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

It was your antifreeze toothpaste, tommy. They're trying to keep us from knowing.

Heh.

Were we just briefly down

Yes. In a weird way. It looked like a blank page was loading, instead of any error message.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Between this and the pet food thing, I'm getting increasingly nervous about things manufactured in China. I fully expect to wake up next week and find that all the cheap plastic crap in my apartment has started leaching toxic fumes into the air, causing my toaster oven to become self-aware and turn evil.

What is even happening?

CB2 Child Robot is possibly the most disturbing machine ever built

DOES IT HAVE A PLAN?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I suspect this is likely.

causing my toaster oven to become self-aware and turn evil.

This too, but I always thought it was the fault of Cthulhu, not the Chinese.

Swouncing

think how very this century it will be to get them all Skyping early.

They have all these toy phones (and toy cell phones) - do you think they'll make toy computers as well, or go straight to the real thing?

On my screen, too.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Happy Birthday, Dana!

I found a channel on On Demand that has Sarah Jessica Parker reading the book Owen to the animated story. It's 11 minutes long and Owen has the book but he wants to watch the video over and over and over. And over.

Poor noodle Mac. I hope he catches up on his sleep.

I'm avoiding skeery robot links.

Punishingly Intricate

aw my post was lost!

um...

Nilly, I'd be a total mess if my best friends w/ the babies moved away. It's so much harder then if it's just grown up friends moving. although that's no picnic either. So strength to you and I hope you get to visit them soon!

Happy birthdays, Dana & Ellie!

Also, congratulations Kalshane and GF! Your baby is A. Dorable. I hope his problems resolve quickly and you get to bring him home.

I'm about to go meet with my team to tell them i'm leaving. And then with my boss' boss to talk about it. oi. I am a bit of a show off but sometimes I REALLY hate having to be the center of attention.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I thought it was me!

I was just saying that I'm going to eliminate all plastic from my life.

Heh - the toddlers I know don't seem to have any interest in the toy versions of cell phones -- they can tell Mom & Dad are withholding the really good toys. (One of my co-workers has already been through 3 Sidekicks!)
