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 [...]
Dear Logan International Airport: You Suck. Love, SB
Posted in Travelodus on March 31, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Here are three reasons that Logan International Airport (that’s in Boston, folks) is one of the worst, ever, in the world:
1.) If your flight is canceled and you want to eat, you have to LEAVE the gate area for the main section of the terminal, which means that you have to go through security again [...]
Trip to Madrid: Communist bars, graffiti, and witnessing a stabbing.

I went to Madrid, and it was fantastic. The traveling was awful, but that is another post for another day.
I went to a communist bar that served a variety of flavorful daiquiris. I spent most of my time in this bar plotting the opening of a competitor bar… maybe a Socialist lounge… across [...]

Saturday night:
Mr. Uggs and I decide to enjoy a nice evening together, that includes grabbing some dinner at the local cafe, metro-ing down to the theater to see Be Kind Rewind, and potentially grabbing a drink.
As we’re sitting in the cafe, I realize we’ve let time slip a bit, and that we need to leave [...]

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:
Finger-like flowers.
The glowing orb is actually a highly reflective red pinecone, not a radioactive dinosaur egg, as [...]

I love maps. I love them aesthetically, I love them functionally, but I really love when a map brings a whole new context to the size/location of the area.
This map is pretty fascinating, because it maps the Gross Domestic Product of all the 50 states, and titles them with a country that has the same/similar [...]
