If I were financially solvent right now, I'd donate to WIkipedia, just for this Shaken, Not Stirred entry alone. I wouldn't base a scholarly thesis on it, nor would I use it as my sole source in a journalistic piece, but it entertains and informs.

I found the Ian Fleming postage in my huge stamp stash last week. I love James Bond movies. All of them. But, I've only read one James Bond novel, and I don't even remember which one. I just remember that I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as the movies.

Vellum paper is wicked fussy. The glue shows through, and the scan just makes it look all the more obvious. It isn't that obvious on the actual card. Eventually I'll find an adhesive for vellum that doesn't show through, and stands up to the mail system.

I wove strips of a butter carton into the front of a box of microwave popcorn (Orville Redenbacker Natural Lime and Salt ... very good!) and used NefFlix Origami for the heart. I've had that link in my bookmarks forever and finally get to use it. I am the Queen of Bookmarks.

I love Netflix. Greg is the Queue Master and I never peek to see what is coming next. It is always a surprise and always something great. We just watched Network, a movie both of us have wanted to see for ages. Loved it.

This is going to the Missive Maven. Her blog is one of my favorites and I'm always thrilled when I open my RSS feed and see that she has a new post. She is also my fountain pen guru.
