Hi honey! I recently noticed several different types of honey on my grocer

Curious, George: Any fellow primates freelancing in the design/programming industry? If so, does anyone have any experience with the site Elance? Are there any other similar bid-for-work sites that you prefer/have had good experiences with?
Writer Feels That Accusations Against Prez Be a Felony Check out the picture of (the author) Kaye Grogan. It truly is priceless.

Click Mazes is a collection of interactive mazes and puzzles to get your grey matter working. My favourites included the plank puzzles and the collection of tilt puzzles.
It ain't over 'til the fat lady eats. Ever wondered why the biggest opera singers are big in other ways? It's not just a coincidence. They have to work extra hard to push out those notes. Then there's the issue of extra tissue around their throats.
When John Kerry made his latest campaign stop at a church on Sunday , the reverend there heaped praise on the senator, calling him "the next president of the United States." Kerry, a Catholic, was attending that Sunday service in a Methodist church. It's no secret that Catholic leaders aren't happy with Kerry, but even if he was in good standing with them, politicians are barred from making campaign stops in Catholic churches. Catholic leaders are also forbidden from issuing anything even close to an endorsement of any politician unless they want to invite trouble from the IRS. Why the double standard? more inside

Cheap Truth. "Cyberpunk's one-page propaganda organ, Cheap Truth, was given away free to anyone who asked for it. Cheap Truth was never copyrighted; photocopy 'piracy' was actively encouraged. Cheap Truth deliberately mocked established [SF gurus] and urged every soul within earshot to boot up a word-processor and join the cause." more inside

Monkey Love. Just a congratulations to our own Kimberly and Jim_T.
Curious George Sorry, I might be going to the well a bit too much here (my second post of the day) but I need a bit more help. I asked a few days ago for suggestions for music to cut to a video of children eating and have found that I have a lot of stuff of them washing their hands before the meal. Does anyone have ideas for washing hands/washing up songs appropriate for a video of kids produced for their parents? As before, they don't need to be originally recorded for children, just kid friendly. BTW, I chose “Everybody Eats When They Come to My House” by Cab Calloway for the eating portion of the video. Cute as hell.

Whew. 729 MoFi entries so far (compared to MeFi's 1033) more inside
8th Grade Web Projects I remember having to do instructional presentations, but in my day we did it with posters, none of this fancy HTML stuff. Some of them are pretty funny. I especially like how you can see the junior high student stereotypes, like the Teacher's Pet, and the slacker. There's also the sarcastic goth, and of course the pot heads
What makes you happy?

Ten Years. Ten years have passed since Mr. Cobain did same. Links from somefilter because I didn't want to look up others. A "where were you?" A "what did you like?" A mosquito. A denial.
Haus Wittgenstein. Ludwig Wittgenstein [Wikipedia], philosopher, before his return to philosophy after working as a schoolteacher and a gardener, built his sister a Haus, which you can look at.
