I hang out with my dog. I like social justice, social media, volunteering, national service, traveling, music, brunch, coffee, tattoos, lolcats, and canasta.
Jason don't think you're ready for this jelly.
Irina's collection is the best, but she's such a jerk! #projectrunway
I thought Carol Hannah's was good too, although I agreed it lacked some cohesion. I never got Althea's stuff at all. - Laura Norvig
DO ANYBODY NO HOW TO FOLD A FITTED SHEET??
I'm sure there's a video showing how to fold it properly. I just fold it in fours and stuff it in the linen closet. - jbrotherlove
I roll it up in a ball and shove it in the back of the closet! - Jason
Just put it back on the bed... No folding required. - Lisa L. Seifert
I know. I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. - Ha3rvey (likes dark meat)
Take Lisa's advice. Just put it back on the bed. - Ha3rvey (likes dark meat)
I have a 'thing' for sheets... so I have a lot of sets I have to rotate out... eventually the fitted ones have to be folded :( I don't believe it's possible. - Jason
I make sure the elastic bits are inside then I fold it like a regular sheet. It does get puffy though. - Anika
I /hate/ fitted sheets. I just throw them in the cedar chest and not worry about folding. :-P - Jason Huebel
I think it's one of those things... once you figured it out - you have reached enlightenment and you don't have to come back to earth anymore to fix everything you did wrong in past lives... Anika, you're almost there! - Jason
When I was doing volunteer work for my church, they taught us a military-style tuck/fold method of using a regular sheet in place of your fitted sheet. I liked that so much better. Added benefit was no fitted sheet nonsense. - Jason Huebel
I used to have to lay the sheet on the floor or bed to fold it. It's only in the last 2 years, that I've been able to fold them standing up and have it the same size as the top sheet when folded. - Anika
have someone else to it - VAL D.
Line up the elasticized edges and fold them in on all sides until you have a rectangular sheet. Then fold it again. - Michelle
Michelle it's not that easy! well for me at least... I don't think I'm as far along on my path to enlightenment as I would like to think ;) - Jason
Ha! I fought them for years and this lady who owned the laundromat I used to go to showed me how to do it. I don't get it perfect every time but it is better ;-) - Michelle
Hate the damn things. Every time I fold one, the end result is a bit different. - Yolanda
Of course Martha knows. - Jason from iPhone
If you put ALL of the fitted sheets on your bed you could just take them off one at a time as needed. Once the laundry hamper set aside only for your fitted sheets is full, you wash, dry and start over. Plus your bed would be really, really comfy and fluffy. - Lisa L. Seifert
PS: I do mine like Martha. I abhor Martha, though. Just sayin'. - Lisa L. Seifert
You could also use all of the unfolded fitted sheets as togas. - Lisa L. Seifert
OMG LISA You are brilliant! All the fitted sheets on the bed. Totally doing that. - Jason
You roll it up. You don't fold them. Didn't your Mother teach you anything? - Kittyburgers
It might help soak up the dog's mess if you put them all on the bed. Just sayin'... :-| - Lisa L. Seifert
Someone on Teh Intarweb told me, and it's worked okay for me: You fit a corner over hand A. Run hand B along the edge to the next corner and then fit that over the first corner. (It'll be inside-out compared to the first corner.) Repeat this until all corners are fitted over your hand, then shake and tug the edges so they line up with each other. It's easier to do than describe. Then you can fold up what you've got left over. - Deborah Fitchett
This is one of those things I learned as a very small child... along with hospital corners. The Martha example is a close approximation of the method I use. The best part: the last step is to beat the sheet down if it doesn't lie flat enuff. This can be a satisfying laundry day release exercise (at least, it always has been for me). Then when storing, place heavier flat sheets on top of... more... - tamaran
I have now missed the last 2 episodes of V and last weeks episode of Glee. Life is getting in the way of my teevee time!
I could rock a jumpsuit!

lawd, geezus... - jbrotherlove
I love how it has a built in hood. Just in case your caught in the rain or something. - Michelle Martinez
Trust me on this. NO man can rock a jumpsuit. Including the guy in the ad. - FF's Bubba of Arizona
With a hood? OH YEAH! - Anika
what year is that?? - VAL D.
Reminds me of that ep of Freaks & Geeks. - Spidra Webster
Okay, it's called "The Corvette." I'm in love. - felicious
I want to see Sparky in a jumpsuit.... - WorldofHiglet
That would be great for Burning Man. - veo
I would so wear this (around the house). Baby blue please :) - Jason from iPhone
the real question is what do you wear with this; boxers or briefs? - jbrotherlove
Nothing! - Jason from iPhone
Oversized sleeping-bag condom. - See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Rocking the Chin Curtain

I have also worn full beard and friendly mutton chops (aka the Lemmy) - Jason
I can't wait until facial hair goes out of style again... I'm with the Classical-era Romans on this one. - Spidra Webster
Spidra, hush your mouth! I hate to shave! Also, beards are hot. p.s. were in the 70's and are today :) - Jason
I can totally understand guys being lazy about shaving. My opinion is purely from the selfish POV of what I like to look at and kiss. (Sorry, I should have noticed it was cross-posted to the Really Gay Room. Admire the hairy manliness at your leisure, gents.) - Spidra Webster
fine, we'll divy them up. You get all the unbearded ones, I the bearded ones :) - Jason
I PWN the chinstrip. - Jeremy (cropmarks)
Trying the Abe Lincoln. Feels weird to have an upper lip again!

Nice neck beard sir - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Win - Mo Kargas
looks good! I didn't know Abe Lincoln wore a nose ring. - Jim Hearts FF
Very little known fact :) - Jason
Hey sexeh! - Derrick
This is the first time I have shaved in awhile... My upper lip is all breezy and cool. - Jason
*offers to keep Jason's upper lip warm* - Sparky
Hello :) - Jason
2010 National Conference on Volunteering and Service: Now Accepting Presenter Proposals. We are now accepting proposals for presenters for immersion learning sessions, workshops and forums at the 2010 National Conference on Volunteering and Service. Please visit www.volunteeringandservice.org for more information and to submit your proposal today!...
I need to volunteer more. - Derrick
Volunteering is fun. I volunteer with the library technology courses - most of them with seniors. For Christmas, I'll be volunteering with Family Services to deliver Christmas hampers - also to seniors. - Nathalie, Dreamer of FF
Do it! www.serve.gov for volunteer opportunities in your area. Also, I would recommend thinking about HOW you volunteer. When I was younger I used to do park clean ups and things like that. Now I tend to do more skilled based volunteering - I sit on the board of a nonprofit and do consulting for nonprofits on areas where I have expertise. - Jason
I was thinking more in line with public libraries here in Los Angeles. I submitted something online but I haven't heard back from them. I should maybe just GO to a library and find out more info there. - Derrick
Also, if anybody has expertise in technology / social media and wants to present at the conferece submit a proposal. I'll be reviewing everything we get in from those categories. There will be 5,000k + nonprofit attendees - so it's good exposure. Also, it's in NEW YORK CITY! - Jason
Derrick, sometimes nonprofits aren't the best at accepting volunteers (i.e. if you submitted something online they should get back to you!), but keep on trying! - Jason
Do the conference cover expenses for presenters? What about honorariums? MPOW has minimal cash to send me places to present. - ♫Geek in the 410♫
Maurice, looking at the presenter agreement/information, it doesn't look like that's the case - looks as if presenters are responsible for costs. Which means I'm unlikely to submit, much as I'd like to. I struggle enough with paying for conferences in librarianship. - ÉllbeeÇee
Unfortunately, no. There is discounted registration fee for presenters though. I have always felt we should offer more to presenters, but not everyone is on board yet. Last year we had Marnie Webb from TechSoup and Holly Ross from NTEN and Laura Norvig from ETR Associates do a really great social media session for us. - Jason
Hey, Jason, I already contacted Holly and she wants to do something again this year so let's talk before the submission deadline. We're thinking a series of hands-on sessions: 1) Listening with RSS Readers 2) Storytelling with blogs 3) Generating Buzz with Twitter 4) Recruiting volunteers and supporters with Facebook. Maybe CCI could do 3 and 4 and Holly and I could do 1 and 2. EDIT:... more... - Laura Norvig
Laura - sounds great let's talk either tomorrow or Monday. - Jason from iPhone
I'm a little emotionally unstable after watching Precious. I had blocked out some of the most brutal parts

Just changed my OK Cupid profile to say - You should message me if You watch Intervention and find it tragic (and funny) but mostly tragic.
I'm not sure of the type of man this may attract. - Jason
Honest people with a little bit of a warped sense of humor. I like it. - Mary Carmen
ok good, phew... was a bit worried :) - Jason
Don't be worried. I think its kinda funny and interesting. Not that my opinion means much..... - Mary Carmen
I used to watch that, but it's just too brutal for me. - Laura Norvig
It is brutal, I cry every episode usually. - Jason from iPhone
On the way to NOLA.
RT @HomerJSimpson I made one of those trace-your-hand turkeys. It tasted horrible.
Packing for New Orleans... woohoo!
@elizabethfury YES! MOAR TACOS!
@elizabethfury CHOCOTACO???
This made me LOL. "Avail: Weak Spot for the Economy" I mean, I knew after 4AM Friday things weren't as great, but to blame them for the weak economy???

p.s. this is only relevant if you were into 90's punk bands from VA :) - Jason
The only way Glee could be any cooler is if @mrskimyadawson was on! #kimyaonglee
Why does the dog have to puke on my bed instead of hers :(
I just watched all of Misery on TV before realizing I was watching the Weather Channel. When did the Weather Channel start showing movies?
And is Misery a 'Weather Channel' movie, because of the snowstorm I guess? I think they should show Twister. - Jason
Somebody just told me they also show A Perfect Storm. - Jason from iPhone
@nikki_d lol, I was kinda half paying attention and online... but now that I think about it, all the commercials were weather updates!
@nikki_d also, I wish you still lived across the street. I want some canned soup :)
@polianarchy laughable in parts.
