In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

My Favorite Martian Photos 

I don't know whether Mars has water or not, but we certainly do. It has been pouring down pissing down rain for three days. This is bone-chilling barely over freezing rain. This is slit your wrists rain. This is grim reaper rain. This is Pacific Northwest gonna crush your spirit, stomp all over it, then force you to look deep into your dark soul rain. This is I'm gonna watch stupid movies and eat chocolate all day rain. This is Big MF Rain.

Obviously I could use a little...sunshine. Either that or massive doses of thorazine.

Mario has the Nasa astronomy page as his home page. Today they had an extraordinary photo of Mars. The European Space Agency has some cool photos, too.

Not a drop of rain on Mars in sight as far as I can tell. Not that I am technically complaining about the rain here. When it's this cold, it means the rain is snow in the mountains, and that's where we get our water. So snow in the mountains is a good thing for the ecosystem...Blah, blah, blah. Get me some drugs.

Kidding, really. I'll put up my antennae and disappear for a spell.
