My bathroom flooded last night, so no blogging today. Go watch this instead.

2008 Presidential Candidate Matching Quiz

I knew there was something I liked about Mike Gravel, creepy campaign ads aside. Although, they really should add in a question on dietary restrictions, since our shared veganism certainly would have put my score more in line with Kucinich’s.

Big Bush vs. East Coast Clam-Hugging Liberal Hippie Vegans

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

So I finally got around to watching the first few episodes of Lil’ Bush yesterday (now that the season’s over - how’s that for procrastination?), and it’s actually funny. The commercials just didn’t do it justice, I guess. I especially got a kick out of this clip.

Clam-hugging vegan goodness at the 36s mark.
 




 
There must be a veg*n on the writing staff. * (Oh, I hope there’s a veg*n on the writing staff!)

* Reason being, I’d expect ‘em to use the term “vegetarian” over “vegan” 9 out of 10 times…do most people even know what a vegan is?

At least *someone’s* finally taking animal cruelty seriously…

Online Dating

This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words:

* death (6x)
* kill (3x)
* suicide (2x)
* murder (1x)

Really? That’s the worst they could find? Mingle’s search engine must not, er, search back all that far then, because I know I’ve dropped at least a few f-bombs over the past 13 months. Ah, well, better R than NC-17…easier to learn the young’uns on the errors of their omnivorous ways when they’re pliable, rebellious teens than rigid, set-in-their-ways adults.

Mighty Morphin Bush Babies

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

Via Defenders of Wildlife, a really cute but totally time-wasting, errr, time waster:

Visit YouWild.org and transform yourself — or a friend, family member, or pet — into a wolf pup, panda, sea otter, or one of our other adorable, majestic, or scary-looking critters!

Just create your personal animal morph page, and then share it with friends, family, co-workers and others to help us raise awareness about the plight of our imperiled wildlife.

YouWild.org is simple to use — you start by choosing one of twenty one different imperiled animals. Then, upload a photo of your own or choose a sample photo from our gallery of people and animals.

Finally, watch as the face you chose gradually transforms into your chosen animal. And if you like the results, you can save your morph and send it to your friends and family (and even post it on your website, blog or MySpace page)!

Here’s Baby Kelly morphing into a chimp. You can see the original photo on Flickr, where it was uploaded as part of my Bush Babies series (“Wow! Brazil is big!”).

Speaking of GW, here’s the obligatory Bush-or-Chimp? morph. Dunno how long the good Defenders will leave that one up, so you might have to create your own.

Mapping easyVegan.info

Tuesday, June 6th, 2006

OK, this doesn’t have much to do with animals, but it’s fun-in-a-totally-geeky way nonethless: a visual graph of easyVegan.info. Hopefully I’ll be adding dozens of additional dots in the days to come.

You can get your own here.
