xJane · 10 Comments
I have to post this, since it’s lolreligion. By now, I’m sure everyone has heard that a particular Christian called others to join in prayer at the bronze bull on wall street to ask god to “shift from the bull and bear markets to what we feel will be the ‘Lion’s Market,’ or God’s control [...]
