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

You just stunned it.

Natter threads stun easily.

(Now I'm wondering if I've made that joke before....)

Matt, it's taking a few minutes to upload but I'm sending "Love Is Like Oxygen" and "Fox on the Run" to Buffistarawk should you have the urge to own them.

Much obliged, I'd love to have the first one on my computer. Er, how do I access Buffistarawk, exactly?

Aw, the Scola niece appreciates pink cowboy boots like some other people I know. And that's a super awesome horsie. When I was little, my bestest friend (who is now a pediatric dentist, how odd) had one similar but uglier colors and we used to fight over it. When we weren't playing with his star wars collection.

That kid? Has a good uncle.

Kat, wanna do all my christmas cards and mailings from now until eternity? (plz note: I've never done them. I'm a slacker. I have a PILE of Catalina postcards to send and are they going out before the new year? Nope.)

Been feeling crappy since I got back from grocery shopping. Should go to bed, but now it isn't appealing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, have gotten a significant amount of work done, which is good. I'm also watching an old New York Undercover, with Chris Webber and Taye Diggs AND Ashford and Simpson. Word.

Jesse's in tv heaven.

Sunday's foxtrot has the tree I'd have if I had a tree. Which I probably won't and mom said she won't give me the silver cat rattle my Aunt Carol gave me for my first christmas until I have a tree! NO FAIR! It's the most awesome silver cat ever. Very art deco-y, slightly evil looking. I love that damned rattle.

Honestly, I can't really picture me doing the holiday thing until I'm no longer doing it for other people, because for me, it is tied to those other people exclusively. And, y'know, I really don't want to think about my parents being gone, so I won't. But no awesome silver cat! Bah.

Three contestants have spoken of their disbelief after being fooled into thinking they went into space for the UK reality show Space Cadets.

The three believed they had blasted off from a cosmonaut training camp in Russia, but were in fact in a fake spaceship in a warehouse in Suffolk.

They cheered up when told they had each won £25,000 ($44,300).

But one contestant, teaching assistant Keri Hasset from Birmingham, said she was "heartbroken" by the prank.

"When I thought we were coming back to Earth I was planning my speech. I was going to say it had been my childhood dream. Now I'm a little bit heartbroken," she said.

Ms Hasset, plasterer Paul French, 26 from Bristol, and footballer/recruitment consultant Billy Jackson, 25, from Kent, had suspicions they were being tricked when they had to hold a ceremony for a celebrity Russian dog called Mr Bimby on the spaceship.

I still think it was kind of a nasty trick.

But at leasat Mr Bimby got something out of it....
