Running a Worldcon filk track - Oreouk
http://oreouk.livejournal.com/246245.html
Running a Worldcon filk track - Oreouk. August 31st, 2014. Running a Worldcon filk track. This is a set of notes in no particular order which were collated by me (Lissa Allcock, should anyone be stumbling on this and not know) as a result of working on Loncon3's filk track in 2014. I'm not kidding about the 'no particular order' bit - this is just as the memories struck me. People with big sets may like to have rehearsal time because they come together from far apart and don't have time before the con...

http://allisona.livejournal.com/536138.html
Feb 14th, 2014. Each year in February our staff has a gift card lottery. We each throw a ten dollar gift card in a hat and hope for the best! For two weeks two teachers a day are picked and taken out of the running. The last three teachers standing split the gift cards- 9 for first, 7 for second and 5 for third. I won! And here's my haul of gift cards! 6 comments Leave a comment. Feb 15th, 2014 01:24 am (UTC). You'll have such a wonderful time with these. Feb 16th, 2014 01:03 am (UTC). What a nice idea!

RIP Cuddles - Mike's Ramblings...
http://fleetfootmike.livejournal.com/336377.html
RIP Cuddles - Mikes Ramblings. September 2nd, 2014. Anne had Cuddles put to sleep today. When we got back from holiday, she wasnt right - clearly not been eating or drinking much (despite the neighbours being in every day to check on our cats) - and a test yesterday revealed that her kidneys were (to quote my lovely wife) rubbish. Despite that, she was a remarkably good mouser. I have many memories of waking up at 3am to loud cries of mowwwfff! September 2nd, 2014 05:44 pm (UTC). So sorry to hear of your...

Song: Fanthem - Alan
http://patoadam.livejournal.com/30835.html
Song: Fanthem - Alan. Nov 15th, 2008. Completed Oct. 24, 2008. Placed in the public domain. I took the melody for the verses, with some minor changes, from the Discovery Channel commercial " I Love the World. The melody used in that commercial apparently was taken, in turn, from the traditional song "I Love the Daffodils". The melody for the choruses is mine, AFAIK. Naah, the chord progression is too repetitive." It wasn't until someone else pointed out ILtW that I decided to write this song. November 15...

Why we love the Affordable Care Act - Alan
http://patoadam.livejournal.com/43312.html
Why we love the Affordable Care Act - Alan. Sep 30th, 2013. Why we love the Affordable Care Act. The year my wife Alta had ovarian cancer, we paid $72,000 in health care expenses. That's the sum of our insurance premiums and the medical expenses that our insurance didn't pay for. We felt lucky and grateful to have insurance. Without it, we would have owed more than $250,000. I'll post an update after I have found out how much we will save by getting insurance through the ACA. This was diagnosed at a much...

Walking barefoot in the rain. - jelas. 08:01 pm August 12th, 2010. Walking barefoot in the rain. Is not what it used to be. At least not in a city. In a city it is icky, sticky, prickly and sort of yuck. Still beats blisters. Unless there is gravel. Or Leave a comment. August 13th, 2010 07:03 am (UTC). I think it used to be like that in a city in the good old days, too. At least my mother always said so - I just didn't notice! Thread started by Shannachie. August 13th, 2010 10:35 am (UTC).

Why we love the Affordable Care Act - Alan. Mar 30th, 2014. Why we love the Affordable Care Act. We love the Affordable Care Act. Thanks to Obamacare, we will spend $21,621.60 less for health insurance this year, and we have vastly better coverage. Why were our insurance premiums so high in 2013? In 2013, our per-person out-of-pocket maximum was $25,000. This year, it is $6,350. In 2013, we paid more than $25,000 in medical expenses that were not covered by insurance. So far this year, we hav...We are te...

Religious Tolerance Day - Alan
http://patoadam.livejournal.com/37649.html
Religious Tolerance Day - Alan. Sep 11th, 2010. Recently, I told a friend of mine that I have trouble understanding the Bible. Different denominations interpret it in radically different ways. Different translations say different things. I don't trust any particular religious authority to tell me what the Bible means. Why is one religious authority more likely to be right than any other? In seeking inspiration for what to say here, I re-read an inspiring speech by Harold Feld. If there's a God, your purp...
