Today I was a little under the weather. I didn't get much done and my brain didn't work so great. Oh well.

Funny Blog Entry of the Day - Am Adult - (I got introduced to this funny blog via Boyfriend Doesn't Have Ebola. Probably. *UPDATED* with its more-useful-than-the-official-ones chart of pain levels, but decided my blog entry of the day should be more recent.)

"Sometimes I feel like Boyfriend and I are retarded cavemen. All of our friends are going about their lives as normal, well-adjusted adults who cook their meals and live in clean, well-decorated houses, while Boyfriend and I are sitting on the floor eating beans out of a can with spoons we made out of tinfoil because we can't find any of our real spoons."

Serious Blog Entry of the Day - Developing the Heroic Imagination: The 5 Traits of Heroes - This is here for my psychology loving readers. Read about Zimbardo again, mixed up with superhero comics, and see, in the comments, a link to a very serious TED talk (going into the doings at Abu Ghraib) by Zimbardo himself (I learned that he didn't stop his prison experiment until someone else pointed out to him that he should).

"While we now think of the Man of Steel battling super villains like Lex Luthor and Bizarro, when Superman was introduced in 1938, he was a champion of the little guy, ... concerned with the execution of innocent people, corrupt legislation, and even wife-beating."
