Sweet! Now we just need to make tiny bottles of Jack Daniels so they can all get drunk and kill each other in crashes.

Sorry Cindy, I jumped to the end of the thread to post it as soon as I read it, and must have missed your link while scrolling down the page.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

From your very own link, tommyrot:

their tendency to hiss when they are upset lets him know if it's time to give one a break from playing Dale Earnhardt.

Heh. The new model doesn't "blow up as much". Progress!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've checked it out a few times for Buffy and Angel stuff - it's a cool site. Sadly, it'll be gone in two weeks.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Also, do Madagascan hissing cockroaches really hiss? What does it sound like? Is it loud?

They do indeed, unusual for an insect. They expel air through holes along their abdomens to create the sound. It's used as competitive behaviour between males during mating season, the louder roach is going to be the bigger and stronger too. More energy efficient than actually throwing down. They also hiss when feeling threatened, which would certainly be rather startling if you weren't expecting it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is there any known method to get my kid to talk about things other than baseball, from time to time?

Teach him to type and he can IM with me.

I can do that too. Well, from near the abdomen, anyway. Doesn't seem to help with the mating, though.

I'll heal eventually. Hopefully. *sniff*

Today could be themed "It's not me, it's YOU."

And I'm the one saying it. And they aren't believing it.

Oh thank god. My Chinese food has arrived! For about an hour there, I was convinced that I would go mad from hunger and gnaw the limbs from hapless coworkers wandering into my reach.
