“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F. Kennedy - - - - - - - - - - - - “Imagine finding someone you love more than anything in the world, who you would risk your life for but couldn’t marry. And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Movies To Watch: Monsters University

I thought this promo to Monsters University was darn adorable.  It plays out like a familiar university recruitment commercial, monsters included.

The latest movie is a sequel to the blockbuster hit, Monsters, Inc., out this summer.  I can't believe it's been 12 years since the first movie was released.

Monster's University - In theaters June 21, 2013.

Rube Goldberg Monster Trap

How ironic that every month this year I've posted a Rube Goldberg video.  Not that I mean to, but if I come across one I'll blog about it.  I've always wanted to try making one, and these videos are inching me that much closer.

For those who have no idea what a Rube Goldberg is, it is a machine or contraption that is put together in a complex fashion, and usually causes a chain reaction of events that continue until it reaches it's final destination, thereby completing a task.  In this particular case, the capture of a monster!

Meet 7 yr old Audri Clemmons.  His hypothesis states that his Rube Goldberg will fail "upteenth, billion" times, but he manages to do it in 4 attempts.  Way to go Audri.

Take a look at my previous posts:
