Sophistacat: Two-oh-double hockey sticks
http://sophistacat.blogspot.com/2011/01/two-oh-double-hockey-sticks.html
If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Saturday, January 1, 2011. There’s something cathartic about taking down the old calendar – overflowing with schedules, appointments, grocery lists, reminders and other scribbles – and putting up a new, blank one. The months stretch away, unfilled. There are no demands on our time yet, no urgent appointments circled in red, no bill due dates highlighted in yellow. The days are empty of everything but promise. Happy New Year, y’all. Labels: Slice of Life.

http://sophistacat.blogspot.com/2012/01/yo-ho-how-entertainment-industry-forced.html
If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Saturday, January 28, 2012. How the Entertainment Industry Forced Me into a Life of Piracy. Is half-over already. Oh well, I’ll catch it online later.”. A day or three later, I open the laptop and browse over to CBS’s site. Oh look…they have full episodes for almost every show available for viewing online. Notice that I said “almost” every show? Yeah…they only have short clips of The Mentalist. The show is about a girl who discovers she is a succubus, and is i...

Sophistacat: December 2011
http://sophistacat.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Tuesday, December 13, 2011. The following is a summation of the types of Help Wanted ads I've been seeing. It's hard out here for a cat. Copywriter needed for large ad agency. Must have agency experience. (Repeat for every agency ad.). Technical writer wanted for local CMS provider. We’re not actually going to hire anyone; our CTO just wants to display a stack of résumés on his desk when our current writer comes in to ask for a raise. Our software enables Web ...

If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Tuesday, August 10, 2010. I turned on my MP3 player the other day and asked it to Shuffle the playlist. The first nine songs it returned were:. Hell - Squirrel Nut Zippers. Devils and Angels - Toby Lightman. Christian Woman - Type O Negative. Devil Woman - Cliff Richard. Kyrie - Mr. Mister. Son of a Preacher Man - Dusty Springfield. If You Wanna get to Heaven - Ozark Mountain Daredevils. Sympathy for the Devil - The Rolling Stones. That can't be random.

Sophistacat: In Defense of Starship
http://sophistacat.blogspot.com/2011/10/in-defense-of-starship.html
If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Monday, October 10, 2011. In Defense of Starship. Recently released a list of the ten worst hits of the 80s, and, once again, “We Built this City” took the top spot. Not because it’s the best song ever – it’s a fluffy little Pop tune, c’mon – but because it’s just another rehash of a 2004 list that defunct Blender. Magazine threw together with no real criteria. It basically amounted to an editor asking folks “What songs annoy you? When I could find them). ...

Sophistacat: Prep School
http://sophistacat.blogspot.com/2011/09/prep-school.html
If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Wednesday, September 21, 2011. Well hello, world; long time no blog. I wish I could say I’ve been ignoring you because I’ve been doing all kinds of fantastically cool stuff, but that’d be a lie. If I had been doing all kinds of fantastically cool stuff, the blog wouldn’t have lay (laid? Fuck it) fallow lo these many months. I am, however, doing some moderately neat stuff, so may as well share. Once I had these identified, I listed the supplies I would want for...

http://sophistacat.blogspot.com/2010/10/techno-halloweenie_31.html
If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Sunday, October 31, 2010. Carved the punkins for the litter today. Despite my complete lack of dexterity with the knife (no opposable thumbs, remember), they turned out okay:. And here is our forward-thinking, environmentally-concious, high-tech, high-output, 21st-century, multi-hyphenated lighting system:. Labels: Slice of Life. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Sophistacat: Give them a Hand
http://sophistacat.blogspot.com/2010/10/give-them-hand.html
If Life hands you lemmings, make lemmingade. Friday, October 22, 2010. Give them a Hand. You never take me dancing," Mrs. Cat says. Who would you like to permanently alienate by asking them to watch the litter for a few hours? Good point. Hmmm.we could dance here.". We look around at the swath of assorted kitty gear lurking on the floor, and envision crushed toys, twisted ankles, and broken furniture. "No," we say in unison. I have an idea," I offer.
