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

Hmmm... I should buy that Bowie video set. I've only seen the video for "Ashes to Ashes" once too.

Does it have any of his really old stuff? Like "The Laughing Gnome" or that mime thing?

Nothing that far back. But they do have really great clips of him on TV doing "Space Oddity" and such. It's an excellent collection. The video he did for "Jean Genie" is him and Cyrinda Foxe bopping around in San Francisco in 1972.

Ooh, it's available in the Borders in downtown Evanston, and also the one in my neighborhood. I'll have to pick it up to add to my holiday weekend fun....

Does it have him and Bing singing "Little Drummer Boy"? I could have sworn that was from a TV special.

So I'm bored enough that I'm watching the Panda Cam. And I see the panda. But I can't figure out which end is up. Seriously, it's like a panda blob. Maybe better known as a blanda.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I just got done flding 40 brazillion t-shirts.

OH! I used the term "brazillion" to a customer at the Saturday job. He spent 10 mintes expaining to me that the correct term was "bazillion", how many zeros it has, and where in the "illions" scale it came. He just didn't get it when I told him, "It's a made up quantity."
