We took Doris for Zoo Lights, but I think El Dubb had the most fun! Here are a few pics to prove it.(that's a real reindeer - her name is Noel)
It's true.
BTW, I found out this zoo has a snow leopard on the premises!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RuPaul's Drag Race will be back for a second season in February. Plus, any excuse to post a picture of RuPalin is OK by me.

Hey Santa. Check it out
From the fine folks at Hammacher Schlemmer comes the only botanical air purifier. This is the kind of crap you see in a SkyMall catalogue, like a bigger-than-life-size Peanuts nativity scene with Woodstock in for the baby Jesus (I made a link here so you can see I did not make that up) or a water fountain for your cat. You know what I mean. But I must admit, I'm intrigued. I can grow herbs and purify the air at the same time.

Hero
I love this kid. He decided (at ten years old) that he won't say the pledge of allegiance until there is really is "liberty and justice" for all, including gays and lesbians. And he lives in Arkansas, not Boston or DC.
There may be hope for us yet.
And BTW, "Gaywad?" I had no idea kids still used that epithet.

Ming Tsai cooking at a fundraiser for the Asian Task Force Against Domestic Violence at the new Mandarin Oriental Hotel on Boylston.
He made delicious shrimp treats with some sort of amazing reduction drizzled over-top.
I bid on a night at the symphony during the silent auction. Good times.
Edited to add: I won the night at the symphony for four. It's December 5th. I think Jim's parents will be here. If that's the case, we'll have a blast...plus, they'll think we're really sophisticated.

New Orleans, here we come!
Here we sit in Medford, all packed and waiting to go to New Orleans. I plan to do a lot of nothing-in-particular, like drinking coffee, seeing bands and eating amazing food. Our flight leaves at 6AM tomorrow and we get into NOLA at 10:40. Thank goodness for a brother who has a job that allows us a free place to stay in the best town in the US (by my estimation, anyway).
Come back here often in the next four days for a ridiculous pictorial diary of our tip.
Hooray, vacation!

Argh... it's talk like a pirate day, mateys!
My pirate name is:
Captain Mary Kidd
Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and planning make you a fine, reliable pirate. Arr!

It's official
I feel like I'm really a Masshole at this point. Between Senator Kennedy's send-off and the town hall meeting in Somerville with Senator Kerry, I think I've earned my full-out Masshole cred. In retrospect, it looks like BKDM's first-ever Boston Steamer post from two years ago was prescient.
I can be everyone's favorite Masshole now, I guess.

Dinner?
The sounds of the barking seals at dusk, and the pirate flag whipping in the wind, give this place an ominous feeling
