I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Next time you have insomnia, watch the owls that live a couple of blocks from me. They're kind of boring (but cute, sleeping standing up and all) right now, but I assume they are more interesting at night. Unfortunastely, I didn't find out about tyhis cam until after the owlets had left the nest.

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

Displays the callerID when your cellphone gets a call, and allows you to send calls to voicemail if you don't want to answer.

Ugly as hell, though.

I don't wear a watch or a cell phone. But the minute they come up with a Dick Tracy watch? I'm so there.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

When I go to screenings where they're likely to be confiscating camera phones, I always make sure to leave a few tampons loose in my purse so the security guys don't dig too deep. Works like a dream most of the time.

I'm thinking a big empty VagisilTM box could be used to conceal almost anything of sufficiently small size without worry.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Remember when he was only this big?

See, in my mind, he's still only that big.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I still think Emmett is Darth Tigger!

Any City Garden fans here?

One of the Homeowners that participated in the HGTV version ( Urban Outsiders ) has blogged their experience. The episode that features his garden is airing next week.

This is wrong and a bad idea, but I laughed anyway: [link] (video)

As a practical joke, they dug a big hole in the middle of a jogging/bike path, filled it with water and covered it with leaves to hide it - then recorded the results.

Same here.

Of course, I have the same problem with Princess Tickybox. "Wait, you're not old enough to be a biped yet! Stop that!"
