Slog - Comments on It's Very. Dramatic. http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/04/its_very_dramatic You've no doubt seen this already because the Internet is a race and you won. But I hadn't see this until a friend decided I needed cheering up and introduced me to Brenda Dickson last week. This one got me through the weekend... More video of Brenda Dickson—video you've already seen, of course, because the Internet is a race and you won—here....

Not much confidence in your blog!

Clearly, I don't have a good look.

Bill (@ #2) is really fast on the internet. How did he get so fast? He sees things other people will only see in the future. But what's great about Bill is that he comes back to the distant past to let us slow people know that he's seen it.
I know that he's already read this comment. I almost feel that he's reading it before I write it.
I wonder what will happen next in Bill's internet travels. What will he see that might take me weeks to see? Oh how much better that video must have been when Bill saw it!
I love you fast Bill!

I did not write that because I've seen the videos (I haven't, even after this post) or because I wanted to brag that I've seen them or because I'm fast on the Internet.

Again: I wrote that because of what Dan wrote.

I mean, on the one hand you don't have to worry about politics, or human suffering, or anything other than looking good. On the other hand, looking good apparently takes a huge investment of time and energy (if not actual thought).

An eye liner is was traditionally a liquid or paste which is applied with a brush. An eye pencil is a pencil used for lining. It gives a softer, smudge-able line and is easier to apply, and easier to mask mistakes, but only a real liner can give a perfectly, dark, black line. More and more often, people tend to refer to pencils as liners, which I suppose is technically okay, since they are used to line. So, all pencils are liners but not all liners are pencils.

This has been your daily lesson from a drag queen.
