Giant slayer!
In Memoriam: Rosa Parks, civil rights icon, at age 92 You were a great woman.
I'm still sick. Some cold/flu jobbie. I had a blood nose today too and sneezed blood everywhere. Quite a scene. I contemplated running outside and shouting "I slayed the giant!! I slayed the giant!" with blood all over my hands, but I feared people would not understand my particular brand of humour.
And mace me.

Here's a fun thing for you, before I go to work. You will need a discman/mp3 player (anything that plays music. Wait till it's the dead of night, find a quiet, relatively straight bit of path/road (Suburbs streets are the best). The wider the better. Any large space would do actually. Make sure no one is around. Put on your headphones and close your eyes. I usually choose something haunting from Cat Power, Mazzy Star, Radiohead, Tori Amos etc but I guess you could choose any song. Now play that song, and start slowly walking forwards with your eyes still closed. It is a strange experience. I found it hard to stop my urges to open my eyes. See how far you can get. I did it with New Buffalo's cover of "4 seasons in one day". Nearly made it for the whole song. I also nearly shat my pants. *cough*
Well, off to work. Phlegm and tears for everyone! Gah!
