Well, I was trying to stay awake until 10 so as not to seem so pathetic (to myself), but I can't do it.
G'night all. Be all entertaining and stuff so as to amuse me while I drink my coffee and read the overnight posts in about 8 hours.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So defeatist, Jesse! They could very well be airing out of order.
Well, I'll keep taping it, but I bet "mine" was a test run, even though they told me it wasn't.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Scientists tout new discoveries from Titanic
FALMOUTH, Mass. - The discovery of two large pieces of the Titanic’s hull on the ocean floor indicates that the fabled luxury liner sank faster than previously thought, researchers said Monday.
The hull pieces were a crucial part of the ship’s structure and make up a bottom section of the vessel that was missing when the wreck was first located in 1985, the researchers said.
Kind of an "eh" story. Except the end of the article cracked me up:
Explorer Robert Ballard found the bulk of the wreck in 1985, at a depth of 13,000 feet and about 380 miles southeast of Newfoundland. Ballard was not impressed with the expedition’s find.
“They found a fragment, big deal,” he said. “Am I surprised? No. When you go down there, there’s stuff all over the place. It hit an iceberg and it sank. Get over it.”

Don't feel too guilty, bon. It did make the Catalog of Cool. (on the left)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Tommy, I think you'd like some of these. Ask Santa.
Jesse, Aimée swears she saw you on an LA billboard, so there's that.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I do swear!

The world needs an animal that's like a fox crossed with a cat, doesn't it? Why not throw in some spider, a bit of rabbit and a hint of crow?

From the link:
do not allow them to snap together with their full force or they may chip, break, and possibly send small pieces of metal flying on impact. Our larger magnets can easily bruise fingers and even break finger bones as they attempt to connect together. Always wear protective eyewear or safety goggles when handling the magnets.
So strong, they can hurt you - cool!
I wonder what would happen if you throw a bunch of these at a car?

I totally want those, but I'm way too careless to have something like that around.
