Happy Birthdays to All

Even though we’re on vacation, a whole buncha birthdays happened/are happening. So best wishes to Freakniece #1, Little Miss Echo, Greater Czarina, my cousin Kelly, and Ferd!
New “How Stuff Works” Article
My latest article is up over at How Stuff Works — What are wife-carrying contests?
On Vacation
So, we should be well on our way to Florida by the time you read this. We’ll be gone for a week — first visiting the Geek Mom & Dad, then off to visit FreakSis and her family. I’m quite looking forward to a week where I don’t have to write about crab fishing or snake bites or jamming your hand down a catfish’s throat (stay tuned!). I want sun, I want sleep, I want two little blonde girls fighting over me. Send us some good weather vibes. I’ll blog if I can…you can also follow me on Twitter, if that’s what you’re into.

Dear Mr. Potential Horribly Terrible Hurricane,
Please STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM FLORIDA.
Crawling Out of My Skin
I’m writing an article about snakebite right now and you would not even believe the google images that keep coming up on my screen. OH MY GOD. I wasn’t afraid of snakes before, but I sure as fuck am now.
Chuck, this is all your fault.
Clintons 4 McCain – Bringing The Crazy to Denver
Yes, this is an excellent way to support Hillary. I’m sure she’s pleased as punch. As obnoxious as I find Chris Matthews, props to him for giving these people a center stage to show America that they’re complete crackpots. I do wish that someone would point out to these idiots that Muslim does not equal terrorist.
