Tuesday, this and that
Rosa Parks died yesterday. I wish I could find a copy of Sarah Vowell's essay on Rosa Parks (from her book The Partly Cloudy Patriot), but I can't find one online.
I don't know why something is pissing me off so much, but it is. In a recent locked post, one of my flisters mentioned that her hairdresser said she was "too old" for the hairstyle she wanted. OK, one, what the fuck is "too old" for a hairstyle? And two, what kind of lame ass, self important, sorry excuse for a Service Professional lays down her personal judgement on something that a Paying Customer requests? Just because you're a (oooh la fucking la) Stylist doesn't mean you have to be a Asshole, asshole.

kansas_dave posted the website to Drinking Liberally. I've never heard of it, but apparently we have a Lawrence chapter. Boozy Democrats, unite!
rougewench mentioned it on her LJ, and I'll add my voice: Lawrence folks, do try to support Ruichi Indian Restaurant. I went there for lunch a few days ago and really, I thought their food was better than India Palace (near blasphemy, I know). But seriously, the different foods were spiced more, and differently. It didn't taste like the same spices were just used in varying amounts across the different dishes. It seemed less Americanized. And wow, their halwa? *Snarf* EDIT: Ruichi has, for the time being, a dinner buffet as well as the lunch buffet!
Hm. I see I'm mostly content-free again, today. Damn.
