I finally got my bumpersticker

but it's thundering, so I think I'll wait till later to put it on the car.

I smiled today

at a car in my apartment complex. It had a rainbow sticker, a 'Mothman Search Team' bumper sticker, and 'WWMD?' (What would Mothman do?) :) Somebody, presumably gay or gay-friendly, has a sense of humour.

Here's a nifty little resource for sci fi geeks (and others who just like it)

100+ Amazing Science Fiction Stickers To Put On Your Laptop

There are the normal Star Trek, Star Wars, and comics-related stickers, but also Cthulhu, Harry Potter, even a 'Merlotte's Bar and Grill' for Sookie Stackhouse fans. There are even some Steampunk ones. I particularly like Edvard Munch's 'Scream' with a Cthulhu head. :)

Thanks Jedi Librarian for the link.

By the way, I read somewhere (sorry, didn't save the link), that a 'Battlestar Galactica' movie is in the works and, dum, dum, dum, it's not based on the new series at all but is by the original creator, Gary Larson, and will be more in style of the old series. Yay! I never watched the new series (didn't have cable while it was on). I might rent the DVDs at the library at some point. But I loved the old series as a kid.

Okay, geek rant finished.

On closeout over at Northern Sun

Listening to: 'Everyone's a Hero' from Dr Horrible's Sing-along Blog

T-shirts I like for only $7--

'Lord, please let me be the person my psychiatrist medicates me to be.'

'I love my country...But I think we should start seeing other people'

I love Northern Sun (of course I would, liberal that I am). Where else can you get a rainbow sarong for Pride? And I came across a nice quote from Helen Keller looking through their catalogue: 'It is a terrible thing to see and yet have no vision.'

I think the best (non-closeout) bumpersticker I saw, though was 'Don't Pray in My School and I Won't Think in Your Church'.

I am being thwarted

Some weeks back, when the car was out of commission, I received a free Obama bumpersticker from MoveOn.org. I cannot for the life of me find it. No doubt it will turn up after the election. So I thought I'd get one from the Fayette Democrats, our local group. I've tried twice now, and they've been out. Yesterday I called and they had them, but it was raining and I wanted to put it right on the car so I wouldn't lose another one, and by today they were out again. They only get them in batches of 500, apparently. They're like gold. The nice lady did give me their phone number and asked me to call next week and have them hold one for me, since I've tried several times. So hopefully next week I'll have one (and maybe by then I can actually make a small donation to at least cover their costs). If all else fails, I may just have to order one from his website. They're just $3 and have a removable adhesive so they won't take paint off your car. My favourite is the one pictured here.
