Somehow my site has become a bulletin board for Marshall Dyllon fans. And here’s the culprit.

I guess Internet Tonight repeated my interview this weekend, because I got another flood of site traffic and 3 people in town stopped me on the street to say that they had seen me on TV. What a weird feeling. I’ve previously bemoaned the fact that practically no one who actually knows me in real life reads my site, and now I’m creeped out by meeting people who have seen it.

Yeah, all the other bloggers are doing it. So I made a storTrooper figure of myself.

But I’m a little disappointed by the wardrobe — I couldn’t quite make the little fella look like me.

Check out all the other bloggers who have been storTrooperized.

DoomBuggies.com. Thanks to Bill, I wasted about 3 hours last night learning all about my favorite Disney ride, The Haunted Mansion. This ride left the longest lasting impression on me from my first visit to DisneyWorld — not because of the ride itself, but because the male workers all wore very cool & creepy looking tuxes. Add to that my enjoyment of the Jungle Cruise skipper’s outfit, and it’s surprising it took me so long to realize I have a uniform fetish.

For the most exhaustive info about the ride, check out the incredible doombuggies.com.

3, 2, 1, Penguins!. An absolutely lovely shockwave game, involving launching penguins into space (via The Stuffed Dog).

FreakyLinks is back on FOX for the time being, meaning I get to oogle Ethan Embry once more.

fightforyourrights.mtv.com. Someone commits a hate crime every hour.

A cross is burned every week.

Watching MTV’s marathon of hate crimes coverage is very, very sad and overpowering — I don’t think I can stand it much longer. Sure, it’s cheesy, by it reminds me how scary this country is to live in as a member of a minority. Unfortunately, the audience this exercise is aimed at (white aflluent teenagers and young adults) are the most likely just to turn off MTV for the day.

I really don’t want to see the story of what happened at my university last year pop up as a simple anecdote on the screen, but it was high profile so I’m sure it will (while looking for that link, I came across this recent hate crime that happened in the dorm I helped supervise last year).

I’m finally getting over my cold, but I managed to fall down a storm drain (seriously) tonight and I bruised and skinned up my left leg a bit (haven’t they heard of putting grates over drains here in Missouri?).

My poor, old battered brown jacket still smells of smoke from the last time I went to a bar (end of November). I decided I might as well make it official and repurpose this coat as my uniform for drinking.

I want to get over this cold so I don’t sound like Harvey Fierstein anymore.
