the food recall only hit certain brands, right?

Yeah, I feed mine 3 different brands of wet food and one kind of dry, none of which were part of the recall.

I know 2^10 because, my freshman year in college, my phone extension was 1024. And my dad instantly said, "Oh, that's easy to remember because it's two to the tenth power." Which would never have occurred to me, but it did stick in my head after that.

How much does he weigh now?

I would say at least 15 lbs.

There was this famous study a while back that showed that depressed people have a more realistic view of reality than non-depressed view. But now I read that this was only in certain specific and trivial cases. Huh.

I learned this in today's Dinosaur Comics: [link]

Heh, that's akin to my pet theory about panic attacks -- that the people who don't have them aren't paying attention.

Some presidential candidate responses to the Supreme Court:

"I'm very happy about the decision given my position on abortion. Partial birth is one of the most odious aspects of abortion," - McCain

"The Supreme Court reached the correct conclusion in upholding the congressional ban on partial birth abortion. I agree with it," - Giuliani

"The ban upheld by the Court is an ill-considered and sweeping prohibition that does not even take account for serious threats to the health of individual women," - Edwards

""I am extremely concerned that this ruling will embolden state legislatures to enact further measures to restrict a woman's right to choose, and that the conservative Supreme Court justices will look for other opportunities to erode Roe v. Wade, which is established federal law and a matter of equal rights for women," - Obama

"Dese rulink is disgustipating" - Popeye

(sorry)

Hmmm. Like Edwards's answer, however, Obama's making me give him the eyes over, "a matter of equal rights for women." I'm sorry boys, you'll just have to fight over me. Now who'll be a good boy and go get me some universal health care?

I think the picture here is worksafe, but it's still wrong: [link]

Is your dog in heat and humping anything it can wrap its horny little legs around? Are you constantly having to pry your promiscuous pooch off the legs of guests, parents and members of your church? Protect your leg from a hump attack by getting Scruffy a Hotdoll.

Or, you know, you could neuter/spay your pets....

I'm just going to pretend that Justice Ginsburg's dissent was the opinion of the court:

Today’s decision is alarming. It refuses to take Casey and Stenberg seriously. It tolerates, indeed applauds, federal intervention to ban nationwide a procedure found necessary and proper in certain cases by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG). It blurs the line, firmly drawn in Casey,between previability and postviability abortions. And, for the first time since Roe, the Court blesses a prohibition with no exception safeguarding a woman’s health.

La la la I can't hear the majority...
