The big news is that Scott-O-Rama is back from hiatus and he’s been posting like crazy. Here’s a video of George Carlin laying it on the line and his choice for the Democratic presidential-wannbe. Welcome back, Scott!


Hermit took a quick break from building his Hermitage to capture this incredibly beautiful shot of some flowers set against the Colorado dusk skyline. It’s now the desktop picture at home and at work.

I know of three people who had car accidents yesterday. Here’s Ed’s story.

My favorite movie of the year (so far) just got a release date on DVD. Squeal!

Phillip put together this lovely piece about coming across a dying dragonfly and ponders whether or not to put it out of its misery.

The Rose Report is back! Three of my friends and I decided that we were all very much like The Golden Girls. Hayes is definitely Rose. Here are some Rose-like stories from his childhood.

And finally, Craig got the house to himself and had a little conversation with his wife, Natalie Portman. Quite funny.

  1. Scott-O-Rama Says:

    Thanks so much for the mention and links! It’s good to be back blogging again.

    I’ll check out your other links, but I too have to recommend Craig’s “house to himself” story. He always cracks me up.

  2. Hayes Says:

    Well, I was insulted at first, but I now wear the Rose badge with pride! Thanks for the mention.

  3. Craig Says:

    Yay! You love me! :-)

  4. Howard Says:

    Scott:
    You’re welcome. Glad you’re back.

    Hayes:
    You’ve learned to except yourself. Good job, young one.

    Craig:
    But, of course, I do!

  5. Big Daddy Says:

    Have you seen those fliers and posters around town of ‘The Golden Girlz’?

  6. Howard Says:

    I think I have. I can’t place it though.

  7. Big Daddy Says:

    They’re funny. It’s the Golden Girls all hip-hop’d out in gold chains and Arsenio Hall-hair circa 1990.

  8. Howard Says:

    Nice! I’ll have to look for it.

  9. The Hermit Says:

    Aw, pshaw… you all say the nicest things! Thanks for the mention, and for the ultimate geek compliment of making the photo your wallpaper!
