Help put Toronto onto the new Monopoly board!



Only 18 days left to vote Toronto onto the new Monopoly board! If you're on Facebook, you can join the group devoted to this effort. Here are the instructions, from the Facebook page:

"1. Go to: http://www.monopolyworldvote.com/en_CA/world
2. Register by clicking "Log In" then "Create your log in now". (You only need to Log In when you return tomorrow).
3. Add Toronto to your favorite cities by clicking "Add to My Cities."
4. Add any other favorite cities of yours. (Although, at this point you may want to vote strategically). ;)
5. Click "Vote"
6. Enter the Number code that is hard to read.
7. Go back tomorrow, rinse & repeat (until Feb 29th).
8. Very Important: Don't forget to validate your registration by following the link Monopoly send you in the mail. Otherwise your vote will not count!
9. Optional: Post this facebook group on your homepage to remind people to join and/or vote.""

More on Babylon Five



Rather than bore non-B5 types and also for fear of spoilers, I've decided to post any B5-related remarks in my Babylon Five Virgin blog instead of in Blatherings. No guarantees on the frequency of posts. You can subscribe to the RSS feed or to the LJ feed (thanks to Joseph Abbott) if you'd like to find out when I've made updates. So far, I've posted up to Season 1, Episode 4.

Cartoon of the Day:



Thanks to Rob Wynne and Shane McEwan for pointing me to this XKCD comic, which was clearly made for ME. :-D

Chocolate of the Day:



Green Tea Hershey's, yum


Thanks to netcrimes for the green tea Hershey's bar! It's fantastic. By the way, do check out J.A.'s Net Crimes and Misdemeanors site to find out how to outmaneuver web spammers, stalkers and con artists, plus more about J.A.'s book on the topic.





I'm gradually revamping my Art By Debbie Cafepress Store, by the way. I'll be putting more of my cartoons on art on greeting cards and other Stuff over time, including filk-related greeting cards. At least I've cleaned up the layout a bit for now.
