A bit warm. And links.

Hm! Thought it felt a little warm. Currently 100ºF, 24% humidity, 14mph wind. Got in to work a bit late, worked in a ceiling, had lunch, worked in another ceiling. On the way home, briefly checked out the Latin Festival on the City Walk, which was nowhere near as large, well-attended, or entertaining as last weekend's multicultural extravaganza.

Mark Morford, you are a god among men. Who needs Valentine's Day when there's Lupercalia to be had?
Hot pagan sex and lustful gods and ancient wolf goddesses and potential marriage and more sex and more than a little crazed giddy divine animal blood sacrifice.

And of course, let us not forget the St. Valentine's Day Massacre. Nobody like Al Capone to liven up a holiday. ;)

But still, there's Brak & Zorak - We Like Girls. (1.2MB mp3, courtesy michaelduff) :D

*snrk!*
From lanikei: Super Squirrel!

From cheshirrrecat: "We're Virginia," Marshall declared. "We are all conservative assholes like me accept one kind of marriage and only one kind." Maybe he's using the royal we. :P Info about this BS, proposed legislation, a call to action, and her letter to Sen. Allen here.
