2. I saw the Best. Bumpersticker. Ever. 'Nixon is no longer the worst president in history'

A light and fluffy Three Things
1. That 70's Show AND Will & Grace are both back on Aussie Tv this week. The gods have smiled on me.

three things
1. Clinton scores a slam dunk. Rock on Billy!
2. It would take 142.19 cups of 'brewed imported tea' to kill me
3. Just in case you were unsure how to pronounce 'barbiturate',
here's a handy chart for ya. It's a really funny list. But I must admit there are a few things on it that I've said....oh, not that I would say them now, oh no, I'm far too sophisticated for that.....

2. Finally, useful origami (but why is the Bounce in the kitchen?)
3. Now don't get me wrong, I love my cat. A lot! And the Kattbank is probably the most brilliant kitty litter box I have ever seen. But for Pete's sake, I think it costs more than my first car!

three things (the photo edition!)
Looks who's got a new toy!
Yeah, I thought I should try my hand at shooting film. Rob says that this little camera comes well regarded. So there is a roll of black and white in that bad boy and I'm itchin' to get shooting.
But ya know what's funny? the film cost more than the camera..lol
Here's one way to get kids to smile at the camera ;)
I've found a local place that sells the ever-so-cool GorillaPod Tripod. I've been jonesing for one of these ever since I saw Phineas' when we were in Chicago.

three things
1. I'd love to buy these and put them on all the bloody SUVs around my library but I'm pretty sure council would frown on it. And I kinda like my job....
2. I wonder if I could make this kick ass space saving desk-bed-thing out of stuff from IKEA?
3. A joke for ya:
George W. Bush went into a library and announced in a loud voice "I'd like a cheeseburger and fries please!"
The librarian replied "But sir, this is a library!"
"Gee, I'm sorry" said the President, then whispered "I'd like a cheeseburger and fries please". (a big shout out to Snarky for that one)

three things
The Good: DIY Graham Crackers For those who DON'T live in the US and still want to make smores from time to time (here ya go Helen!!!)
The Bad: 'Grossest. Pet. Story. Ever.' Do not read this while you are eating, really! (thanks Tankie, sort of...)
And the Fugly: Oh Miss Kelly. I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks she needs to fire her stylist.
"I suspect it puts the old Overalls and Body Suit [Winner of both the Toughest Bathroom Outfit Award of 1993 AND the Toughest Bathroom Outfit of All Time] to shame...Because it generally seems like you're adorably normal and thus should not be cavorting about in anything that smells of Dominatrix. Okay?"
Those gals at GoFug just kill me sometimes. IMHO this is their best post yet.

Three things...
-HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Tonight we are going over to Kris and The Snook's for a bit of Halloween goodness. So lots of photos will be on the way.
-I have posted some pics from Harts Pub on the Sydney SnB site. (click on the link under the blurb about Harts)
-A link for my Mom (I was telling about this blogger who got a visit from the Feds because she has been writing bad stuff about the Prez. Boy I hope some cuff-talkers don't show up at my door for spreading this link....oh well...)
-gg
(note to the Sydney SnBers: the pics from downstairs didn't turn out. I know, I'm really bummed too. I'll get some advice about how to take pics in dimly lit rooms from my photographer hubby. Anyway, I put the best 5 up on the site but if you want the lot just drop me an email and I'll get them out to you. cheers!-gg)

Three things
1. So last night after seeing Fahrenheit 9/11 with Kris and the Snook we stopped into this insane used book store in Newtown (that's a whole 'nuther post!) but while we were hunting through the piles I came across a yearbook from a Normal High School. So here I am, a gal from Central Illinois, living in Sydney looking at a bunch of pics of high school kids from Central Illinois at a book shop in Sydney. ahhh, my brain hurts.
2. Further proof that Prime Minister Helen Clark is a really man. That woman has cojones the size of basketballs! Lordy, she told Israel to take a hike. (just for the record, I like Helen Clark a lot.)
3. File this site under 'duh': johnhowardlies.com

(ok, I had to add this one for Kris. I got this link from my Bro and I liked all the cat sayings, go forth and giggle...)

four things
1. Look Ma, we have those cleaning erasers now too! (click on the top left image) For everyone else, these things rock! They will clean anything.
2. Bees!
3. And I watched the classic film The Great Gatsby last night. (I'm doing a bit of research for a flapper costume, I'll post pics when it's finished) And man, Sam Waterson (aka Jack McCoy) looks like he is about 12! Go figure.
4. Guess what these are:
Nope, they are limes. Rob got them from a friend who has some citrus trees on his property. I had no idea that many limes are yellow. I guess there will be lots of lime n Coke at our place.
