When Facebook Apps Go Bad

TcT — Thu, 14 May 2009 16:09:48 +0000

Was quite disconcerted to see this “enticement” this morning. You’d think that since FB knows we’re married (after all I did receive an announcement from FB that I was, in fact, married to Sherry, and if FB says it’s so, it must be so!) they’d possibly avoid pairing us up in such ads. Unless, of course, they were trying to drive more traffic should such an ad lead to a “complicated” relationship status. But big, nasty, faceless corporations wouldn’t be interested in manipulating little, ol’ me to use more of their product, even if the use was because of damage done to myself. No. They wouldn’t. I’m sure.

In any case, I’m no more inclined to take the silly quiz after seeing this ad. Though, I’m not above taking silly quizzes in general.

2009 Monty Python Party

TcT — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 17:33:14 +0000

Last night we held the 6th (or 5th) Irregular Annual Monty Python party. The first party was held in 1995 at the Fry house. Since then we have had parties at the Toccoa house, the Chicago apartment, and the Tiffin house. All parties include coconuts, House Rules, costumes, and assorted hilarities. This year marked our third Spam sculpting event although there were no prizes this year due to the economic downturn and harried schedules. We crammed about 25 folk into the house, and a great time was had.
