Back from work ...
Sep. 23rd, 2003 09:18 pmToday I wore a T-shirt to work that said, "Sometimes I just want to put on a bunny costume and scream." And yet no one took it as a cry for help. Interesting.
I've got to admit, though, after all the bitching, moaning, whining, and snarking I do here, is anybody else as surprised as I am that I have a pleasant fucking "phone voice"? (Okay, have taken a second look at that last sentence, and the first person to mention 1-900 numbers gets trouted upside the head.) I've also noticed that the later it gets, the more I start to sound like a phone-sex operator. It's not like I intend it or anything, but it's got to be really confusing to the guy at the other end of the line -- you're working late, you're tired, you're hungry, you just want to go home, and all of a sudden this woman calls and asks you in a sexy voice if someone's picked up your package today.
Oh, and did you hear? There's a toxic flame retardant in breast milk. See?! That's why babies aren't flammable. I've always wondered.

He tested different baby-blanket materials to see which was the most flame-retardant, wrapping stuffed baby dolls with the blankets and setting them on fire, then taking pictures.
His display board featured the great title "Burning Babies?" and showcased the charred remnants of the dolls, stapled around the edges of the board as a trim.
