Good news: Katrina is now down to a high category 4 -- 155mph.
Unfortunately, with the current situation, a fact like this sounds like it should be coming out of the mouth of Prof. Farnsworth.
You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Your tag here.
20th is a subsidiary of News Corp. The information you're looking for is probably here, if anywhere... assuming they report down to the per-show level.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Thanks all. Due to me being me, I have newscorp bookmarked. Those reports tend to have info on licensing the show out, but not on merchandise.
Part of market analysis for book sales.
I'm selling a book. Yep. I sure am.
No matter how many times I say it, it seems all very unreal.
My dad read it. He said, "I was telling someone at work, that's my daughter, she's funny and sarcastic and she explains things real good."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I found the annual report for Newscorp (also a PDF) newscorp.com/Report2004/2004_annual_report.pdf
Okay so I'm slow.

Oh, that's an awesome post to skip to.
I was poking my head to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Jen K's birthday. Also, not on the Calendar, but my sieve managed not to let it fall through the holes, today is also meara's birthday. Happy birthday, Jen! Happy birthday, meara! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year.
Also, of course, lots of thoughts and hopes and wishes-for-the-best for NOLA.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Happy Birthday, Jen and meara!

Happy birthday, meara and Jen! We are entering Virgo season, where the birthdays come hot and fast here.
First day of school. I worry that my pencils aren't sharpened enough and I have forgotten my milk money.
Here's our birthday girl from yesterday: [link]

Oh, flea, that smile! She looks like almost-a-kid, but not fully quite, if I make any sense. And she's lovely.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Jen! meara! Casper! (I knew the lattermost was yesterday, but I was too busy with my day of painful servitude to a 26' U-Haul to pop in.)

Happy Birthday meara! And Happy Birthday Jen, even if she's not around any more.
