Please notice that the top of the bag says “Feliz 2005.”  These chips possibly were in fact from 2005.  We picked them up at a gas station on our way back south toward the end of the trip.  As Mr. MiddleChild put it: “Worse than dog food.”  More on Mozambique to come…

Jessica Alba, her empty dead eyes and her Louis Vuitton muzzle remind you to vote (or die).
I just remembered to request my absentee (aka fake) ballot before leaving – if you, too, are cheating and still voting in your home state where it actually counts instead of in, say, a non-state, get your absentee ballot, [...]

In a little less than a month, Mr. MiddleChild and I are going on a little trip to visit my friend who is a Peace Corps Volunteer. This involves 31 hours of travel, including a transatlantic flight on the airline that almost stopped serving food on international flights and filed for Chapter 11 yesterday [...]

Christmas in the Park

The last few days have been really busy for the OurPrerogative team, so I thought I would post a few pictures from a December trip to the bay area to liven the blog up a bit. We’ll get the blog up to speed again soon, but in the meantime….
While visiting family, I went to an [...]

Otherworldly plants

During a brief pre-Thanksgiving visit to St. Louis, MinkStole, the newest member of the OurPrerogative family, and myself went to the botanical gardens in St. Louis. Here are a few pictures taken in the heart of the Climatron:
