The “dirty girl” now has clean archives. As with anything, once it’s cleaned up it can go out in public, so I’m allowing them out now. Check them out via the menu bar on top. The posts I transferred from blogger a year ago are still a mess, but in the meantime I can rest knowing my archives are clean.
Archives are similar to teeth. If they are not clean they should be.

Raising my hand once again, I have to ask…
Could Slate not find woman to write about the Bloodless Revolution ( the abolition of menstruation)?
Pills can liberate you from old burdens. They can also impose new ones. I’m glad women are free to take Lybrel. I hope, in the future, they’ll also feel free not to.
Please don’t lose sleep over it. I’m more concerned at a man writing this than I am about whether a women should suppress their periods. I somehow doubt a bunch of men are sitting around slurping their beer discussing whether their girlfriends will use this drug to “please them” or to “please themselves”, or how they “really don’t care” but really do want their girlfriends to use the pills for the “right reason”.
Don’t worry you’re pretty little head.
We can handle this dude. Really.

I spent the day at the NCAA semi-final lacrosse championship in Baltimore. I’m scorched and dehydrated. I swear it was a hundred degrees at Ravens Stadium. Cornell lost to Duke of all teams, so as my friend goes to Cornell I won’t have to go back Monday. Thank You Jesus.
We hit up the Harbor afterwards. It was too crowded, but nice nevertheless. I’m happy to say no one I was with could afford crabs, so I didn’t have to sit through the long journey into crab eating hell. Serious crab eating mania is a common condition here, and it can literally last all night.

Clinton, Obama and Dodd , Richardson, Edwards and Dodd vote no.
Is this called playing to the primaries? I don’t know. I wish I did. I lied, I do know but far be it for me to state the obvious.

Enjoy this holiday weekend. Remember this holiday commemorates U.S. men and women who have died in military service to their country. Let us hope there will not be many more of them.

In keeping with today’s theme, I suggest “Dirty Girl” by The Eels. You can hear it on my fine tune playlist to the right, if ya search.
Glad my plugin was able to provide you with some clean archives but it is ok to still be a dirty girl :)
Thanks for the mention and use of SRG Clean Archives.
I am impressed at the cleanliness of your archives.
Looks good.
You won’t catch me involved in discussing “the bloodless revolution”. I do know woman can handle this one.
I’m going to the Monday championships, and unlike you I hope to eat crabs.
You’re one of those clean dirty girls. Or are you?
I guess we’ll never know.
Happy Memorial Day. I hope the same as you.
Sean: As much as I am a dirty girl I shall remain so. Thanks for your lovely work.
casey: You can have the crabs, you are probably one of those people for which crab eating is like an orgasm. They just make people in this state that way I guess. Have fun though, with the crabs and at the game. I hope it’s a little cooler for you.
As for me being a “clean dirty girl”.…if there is a god.….….…
I like that expand — collapse action. Come to think of it you have never had archives have you? Nice.
I agree on the Slate article, but give the guy a break. I was sitting at a sports bar just the other night when I happened to hear a conversation between three guys about that exact same thing.
And if you believe that, I have some swamp land I like to call vacation property — — — — — — -
Do it clean, dirty girl.
Enjoy.
Hey cooper… glad you’re keeping it real (and dirty) :)
You are welcome for the plugin. I actually have a newer version which isn’t publicly ready yet which allows the admin to turn on or off the collapsing feature from the admin but still use the caching function.
I figured it was better to wait a few days before I release it so more people can test out the latest release and give me feedback.
Keep up your dirty work girl. I’m now subscribed :)
OMG — thank you so much for the hot tip on this plugin. It’s really great and I’m installing it soon!
Thanks for resisting the temptation to state the obvious. Can we elect you something? I call ye not unclean.
You can make posting about archives interesting.
The archives look great cooper I’m impressed. I’m glad you’re no longer a dirty girl.
Slate article written by a man with nothing else to do that afternoon.
We remember Memorial Day. Happy weekend, stay out of the direct sun.
John: Not for some time, they took up too much room and were ugly. I’d consider self hosting the Darfur blog if we didn’t have to start all over again regarding links…just for the archives.
Sean: I just saw that. I ‘ll play with it later today when I return from various celebratory events. Yes I must front page you as well.
Lee: It’s kick– ass isn’t it?
Welcome.
Doug: Your welcome. You may call me anything you want of course.
Jacob: Happy Weekend to you too Jacob. Do not get hit by too many golf balls.
Was wondering where your archives were
You know I live for clean teeth, but clean archives? Took me long enough to proof all the posts I had written before Google’s spell check.
No, have to pretend that I never saw that. Am going away to write, not to clean archives, though.…
No comment on the candidates playing to the primaries. Too little, too late
Did you go with Dane or Raj?
The Slate article on Lybrel was just another guy thinking his two cents needed.
The archives are very nice. One could get lost in them now.
Pia: The archives simply took up too much room but this plug-in takes care of that problem.
The truth is the older posts are a mess so I really shouldn’t show them but I don’t think I’m ever going ot get to them.
Too little way too late.
Kait: Raj, Dane was graduating only originally had the dates mixed up, he was too busy planning his trip to think about it.
The candidates are playing to the primates?!? Oh, that was primaries. Sorry. My bad.
If they had had arkhives in Noah’s day, he could have grown one and not had to worry about building it in his driveway and getting his neighbors all upset with him.
I had not heard about this Lybrel business. I don’t know the basis for it, and I’m not going to look it up now, but it has to be doing some pretty heavy messing with physiology, and that bugs me on principle. I suppose the logical equivalent is sperm suppression pills. While we’re at it, why don’t we just all sign up to be Cylons?
I didn’t read the Slate article until this morning
but for many others, menstrual discomfort is more psychological. At a conference four years ago, researchers presented evidence that women’s interest in menstrual suppression correlated more strongly with their attitudes toward menstruation than with their symptom
I don’t want to, but I have to take that article and rip it to shreds. It reads like a parody.
I loved my period. All twelve days of it – for about four years, and the rest was at least a week
Cooper why do you always have things that make think or angry or both?
Just read the Slate article.
“We can handle this dude. Really.” Right on Cooper.
Hope you enjoyed your last pre-employment weekend.
Not stating the obvious makes a sharper point.
Nice acrchives. I like them.
Only an orgasm can be an orgasm. Crabs are… well, crabs.
Periods are, well… yet another reason to be glad to be a male. But a necessity if we are to continue as a species. Do amoeba’s have periods? Probably not… so, thank goodness for periods. Just as long as I don’t have to deal with pms, cramps or menopause.
