Suggestions for Lovers

Just what are you suggesting?

Since there’s no worded suggestion, one must assume that it’s the illustration that is meant to impart some guidance. What I’m getting out of it is that you should take your lover to a quiet spot in the moonlight, stick out your tongue, and see what happens.

Hand-delivered

This card didn’t go through the postal system and appears to have been hand-delivered to Great-Grandpa Phil, presumably by some young lass who was making her intentions clear. Looks like Phil had a happy Valentine’s Day; I hope you do the same.

Gmail Snowflake Comic

A couple of flakes from Gmail

I’m not sure how I missed the fact that Gmail was sending out free holiday postcards last month, but they were. Oh, well, since I didn’t send one, at least I received one — plus, you can click on the link and download both the hi-res images of their cards, and PDF files that you can cut out into a postcard shape and mail yourself!

Texan Philosophies

Never slap a man who's chewin' tobacco

It seems to me that this top ten list of Texan philosophies doubles perfectly well as a list of New Year’s resolutions — except, perhaps, for #6, which I would say is more aphorism than resolution. Nevertheless, you’d be wise to follow these instructions, which come courtesy of Moriah at Tokyo Love Letters. Arigato gozaimasu and Happy New Year!

You Know You’re From Texas

...if you don't know the difference between "your" and "you're".

The Language Police managed to let this one get all the way to production with the phrase “you know your from Texas” uncorrected. Oh well, what can you do? As Christ said, if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out — but instead I think I’ll just let this one pass.

I can’t help but notice that these qualifications aren’t unique to Texans; I’ve met a number of people here in Georgia named Bubba. Some of them even hold public office.
