Beware the ides of January! Oh, how it snowed today! It went for a brief period, stopped, and then came back, all crazy-like.

I heard that it wasn’t going to stick, but it was pretty white out there for a little bit. If it had done its drop after dark, I’d wager there’d have been less sublimation.

Veggie Meatloaf for dinner tonight… nom nom nom.

I’m glad that BHK doesn’t mind my meat-free ways! Larry opted for a fried chicken tv dinner, but Chris was game. I have enough to bring a goodly does for lunch tomorrow, too – with plenty of mixed veggies and peas on the side.

Detour guide to 1970’s TV detectives. This is a pretty good sampling of tv during my formative years.

Random Scotto factoid – For some reason, as a kid, I got Baretta and Columbo mixed up. I got it worked out pretty early, but there was a time that I thought it was the same show.

We took are time eating and talking… after supper, we’re watching a little psych before bed. Stay warm and sleep tight, dear journal.

VIENNA, Austria – A chimpanzee cannot be declared a person, Austria’s Supreme Court has ruled, activists said Tuesday.

An animal rights group had sought to have the chimp, Matthew Hiasl Pan, declared a person in hopes of gaining guardianship of the animal.

The shelter where Matthew has lived for 25 years is going bankrupt, threatening to leave him homeless. Donors have offered to help support him, but under Austrian law, only a person can receive personal gifts.

The Vienna-based Association Against Animal Factories sought to have him declared a person and petitioned to be appointed Matthew’s trustee.

But the high court upheld a September ruling by a judge in the town of Wiener Neustadt rejecting the petition, the group said Tuesday.

The rights group said it would take the case to the European Court of Human Rights.

Matthew and another chimp at the shelter, Rosi, were captured as babies in Sierra Leone in 1982 and smuggled to Austria for use in pharmaceutical experiments. Customs officers intercepted the shipment and turned the chimps over to the shelter.

Organizers said they may set up a foundation to collect donations for Matthew, whose life expectancy in captivity is about 60 years.

But they argue that only personhood will ensure that he isn’t sold outside Austria.

Started while I wait for my ride home from the Allergist – In honor of it being the tenth –

Ten Things I really like:

1. Road Trips / Walkabouts. (especially with BHK) – It’s always fun to explore and discover new places… or even new things about a place you’ve visited a hundred times before. Additionally, the journey is often more fun than the destination. Grab a bagel, and out for a new adventure!

2. Almost the opposite of #1 – Lounging around the house, not leaving all day long. Having a headquarters full of love, entertainment, food and climate control is pretty dang appealing.

3. Change of seasons – I love, love, love seeing the Yellow-Green Spring change to Dark Green Summer to all of the Autumn colors… only to have the trees go bare and then start again. Snow is fantastic… I see just enough to want more, but not so much that it’s a peril or a nuisance.

4. Rain / Snow / Fog – Precipitation. Rain generally means that things are cooling off, being fed, getting life. (I suspect that video will be fodder for BHK in her “we should get some ducks” argument.) I’ve long preferred traveling in a mist or fog, especially on a hike. I enjoy a traditional “nice day“, too. Let’s just say I like most weather – anything that doesn’t kill me or make me sweat too much is good in my book.

5. monkeys and robots almost equally… Monkeys have a higher spiffy factor due to the biological aspect, I think. Emotion, awe, chaos are all pretty amazing stuff. That said, streamlined new-style and old school aluminum robots alike are pretty keen, even the unfriendly ones that want to destroy we humans for being a fleshy parasite on the surface of the globe.

6. Learning new things – That was really the other third of gaming that I enjoyed quite a lot – along with the social side, and imagination stretching. I love to learn new bits of things, from reading or a live good teacher, preferably. Wiki / Google is a good start, but I’ve found that developing skills from a more interactive knowledge source speeds things along for me. Example – How to make country-style “cat head” (called so based on size and relative shape, not ingredients) biscuits this weekend from Larry.

7. My new family unit. Duh. BHK, Pye and Newt make every day one with elements of love, affection and care. Extended family is also nice – I dig my in-laws quite a bit. Both are people I can learn and grow with in a very positive way.

8. Playing Games. Boardgames, Role playing games, video games… trifles that promote both social and brain activity are something to embrace. I don’t like solitaire games so much… seems to lack something. Even Video games are better if you’re playing them with a human cooperative or competitor-type next to you, or on-line somewhere. Even in those cases, a LAN party in the same room works better for me… however, the upside of on-line play is you can cut connection any time you like, and play in your jammies… (well, you can do that in person, too – depending.) The social aspect has to be with people I enjoy being around… I can’t get into gaming just for gaming’s sake.

9. Kind people. Folks that go out of their way to be respectful and helpful while not being a doormat. I’ve been really blessed to know and have known a huge number of terrific people… more than I suspect is average. Surrounding yourself with good folks is a fun way to learn about being kind yourself. Hanging out with an assortment of geeks, hippies, gamers and just general fans of being nice has helped me to become a better person, I think.

10. Helping others (see #9, above). I really like to do good works. I’m long overdue to donate some blood… one of the easiest acts of charity I can perform. I feel good when I believe that I’ve done something to make someone’s life better. I try to offer a kind word or make at least a simple gesture whenever I can. I get immediate feedback for it, even if the person isn’t grateful… how they react isn’t as big a deal as is the process involved for me.

Happy Birthday, graypumpkin!

BHK picked up Trauma Center, and it’s pretty darn good… the instruction is sparse, so you learn as you go. I didn’t like that aspect initially, but I rather like it now. You can surely tell it’s an imported game. We played it over dinner – I had spicy lentil soup and BHK that the ale & cheese. Yummy, filling, and just right on a cozy evening at home.

I wonder how a place like this works.
Is it something simple, like marking the rooms with colors that match a wristband?

So, it’s August… only a couple of weeks until BHK’s birthday, Father in-laws birthday, and we’re looking to have Emily over in a weekend – and then the all of the Newsoms over perhaps two weeks after that. Emily is about 5 years old now, and she reminds me of little bit of Wendy, way back when 9even though Wendy was maybe twice that age. I still remember acting like a monkey with

[info]graypumpkin

 for her, over a decade ago. Ook ook, extend the upper lip, scratch the noggin and the armpits, do a bowlegged walk… still brings a giggle to the young ladies. I doubt the Wendy would as be amused these days… she’s got to be 21 by now? maybe 22? She’s probably into more “grown-up” pursuits. I wonder how she and Marty are doing?

Thoughts for Emily’s visit.. Baltimore Aquarium, Blink (maybe try Uno?), Walking on the Boardwalk / Beach, Playstation, Fireworks, and the Candy Store. None of those are set in stone and there are other possibilities, too.

Hey, it’s August first! Happy Lughnasadh, the holy day of Lludd!
(If you celebrate it… I don’t generally do so myself, but do like to say the word Lughnasadh. )

To celebrate, here’s an agricultural pic from our garden, taken just this week.

Been busy, have some game and book links, dear journal!

New joystiq review of Icehouse (also Enemy Chocolatier ), and as a result, found a place to play games online in real time.

You’ve got to download a small Java app (gamut ) (though they are working on an HTML implementation), but it’s clean, quick and fun if you can find folks to play with.

Back to reading on my ride in the subway…until I find some tv show that BHK doesn’t want to watch to put on the PSP. just finished Red Nails – getting my pulp fix on. Plenty free and legal to read here. Just scroll down to Howard,( Robert E. )

BHK and I went down to Solomon’s Island to take a little break. We were going to cruise on the Wm. Smith, but it was already chartered for the day. Instead of lamenting our situation, we opted to do a little river-otter watching and some light nature walk behind the marine museum. The otters were extra-bonus cute and playful today; I suspect that they were really digging the warm weather, and that our arrival right at feeding time had something to do with it. They had a tasty meal of fish, carrot and boiled egg, which sounded pretty darn good, actually, so we toddled off to the Captain’s Table for a little nosh, ourselves. Later we hit Target for a few sundry supplies – another deck chair, some bug spray, etc… and then continued to Game Stop to gather up 2 new (used, $12 each) games – Taiko drumming for the PS2, and Lumines for the PSP – Almost got marvel heroes, too, but they were out of stock on the used ones. (Bhk pointed out that they should give a new one, since it was being portrayed as available on the shelf, but I didn’t want to push – I still have Katamari and Lumines to work my way through)

Far too many pictures of otters, and other stuff will be coming in the days a head, I imagine.

Once we got home, we got a pleasant surprise in a new cover for our grill, along with a nice full tank of propane. I expect to be doing some outdoor cookery in the very near future. Veggie Burgers, Kabob, and whatever meat-stuff the rest of the family might like.

Once the sun came down, we went inside and watched Trekkies – I think it was a little enlightening for BHK about fandom, and why I feel about it the way I do, for both good and ill. I think the highlight of the night was the season finale of ugly betty – lots of cliffhangers in true soap style.

Sneakily added by BHK

– Secret confession time:
My favorite thing to do by SCottO B. Ear: I love love love to watch a double feature of Joy Luck Club and Steel Magnolias (Although sometimes I swap Steel Magnolias for Fried Green tomatoes). I always need at least 2 boxes of tissues and a whole can of general foods coffee when I do my double feature. I just snuggle under my comforter wearing my comfiest jammies and my furry pink slippers and cry myself a good one. Then I feel much better.

Oh and another confession this morning I compared my wife to a chimp. I reality I’m the one that tends to fling poo—so i retract any comparison I may have made. I’m a naughty bad husband–but a pretty good simian!

Here are some pictures from today’s sunny morning –

I love the boys… They both have come a long way in making the transition to a family.

A new bionic woman, eh? I have my doubts. Rebuilt both legs, one arm, an ear, and an eye this time around. Plus a deaf daughter and Rudy-type doc as a love interest.

Random Ray Bradbury factoid: Bradbury, despite writing about spaceships and interplanetary travel and having lived in Los Angeles for most of his life, has never driven a car. He attributes this to having seen a gruesome car accident when he was young.

Annapolis !

Had a nice little day out and about, BHK picked up the original SSX (snowboarding) for the PS2 and I got WTF (work time fun) for the PSP. WTF is a very appropriate abbreviation of the game, and I look forward to playing it for quite some time. Swung to Potbelly’s for some sammiches and enjoyed ‘em quite a little bit. The primary objective of our day was the B.I.G. book sale at the old tobacco warehouse – I think that I got more books than BHK this time around. We got there early (after going to bed at about 3am, post-Grindhouse) and the book dealers hadn’t attacked it too roughly yet. I scored a lot of good fill-in Bradbury stuff, and a smattering of Dashiell Hammett and about four of Ian Fleming’s 007 titles. Not found were any of the Harry Dresden books, but I did get the novelized version of the Buckaroo Bonsai movie. Lots of misc from a fundamental magic trick book to Wally Wood / Chas Addams collections of art to a nifty old tome on word origins, as well.

We also saw llamas, and a slug.

I no know what a hors d’oervereere is.
I no even know how to spell it so I eat book not read it.
It have tasty pictures.
I still hungry.
I ate sub.
It good.
It very good.
I folllow wife ’round home goods store and try not show butt to other shoppers.
I accidentally show butt in excitement over flying monkey display.
Wife beat me with stick.
We go home and I fling poo.

Visited Misti, Neil, Daniel & Emily today with the in laws and BHK – it was fun playing belated Santa. Jason’s Deli is rapidly becoming a huge fave.. I wish we had a local salad bar and soup place as yummy. Bonus was that Ukrops had some veggie-only onion soup on hand, and it was pretty dang awesome as well.

I got a chance to play a few games of laser battle (no relation to my old chestnut of laser attack) with Daniel, and it was quite fun.. I’ll probably see what I can do to add it to our games closet.

Also exchanged travel bugs with Misti – I released one due for Brazil, and received one due for Japan, and another headed to Hawaii’i. The Brazil and Japan join BHK’s Louisville, KY one as part of the Unite for Diabetes Challenge. (The Hawaii’i one is just for funzies.)

A little poetry I’ve been composing for a week now:

I’m a doodiehead. I wet the bed. I love baboons so my butt is red.

That was in my lj client this morning. Hmmm… Was it Newt, or Bhk? Neither are owning up to it.

Dindin at the momsters went pretty well, but at about 8:30, I just totally ran out of energy and we bid the folks adieu. Hit the sack after doing some last minute chores… I hardly remember ’em, as I was a zombie.

I want to write something else, but I’m drawing a little bit of a blank. I’m having a wonderful home life lately, and look forward to it continuing for many a moon to come, even if I suffer from a little lj vandalism from cohabitants from time to time. I still have to post some more doodles and piccies. Walkabout or just more outdoor time this weekend!

Happy Birthday, graypumpkin!
monkeybday

I didn’t get to hit ¡Viva Broward! yesterday… I ran out of time. Today, however is a new day… I think I’ll trundle down there for a midday bit of entertainment.

Got a mild interrogation from someone at the pool on the way back from grocery shopping yesterday. I was toting a double armload of groceries, heading to my place; when a guy at the pool area calls over to me.

Guy:”Hey, you!”
Me:”Hi! Can I help you?”
G:”Do you live here?”
M:”Yup!”
G:”Which unit?”
(*note* – at no time did he ask my name, or say anything in a non-interrogatory style. )
M:”323D… can I help you?”
G:”No, I just wanted to know.”
(*note* – Did he think I was a hoodlum of some sort? That I was going to use packages of peanut butter crackers, deodorant, light bulbs, and a half-dozen liters of Diet Doctor Pepper to do some crazy MacGuyver evil on the complex?)
M:”Oh. What unit do you live in?”
G:”304A”
M:”Nice place. Have a good one.”
And I walked away.
He didn’t reply.

Wacky.

I didn’t look shabby or anything… wearing a nice clean Hawaiian style golf shirt, short hair, clean shaved, maybe perspiring a bit, due to toting the barge.

I figure I can look him up in the condo directory later… I’ll get the lowdown from Jesus-bread lady and/or the Condo Superhero sometime today, I’m sure.

Via Jordon –

What would happen if everyone on Earth suddenly vanished without a trace? Although that’s totally impossible, of course, a new article speculates on how long it would take for all traces of today’s human civilization to be reclaimed by the earth’s natural processes.

Moment of Lyric – mp3 (Via X-entertainment’s great halloween jukebox)

In the afterlife
You could be headed for the serious strife
Now you make the scene all day
But tomorrow there’ll be hell to pay

People listen attentively
I mean about future calamity
I used to think the idea was obsolete
Until I heard the old man stamping his feet.

This is a place where eternally
Fire is applied to the body
Teeth are extruded and bones are ground
Then baked into cakes which are passed around.

Beauty, talent, fame, money, refinement
Top skill and brain
But all the things you try to hide
Will be revealed on the other side.

Now the d and the a and the m
And the n and the a
And the t and the i-o-n
Lose your face, lose your name
Then get fitted for a suit of flame

Newton *really* likes the smell of Twizzlers rainbow twists.

All caught up on House, now, psp tv duty is Justice League and Arrested Development. (Thanks, Podtropolis!) – useful for folks with iPods or other portable video gizmos.

If I don’t have your snail-mail address (or, even if you think I do) please email it to me. (to scottobear@gmail.com is fine ) I’m getting warmed up for a snail-mail session.

Film Threat has a 24-minute promo version of the 1997 Justice League of America pilot available for download.

Not too keen on most the recent venture brothers. Scooby parody wasn’t my fave, though Brock’s “tapestry of quiet desperation” was ok, I guess. “We Shut your third GD eye for a reason!”

8565 – Hump-day dump-day, sat on a wall.

I’ve discovered that the bus can have so much background noise that I can’t hear my episodes of House or old time radio (Boston Blackie, or the Naked City, currently) on the ride back home. I don’t notice the excessive sound until I try to listen to something on the cell phone or ear buds.

Not to be too snarky, but I’d like next year to be “talk like a ninja day”, and for everyone to not say *anything* meme related for a day. (Myself included.)
