Today's word in the TWENTY/TWENTY meme is "clocks."
Tonight I crossed a major milestone that left me with a vague sense of light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully by the end of the week my life will return to semi-normalcy. Until the next time. Which is pretty much what the past two weeks of my life have been about. Time. Mostly the lack of it as I struggle to have a life and still get all my work done.
Which brings us back to clocks. The first clock that comes to mind is, of course, Big Ben!
But I kind of fell in love with the Astronomical Clock in Prague...
Isn't she beautiful?
In other news, I am bitterly disappointed that Lindsay Lohan got away with a mere 90 days in jail and 90 days in rehab... and even more disappointed that she'll probably only serve a fraction of that time. I was really hoping for the death penalty, which is what you'd have thought she got when you see her reaction...
BUT WHAT ABOUT MY COCAINE?!?? ©2010 by Getty Images
I am sick and fucking tired of wealthy idiots and worthless whores continuously flaunting their many violations of the law and getting away with it. These morons live without consequence, which is grossly unfair to the public at large. I cannot fathom why society puts up with this bullshit and doesn't demand that the law apply equally to everybody.
Which is to say that I am horribly jealous I'm not one of these privileged persons.
Maybe one day...

I thought that Big Ben technically is the name of the bell in the tower and not the clock itself.
It is but, as the Wikipedia article I linked to mentions, the name is often extended to both the clock and the tower. I double-checked. 🙂
I gotta get new glasses. When this came up in my reader I thought it was going to be about Beck and Limbaugh.
I see now the title reads “cLocks.”
I DO COCAAAAAAAAIIINNNNNNE!
As always, I love the pictures!
Um, except the weepy Lindsey. Bye bye, clueless.
That caption under the Lohan picture almost made me spit out my tea. Thanks Dave. 😉
What didn’t make the news is that due to “special health issues” the court is allowing Lindsay Lohan access throughout her sentence to her personal physician, Dr. Rockzo.
well fuck me, that astronomical clock in prague is gorgeous! sadly, i had never heard of it before. thanks for the enlightenment!
p.s. did you see the photos where ms. lohan had “fuck u” written on her middle finger on her one hand? every time she held her hands up to her face it was quite visible. bitch.
Good effin’ lord, what did she expect would happen? She was “sentenced” to going to alcohol classes but then couldn’t be arsed to actually go. Er, hi, not really optional.
Dumb as a wall. And not really looking much better than one. Wow, that pic is scary.
It must be nice to just throw away money on fines and occasionally serve a tiny sentence with privelages. If only it worked that way for everybody it would be a mad,mad world indeed.
Yeah we call the whole thing Big Ben, just like the Union flag is called the Union Jack, when technically it should only be called that when flown on the jack pole.
