'Never Leave Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I sleep with a pillow on my head, to keep the light out, and when my kitty sleeps on the pillow on my head, it keeps the pillow from shifting, and the evil, sleep-stealing light out.
I think your cat is trying to smother you in your sleep in order to eat your spleen for breakfast. It's literally pushing a pillow onto your face and quite efficiently taking a nap at the same time. You have to admire the combination of laziness and lethality.
I do think it's very likely the cause-and-effect direction is the opposite of "cats promote an unhealthy lifestyle." I don't think the elderly are going to get much benefit from being dragged around and falling while taking Marmaduke-style dogs on walks.
In non-depressing vein, I started the Atkins diet today and then found out that I must have gotten an even more crack-addled version of it several years ago, as grapefruit/grapefruit juice is mentioned nowhere as a vital component of the official plan. This means that I can both:
(1) opt out of starting my mornings with an 8 oz. glass of Satan's fruit juice, and
(2) eat a few of the 8 blood oranges in my fridge over the next couple of weeks (since a cup of citrus juice every day didn't curtail the diet''s weight loss effects when I've tried it previously).
I *love* grapefuit. But of course everyone doesn't.
I'm statistically less likely to die of hanta virus because the presence of cat keeps the vermin away.

My kitties are smart enough to realize that if I die, the Huge Human Shaped Electric Blanket loses its power.
Besides...spleen? Liver is MUCH tastier. And mine might taste like lime and vodka!

Yeah, because cats are renowned for their long term strategizing.

Now see, you're just encouraging them. Don't be surprised to find they've dragged a wok onto your head pillow tonight, and filled it with cat litter and shoes.
Haven't had a chance to watch this yet...
Sundance 2007: Short Blasts: Sesame Street Is Gay
No sex, no on-screen violence, and only the suggestion of illicit drugs, yet Bertram and Ernest (Sundance 2002) landed itself in the age-restricted area at YouTube. Why? Queer Muppets. Middle America's just not ready for them. The film's a bit talky, but has some great little touches, like the Spartacus poster in the background. I also love that its sponsored by the letter Y. You'll see.
Oh no! HDTV is ruining porn!
High-definition video is embarrassing porn stars. Problems: razor burn, cellulite, wrinkles, pimples, visible veins, fake boobs. Remedies tried so far: diets, exercise, makeup, tanning spray, grooming assistance, cosmetic surgery, softening lights, changing sex positions, and airbrushing. Directors' attitude: HD is cool. Actresses' complaints: 1) The men in the industry are "willing to sacrifice our vanity and imperfections to beat each other" to HD. 2) "I'm having my breasts redone because of HD."
Apparently Isaiah Washington just fired his publicist. Yeah, because that's where the problem lies.
Almost-but-not-quite-went-extinct hairless dogs!
LIMA, Peru - His eyes gleaming with joy underneath a natural yellow mohawk, Josh the Peruvian Hairless Dog heads out to greet tourists at Lima’s Pucllana ruins.
About the size of an English pointer, Josh and his kin are not guard dogs, instead they are guarded behind the walls of this and other historic monuments on the Peruvian coast — the hairless hound’s habitat for more than 3,000 years.
They are part of the historic scenery here, but the canine breed almost became history several years back.
“Now we can say they are safe, saved by this project, but a few years ago the Peruvian Hairless Dog was under threat of extinction in Peru,” said Pedro Vargas, coordinator of the Huaca Pucllana archeological project excavating an ancient temple site of the Lima civilization dating back to 500.
The breed normally has hair resembling a mohawk on the head and a tail brush, but otherwise has naked dark, very warm skin.
