Was tapped to give an overview of some of the projects I’ve been working on during today’s all employee meeting. I declined to use the standard corporate PowerPoint template. Please enjoy my title slide.

A screencap of a PowerPoint slide. Most of the slide is taken up by a black and white image from Hitchcock’s The Birds (1963) feat. a well-dressed blond woman and two young girls running away from a swarm of attacking black birds. Icons representing various computer programs and web apps have been superimposed over the birds.

GIRL 1: Why are there so many of them!!!
GIRL 2: Help!! Where’s the information that I need???
WOMAN: Just keep running, children!

…they maybe SHOULD stop you, but what are they going to do against your origami Godzilla army?

Two more origami Godzillas! One has a dark blue body and spikes made from a print of “The Great Wave”. The other has a red-orange body with dark blue spikes.

Three origami Godzillas having a conference about something. One is purple with a flower-printed dorsal fin. One is the green one from a previous image. And one is pink with a flowery dorsal fin… and GOOGLY EYES. In the background, an origami crane looks on.

Did you know that you can just fold an origami Godzilla? Nobody can stop you from doing this.

A photo of an origami Godzilla. The origami paper is printed with an image of Hokusai’s “The Great Wave”. It’s my first attempt so it’s not great but it’s definitely Godzilla-shaped.

A second origami Godzilla. The print on this one is another Hokusai, orange flower petals on a dark blue background.

A third origami Godzilla. This one has a plain green body, but its spikes are folded from paper with, you guessed it, another Hokusai print, yellow background with pink flowers. I only had one set of origami paper at this point.

Mom and I are in Eastern Oregon for a mini vacation this weekend! It was snowing when we drove in and we barely unpacked before running out and getting in the hot tub, so as far as I’m concerned this trip is already a complete success. Also there were some bangin’ clouds on the drive out.

This made me go “huh!” so I looked it up and it turns out that it’s both the tales AND the women who may or may not be married.

In this context, the word wife means "woman" rather than "married woman". This usage stems from Old English wif ("woman") and is akin to the German Weib (also meaning "woman"). This sense of the word is still used in Modern English in constructions such as midwife and fishwife.
Old wives' tales are often invoked to discourage certain behaviours, usually of children, or to share knowledge of folk cures for ailments ranging from toothaches to dysentery.
