Dang it dolls, irony, and outside

First, something cool:

Dang-it Dolls

A grandma sends cloth dolls to soldiers designed specifically for them to be able to take their aggression out on an inanimate object. These dolls get the snot knocked out of them.

Second, something hilarious:

The US is criticizing another country for their lousy cyclone response. That is the pot calling the kettle black and I hope they realize the irony of what they're saying and blush furiously for it.

It's cold today. The kids have gone to the park twice. I have a small sand dune by the back door. -sigh- Stimulus package will likely buy me a shop vac.
