Wasn't it just the other day that someone was asking if there were any giant pink bunnies in Italy?
Artists erect giant pink bunny on mountain [NB: this was a link to an article]
An enormous pink bunny has been erected on an Italian mountainside where it will stay for the next 20 years.
Matt:
Sure, it seems cute now, but what are they going to say when lightning strikes the thing and there's a 200 foot pink rabbit terrorizing the Italian countryside?
Perkins:
That Clovis is at it again?
tommyrot:
I think they will say, "Release the giant pink mountain lion!"
Except in Italian.
juliana:
Liberi il leone di montagna dentellare gigante!

We don't do DB connections anymore for the web, only XMLHTTPRequest, and I keep dealing with people who don't know what to do with raw XML.
Plei:
Glower at it!
(What? It's worked for me since 2001.)
Cass:
If glowering at things is the key, I am shockingly underpaid for my skill set.

In high school a friend of mine had a step father named Roy. When they got a cat, the cat chewed his new pair of shoes.
and we always used to sing...
Pardon me Roy, is that the cat that chewed your new shoes...
and I think of that every time I hear the song.
AmyLiz, discussing the scintillating cocktail party chatter of two relatives:
Their first topic of conversation? The comparative price of milk in different parts of the country.
tommyrot:
Well, it's a significant issue after Katrina shut down all the Gulf coast milk refineries.
AmyLiz:
::smacks forehead::
I forgot!
tommyrot:
Plus Katrina caused a milk tanker to run aground in the Gulf. Disaster was narrowly averted when the National Guard decided not to wait for FEMA authorizaion to activate the Emergency Cat Division.
brenda m:
Which authorization might've come in a lot sooner if W hadn't had appointed a (wealthy and conservative) terrier to head Operation Spilled Milk.
Gudanov:
Limbaugh characterized media complaints about the delay in authorization as "just crying over spilled milk".
tommyrot:
Meanwhile Limbaugh was having his maid buy black-market half-n-half for him. Limbaugh continues to deny rumors that he has a gray Persian named "The Gray Lady" and a Russian Blue named "Mister Piddles."
(Am I allowed to COMM my own husband to add his follow-up?)
