marriage 'protection' week

I had been avoiding this whole topic, but mrmoonpants wrote a lovely rant about 'marriage protection week' with references and everything, which of course I found through daegaer, who's been writing lots of wonderful stuff about people misusing the bible.

And okay, since I'm buying into the topic, I'll pass it on. (Ganked from tronella.

-------in other news----------------

Mom is on her flight back to Korea today, and I didn't get to see her on her way out. I went to work and asked if they could spare me and they said no (not surprising, we're so understaffed.) Later in the day that made sense, but at first I didn't feel like I was needed all that badly. And of course I could have gone in later, but you know how that works. Anyway, Caw played host to my Mom and Uncle and it all worked out okay. I arrived home to find a huge stack of mildewed things Mom left for me to sort through. *shudder* One box is my brother Hawks old tapes - his entire CD collection was stolen this summer while he was in Seattle, and Mom hoped having his old music might help a little. That really f-ing sucks. Hawk has very excellent taste in music and collects some rare finds, he's a resource for me and probably for other people as well, so this theft impacts more than one person.

--------------and in Sox news----------------

jimdes is another true Red Sox fan - he avoided watching the game.;)

Poor lemondropgirl is devastated by their loss.:( As, I'm sure, are many people.

--------Art stuff----------------------

Am perusing some of lekythen's lovely art here. I like Pilot.

---------Edit--------------------

I have to add this, because it captivated my imagination and made me laugh: The Return of Hobbes - a lecture (with class discussion questions at the end!) on how Calvin and Hobbes grow up to become "Jack" and Tyler Durden in Fight Club.
