I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think ozzie may have actually gotten hurt in the freakout, since he won't let me near him yet, and is still spitting mad.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Robot fish at the London Aquarium:

Biologically inspired by the common carp, the new designs can avoid objects and swim around a specially designed tank entirely of their own accord.

This new kind of cyber-fish took three years to develop, by a team of scientists from Essex University.

Future generations may be used for seabed explorations, detection of leaks in oil pipelines, or even as spies.

Although robotic fish have been investigated for the last 10 years or so, the creators of the new models claim theirs are the smartest yet.

Think how it'll feel if someone puts robot fish in a bowl near it.

Oh dear. You should buy that cat some valium or something.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Petri didn't like the cat stacking audio, but he'd just go into the other room. Any other sound from the computer (including PBJ time) wouldn't get much more than a look from him.

I hope poor, crazy Ozzie is okay.

Well now I'm tempted.

I have a little wind up dolphin and a penguin that are meant to be bath toys. How deep of a water bowl do you have?

I think he will be. I'm just letting him be for now.

I think Perkins the cat may have helped the crazy along on this one, since sometimes he likes to attack ozzie when ozzie is growling.

eta: That could be fun, Aurelia.
