So, Toronto it is again, this weekend. This time, I hope to catch a showing of Repo! The Genetic Opera. I may also go to Sub-Space, but that's more in the air. Fetish nights aren't really my thing, although if I go with a few friends, it might be more entertaining.

It's Kijs's birthday this weekend. Happy birthday, Kijs!

Now, my browser tabs are burgeoning, as ever, so let's purge, shall we?

Four philosophical questions to make your brain hurt: Yesterday was World Philosophy Day (which I'd never heard of before yesterday), and this article is short but good. The first conundrum is my favourite. Now, pardon me while I go organ farming....

MURDERER'S GOOEY PEANUT BUTTER PLOY: Silly murderer. Doesn't he know bodies are made of meat? If he's going to add peanut butter to the mix, at least he could throw in some cumin, red pepper, and coriander to make it a proper mix of seasonings.

Radio caller reveals cannibal habits: Longpig on the drive show....

We Were Made For Each Other: NSFW. Romance is not dead (thanks, Ted).

Oh What a Beautiful Wedding: Romance is still not dead.

Black Sheep and Prodigal Sons: Some beautiful pieces, here. I'm particularly fond of the pendants made from old piano keys and the cottonmouth scarf adornments. Lovely.

Medical Adoptions: "Child Trader is now the nations 4th largest child exchange network and as such, has brought happiness to more than 1623 American households who otherwise had very few options in creating a more loving family and home life when realizing their child wasn’t the right fit for them."

Herod Greeting Cards: Christmas is for children (thanks,

gha5t).

Converting Dead Mormons into Homosexuals: "Mormons have made an overt effort to posthumously baptize Jewish Holocaust victims. That is not merely silly and disrespectful, that is superfluously offensive. An agreement between Jews and Mormons limited the practice thirteen years ago. But the Mormons returned to the practice recently. Well, then of course, many of us rightly took offense for the heavy Mormon influence during the Prop 8 vote in California. Well, I decided to kill two birds with one stone. I am converting dead Mormons into homosexuals. My first Conversion is Joseph Smith."

And this is me, as of about five minutes ago....
