DS, a martial arts nerd athlete from way back, is sad about David Carradine’s death.

That hasn’t stopped him from sending me emails with the funny names of Thai officials investigating the Carradine case. E.g.:

Worapong Chewprecha

Pornthip Rojanasunand

Nanthana Sirisap

I watched Revolutionary Road last night.
I’m going to need to get Kate’s entire wardrobe. Thanks.
And her figure.

In ancient Rome, when a man testified in court he would swear on his testicles.

Sorry, not true. The “testes” root in “testify” is a false cognate.

“Testify” really comes from the Latin “testes,” meaning “witness.” The Latin word for “balls” is “colei.”

Two not fun things I get to do this morning

  1. Drive downtown at rush hour.
  2. Go to a consulate. I have never had a good experience at a consulate. I don’t care that this is the Canadian consulate, somehow there is going to be some kind of clusterfuck & I willhave to drive downtown again at rush hour.
