On the Clear Channel morning zoo today someone joked that they should shower Captain Kangaroo's casket with ping pong balls. Even though I'm a child of the seventies I don't remember CK much. Now I have linked him in my mind to Krusty the Clown, persona-wise. Is that semi-accurate or am I way off? ::

I have started a new weblog about crafts at dioramarama.com/kmel. I have yet to add any, uhh, visual interest to it, but please visit if you're into that sort of thing. ::

My dad was in a car accident this weekend. He's OK, which is lucky because he was rear-ended while at a stop (because of another accident) by someone going full speed on a California freeway. His face hit the steering wheel and was pretty messed up, but somehow no bones were broken. He's posting pictures of his recovery on his website, here (warning: totally gross). He's got such a wacky sense of humor. Go dad! ::
