Gotta Go, Pig! I'll See You Later!

[shanmonster]

Hey!

I just realized I'm not at work.

Huzzah!

Today has been very productive. I made a silver/gold mermaid skirt this morning, and am currently working on a black PVC dance top. The skirt is far too sheer for my liking, but I think that if I put a black and gold overskirt with it, it might not be so bad.

In any case, I must call my sewing short right now. It's time to go give a floorwork class.

But here are the links....

Bra Ninja: Possibly NSFW. Partial nudity.

Muslim feminists battle against 'macho' views: "The advocates -- mostly well-educated, urban women versed in the Koran -- argue that Islam must not be a pretext for cultural practices denigrating women, dictated by men with a monopoly on interpreting Islam's holy book."

Should severely disabled kids be kept small?: Bonsai children.

Sesame Street Video: I loved this video of a rolling ball bearing as a child!

Police Blotter: Most entertaining one I've ever read!

Utah's Public Enemy Number One Arrested: Nice face. Can someone tell me what those numbers are in the mugshot? One side might be inches, but what's the other?

The other side of numbers on the mugshot appear to be centimetres past the first metre. 72" is appr 181cm.

The numbers are centimeters, each line is for 2 centimeters. Plus, they left off the 100 part. :P

Bonsai children = scary.

Nope THIS is the best police blotter

Check this - a police blotter that often uses verse (in limerick, haiku and free-verse foems!)

Hm, two episodes of "stunting" referenced in your link dump, but only one got a ticket for breaking a law....

Hey Shan, do you have any recommendations for places to buy reasonably-priced belly dancing attire? I went to Fabricville here in F-town looking for fabric for a veil, but they did not have the fabric I wanted that was both a) drapey enough, and b) wide enough (since I'm a little on the tall side). Any recommendations would be wonderfully helpful! Thanks!

They one I liked was the "nine, ten, el-evuuuhn tweeh-EH-EH-ELLLLLLVE!!!"

It was animated and it was always cool. :)

I liked this picture of the skinhead:

awesome!

How did the class go?

Dangerous?

How dangerous can he be? According to the article all he was a "felon armed with a parole warrant." That's like what, a piece of paper? No wonder he was hiding in the attic.

Oh the other numbers, the 5150 on his face mean he's been involuntarily confined either in a prison or a mental institution.

Judging by his choice of ... decorations I would say both.
