At least 2 and maybe 3 choppers have been circling our neighborhood for half an hour. I turned on the news to see if it was nuclear war or a fugitive or something, but no, someone got hit and killed by a train, and it's news choppers. Note that it's DARK so there's nothing to see, and also, who wants to see that? Stupid news.

Maybe the lacrosse players have gone on another rampage?
Miss Congeniality (aka Muppet) woke me up at 5:30, as she does not believe in the existence of Daylight Savings Time and instead goes by Feline Time, which is always one hour ahead.

Actually, my first thought was someone burned down the lacrosse team house (which is two blocks from mine.)
They are still going. Good grief, go look at some traffic!
Muppet is clearly on Baby Time.

Muppet just tried to lead me downstairs again, in the hopes of getting some better food, but I was too wily for her.

I have an election question for anyone who might still live in Michigan. Last night I saw a commercial which was against Proposal #2 (I think) which seemed to be about changing a law to allow hunters to shoot DOVES. WTF? Can anyone shed light on why people would want/need to shoot doves?

How much eating can there be on a dove?

Wasn't that "ants"?
It was definitely ants. It was a reference to the movie "Them," about giant ants created by radiation. I think it's the only time Jericho has made me laugh.
Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone. I was taken out for dinner and beer Tuesday night and last night. Tonight I'm going to a concert. This weekend may be devoted to recovering from my birthday.
eta: You shoot doves with a shotgun using birdshot. They're cooked like quail.

What is even happening?
How much eating can there be on a dove?
People eat squab, which is pretty much the same thing. I think dove might even be Kosher.
