apparently, my brother can use the word "fag" in a derogative manner, but he can't say nigger or wop or kike without risking parental reprimand. funny, my parents were more tolerant when i was a kid... i wonder why he gets away with it?

i've been editing photos rather than spend time around him and his constant pejorative comments.


so, here are a couple from thanksgiving.

stacey lets tom scritch her chin

and...

several pics from sarah and rick's post-wedding shindig.


after lunch, boy and i are going to go out and play in the eight inches of snow. :)

i
boy and i played in the snow, i had to pull a shivering scottie from underneath the camper van... we then helped my brother shovel snow, brush off the vehicles, and move the vehicles, all with dad directing (he can't do any physical labor like that and shouldn't have been outside, but i couldn't make him go inside. when he was moping about for stuff to do, i had him spread ice melt on the black ice at the garage entry).

then boy and i played some more. came inside, started some laundry, took a shower. now i'm sitting down and relaxing. i'm going to edit a bunch of doggie and snow piccies soon, though.

muslims, arabs sue INS and ashcroft over detentions

while i'm a very cynical person, i still sometimes hope. and i really hope this lawsuit gives an appropriately big smack in the ass to the powers that be.

moscow officials pore over potter books.

checking to see if they incite religious hatred?!? i don't think they themselves do, but some narrow-minded folks get riled up by folks with imaginations, i hear.
i find it very neat that brindle and wheaten scotties have color variations along individual strands of hair.

neil is wheaten. in that pic, you can see his mottled blotches of skin showing through (his hair is cut short now). his hair is almost gold along his back, with white patches and shiny bits here and there. it seems to shimmer, because of the color variation along the strands. he's also much smellier than bailey (muskier).

bailey is pure black. he has little silver/clear strands here and there. bailey seems kinda stinky for a dog, but maybe boy dogs are stinkier than females (our previous dogs have all been female).

yes, both dogs are rescues.

my parents love their boys. the boys make [livejournal.com profile] explodingcat very sick. tomorrow, that will change as we're travelling to NJ, land of stinky stacey. you can expect my sniffly, sneezy, scratchy posts in the few days to come.
