Dammit! I was hoping I would get Ma’at!

Sponsored by the New York Zoos and Aquarium is Build Your Wild Self. You first begin by building yourself in human form, then you can add your favourite animal parts. C’mon, you know you want to see what you might look like had you been born with butterfly wings, elephant legs or even the eyes of a fly! When you’re satisfied with your new self, click ‘I’m Done’ and learn about the functions of the different animal body parts.
Reindeer Antlers — Your reindeer antlers won’t stick around for long. Every year reindeer shed their antlers in the spring and summer. But don’t worry, they grow back.
Red River Hog Ears — Your red river hog ears have long black and white tassels. They can fluff out as a defense mechanism to make you look bigger and intimidate predators.
Anaconda Snake Tongue — Now you can smell with your tongue! Your forked anaconda tongue collects odor molecules from the air and brings them back to tiny grooves in the roof of your mouth, letting you “taste” the air.
Octopus Arms — Can you imagine tasting… with your arms? Your octopus tentacles are covered suckers that are sensitive not only to touch, but also to taste, so can you grope around for food in small, dark crevices.
Indian Ornamental Tarantula Legs — Danger! Danger! The bright yellow markings on your Indian ornamental tarantula legs are a warning. They’re meant to tell attackers to stay away. You’re venomous!
Lion Fish Fins — Your lion fish fins are actually eighteen long separated spines. Each spine has venom in it to help protect you from predators. Careful where you point those things!
So, go on, have mad, animal fun!
Simple Rules: Take the nearest book next to you and answer the following questions (questions in bold):
Title and Author: Slammerkin by Emma Donoghue
Is the book dedicated to anyone? Yes, it is: “This book is for my agent and tireless ally, Caroline Davidson.” She must be one helluvan agent.
What is the first sentence? From the Prologue: “There once was a cobbler called Saunders who died for eleven days.”
Turn to page 47. Please share the first sentence of the first full paragraph. “She was already pulling on Mary’s stay-strings; she tugged them so tight that Mary cried out.”
I love this commercial! Love it!
I kind of like cheesy archeology toys. This toy was a whole 88 cents worth of amusement. The material that the pyramid was made of stripped off some of bastet’s colour, but I think I’ll paint her.

You may call yourself a tinkerer, a techie, a builder, a hacker, a fabricator, a decontructionist, a DIY enthusiast, a maker, a baker or even a candlestick maker. You have a compelling desire to understand how something works. You aren’t content with LED status lights and plastic casings - you *need* to see the wiring and to understand which types of integrated circuits are being used (digital or mixed signal?). Your fingers show soldering iron scars. You have a shoebox filled with capacitors and inductors. You know how to build it back bigger, better, and stronger. But most importantly, you void warranties. And you’re damn good at it.
Awright, right, so I’m easily amused. This afternoon I spent way too much time on The Dialectizer. Yer can’t ‘ave a knees-up wivout a joanna. The bleedin’ Dialectizer will translate web pages or text into, yer guessed it, different dialects. Right. Among them are: redneck, right, cockney (an example is this post), the bloomin’ Swedish Chef and even moron.
Go on, yer know yor dyin’ ter see ‘ow Elmer Fudd would write yor blog or favourite web site.
I fink me favourite is ‘Jive’.
