Dude, I am blinvisible to tommyrot.
No way, dude! There was an x-posty-poo.
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
No, Jesse. My friend's daughter contracted it from a relatively mild scratch, at least, she certainly wasn't attacked.
Oh, that's creepier, then. Damn cats! Why do we bring wild animals into the house, anyway?!??!

Eeek, flea -- the kind of reference case they don't tell you about in library school, I bet.

What is even happening?
Don't make me break out the domestication conversation all afresh, when the first run hasn't quite tapered off.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
so, a building collapsed on 100 & Bway? anyone know of this?
That's three blocks from me and I heard neither sirens nor booms. Dallas and I shall take a stroll over and investigate.

Ha! The fact that it's frowning makes my day. Electricity is grouchy!
I love that!
There are some weird heavy construction trucks around here that are tall enough to expose big spinny grindy axle (power take-off) bits underneath, and those have the best warning signs. Poor little silhouette guy getting twisted and chewed up by the axle.

There's now a picture of the collapsed building on the front page of the NY Times website: [link]

In other news, one of the BIG disasvantages of my adorable chamring daughter is the fact that I have had "Elmo's song" in my head for DAYS. I shelve books singing, "La la la, La la la, Elmo's song..."
One of the little-known hazards of parenting. I limit Annabel's PBS to Sesame Street and Between the Lions just because the earworms are a tad less obnoxious than with Teletubbies, Barney, etc.

That's awesome. My dad got falling-rock signs that involved a car with a smushed roof for the road up to the observatory. They kept getting stolen, though.

There's a warning sticker on our overhead cabinets in our cubicles warning about the door on it. The stick figure guy is supposed to look like he's being hit int he head by a falling door, but looks like he's being impaled with a pole.
