Hola Hec! This, I vote this. I'm the only one in our family who's main concern is "hummm, if I turn on the microwave am I gonna blow the fuse?" The kids are all "YAY BOAT!" At least it has 3 staterooms so the kids get thier own rooms (plus 3 bathrooms but they are tiny, tiny, tiny.)

But that's okay because you'll always have a generator and big extension cords laying around, just like Jimmy Cooper on The OC !

Heh. HST wanted his ashes shot from a mortar, just like Sarah Vowell's dad. (Who I presume is not yet of the deceased variety).

HA! Hahahaha It's funny 'cause it's true!

If they really wanted to try population control, they wouldn't have gone after the tiger at all.

There's a new book out contending that predation played a much larger role in human evolution than has been acknowledged--that many of our distinctly human characteristics evolved first to deal with predators and then were used for other purposes. The book argues that schalrs have neglected these effects because we don't have any consistent predators any more.

Tigers are part of the argument. It seems that the British kept careful records of tiger attacks in India and during the 19th century and average of eight people a day were killed by tigers there. Our place at the top of the food chain is recent.

The whole world* just got super annoying.

I hate it when that happens.

• except for us of course

Uh oh. I killed the thread.

I can be cheerful... Really....

No. Your hate killed the thread.

In cheerier news, a cute guy stuck his tongue out at me today.

Right coasties are watching Lost or other stuff.

Your hate killed the thread.

Hate leads to suffering.
