If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

"Upon the officers arriving, the subject disrobed," the spokeswoman said. "He then punches out a train window. And at that point, an officer fires pepper spray that had no effect."

Thornton tried to kick a police sergeant, who then shot him with a stun gun, again to no effect, police said.

Uh-oh. Sounds like you've got a demon problem....

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

Heh.

Chicago needs a slayer....

What is even happening?

ita, are you around?

Do you have any druthers about linking to provocateuse? I'm not going to post a photo, but I would like to do an t a href link in my livejournal to one of your pages (handson.provocateuse.com/show/kiefer_sutherland) Does that hurt your bandwidth, or something, or otherwise go against your preferences?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Gronklies!

God bless aspirin and caffeine, is all I have to say about this AM.

Oh, and also bless not having to work. That would have just been the cherry on the Sundae of discontent.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The guy punched out the window of the train? Good lord.

I burned the top of my mouth on my breakfast -- toast with melted cheese. My life is hard.

A Dog Man Gets a Cat

I never liked cats much. Then Mother moved into my barn.

I found this story moving - we always had a bunch of barn cats (that were not allowed in the house). I always loved them, and felt bad that they often had short lives due to accidents with cows, cars, farm machinery, etc....

Before Mother, I was never much drawn to cats. They seemed slithery and remote. I have a farm, and cats didn't appear to be useful.

I am partial to working dogs—especially border collies and Labradors—that can herd sheep, fetch sticks, hike with me, cuddle on the sofa, and swim in nearby streams. I didn't really get having an animal you couldn't herd sheep or take a walk with.

Then the rats came.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Cindy, linking to the page is a-okay.

Cheese is god--you need to treat it with respect, but the rewards are great.

Also, cheese can sense fear.
