Yanno how some people have Angels/Devils for a conscience? I have a Dark Elf ShadowKnight and a Half Elf Ranger for mine. The really bad part is when they agree on something.

I've dressed convincingly as a guy before, so how do you know how I'd react to you dressed in that?

The amount of time it took me to learn the functions of an X-box controller or the PSP leads me to believe that I'd make a poor F1 driver...

So.  A poster of sentence diagrams of action movie quotes.  (Pre-orderable for $29.) Diagramming sentences does, on occasion, involve using other words than the exact wording of the original sentence - contractions, implied nouns or verbs, etc.

Natalie's kindergarten assembly presentation. The kindergarten classes at her school all took part in a musical assembly. I went with Helen and Maggie, and i managed a few pictures. (I really need a longer lens)

A panorama of the whole assembly - Natalie is the slightly bored-looking girl in pink about a third of the way from the left. (A larger version with Natalie highlighted)

Image

After their musical part, Natalie and another girl amuse themselves.

Image

Bored now.

Image

Natalie and her teacher

Image

Helen and Maggie just before the end. Also "Bored Now"

Image

A couple of posters on the gym wall. (The school emblem is an owl. There really ought be posters saying "Read or the owl will eat you.")

Short video of Natalie's class's segment. (Shot with the Nikon D3200.)

An important culinary discovery

When making jambalaya, do not look at the bottle of olive oil and say "That's about how much oil the recipe wants; i'll use it up."

Faintly olive-flavoured jambalaya is eminently edible but a little weird at first taste.
