Hello, oolyps.
» I'm hoping you can help me. I have a big problem with procrastination. Somehow, I managed to get myself through graduate school, but since I graduated about a year ago, I have spent a lot of time with my proverbial digits up my proverbial derrière. Each day, I think about doing a wide variety of things, and each day, I put them off. I do spend a lot of time on the internet and watching TV, which I know is a waste of time. I am productive at work, but it's the home situation that's really the problem. In the meantime, I continue to get fat and lazy and frustrated with myself. What should I do to break the spell of procrastination on my life? Thanks in advance for your insight. Sincerely, Lethargy in Oly

Obviously unless the dots are connected and conclusions drawn then insults don't really count.

I was there specifically to get better shots of this and this. So I was standing outside with my camera pointed at the wall, snapping shot after shot, because in photography, quality is born directly from quantity. All of a sudden I look over my shoulder and there's a rather shaggy looking llama staring at my subject, looking curious but somewhat confused about what I'm doing.
» "Hi," I say. But he just chews his cud. Do llamas chew cud? I wonder. Is this llama a figment of my imagination? Does that cud give it away? I turn back around and go back to endlessly snapping. There's no llama behind me, I assure myself. There's no llama at all. But as I adjust the exposure length to try and increase the contrast on my photo, I notice the sound of chewing growing ever louder behind me. It's maddening, really. This is ridiculous! I turn around! What I find is not a llama, but a three foot tall man with a lip ring and shaggy hair, chewing sunflower seeds and smoking a pipe. He blows three perfect smoke rings towards the sun and looks at me with a knowing smile. "Reach into my mouth," he says, as though he can hardly hold back his laughter, "and pinch my tongue." I just stare.
