A cardinal just attacked the window.
Who won?
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Coffee makes people more receptive to argument,
Lord knows that lack of coffee makes me less receptive to pretty much anything.

Well, I think it is menacing its reflection. Both bird and window are still intact.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hee!
A former top aide to George W. Bush tells U.S. News and World Report that the president was visibly angered by Stephen Colbert's performance at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner Saturday night. "I've been there before, and I can see that he is [angry]," the former aide says. "He's got that look that he's ready to blow."

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Leviticus 11:20-23 20 "All the winged insects that go upon all fours are an abomination to you. 21Yet among the winged insects that go on all fours you may eat those which have legs above their feet, with which to leap on earth. 22 Of them you may eat: the locust according to its kind, the cricket according to its kind, and the grasshopper according to its kind. 23 But all other winged insects which have four feet are an abomination to you. (RSV)
1. Should the first line be "all winged insects that go upon all sixes"? Or is Levi making a nice huge exception for every single winged insect I can think of, which all have six legs.
2. Is it just me, or is the style of this particular section a little bit like Epstein's Mother?

A cardinal just attacked the window.
Huh. A crow just attacked a window at my office about 10 minutes ago. I hope things aren't going all Hitchcockian.

Any Chicagoistas about? I'm meant to shove some boxes in my car and drive to Chicago in a few hours (argh), and I know there's construction on the Dan Ryan.

From one of tommyrot's Colbert links:
In fact, some aides crowed over reports that the president easily bested Colbert in the reviews of both comedy acts.
Yeah, uh -- I don't think *comedy* was Colbert's top goal.
