I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

I'm still contemplating this.... is this a breed I'm not aware of? Or kittens with carefully crafted fur? Or worse?!?

It's almost lunch and I've accomplished one thing.

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

Aren't they kittens that never grow up? I mean, kittens that stay kitten-sized?

Actually, in my drean the kittens were mouse-sized, and kept in mouse cages. There were at least 20, mostly black and tabbies, and the cages were labeled with their names.

New Zealand officially goes insane:

New Zealand's high school students will be able to use "text-speak" -- the mobile phone text message language beloved of teenagers -- in national exams this year, officials said.

New Zealand's Qualifications Authority said Friday that it still strongly discourages students from using anything other than full English, but that credit will be given if the answer "clearly shows the required understanding," even if it contains text-speak.
