A reason to love fandom
http://www.whyy.org/91FM/voices.html
At Voices in the Family, my local NPR station's psychology show, there's an hour-long serious discussion about the difficulties of male/female friendships.

What?

The set-up for this discussion of reality is long enough that I can't find a stand-alone funny quote, but I LOLed several times, and I think it would be entertaining for anyone who's tried to understand something or to explain it.
On the serious side, I think the definition of reality is reasonable.
See also PKDick's "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."

The CafePress shop is started!
It's at Input Junkie.
One more niggling question: InputJunkie or Input_Junkie for the url?
Just one slogan so far: "We prefer to be called Buccaneer-Americans.
Currently in the queue: "I'm a child, not an idiot" (cafepress has infant and child-sized clothing), "Do not hug from behind!" (something that works much better as a t-shirt than a button), and "Coffee-based life-form" (in a day or two, when my extra-large pen points arrive in the mail-- everything's being lettered at actual size).
I may have solved an annoyance about the site: t-shirt images are too small to make most slogans easily readable on the computer screen, but if I offer a framed tile, that gives a nice big image.
