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

So I guess there's a downside to making up stories about Ninjas and posting them on the internet....

Shaolin monks wage internet war against ninja trolls

Overseers of the 1500-year-old Shaolin Monastery in Beijing, where Buddhist practice and martial arts have long been one, are demanding a public apology from some internet dude who claimed online that a Japanese ninja once whupped the asses of the kung fu monks of Shaolin in a showdown.

...

If the ninja propagandist refuses to apologize, the wushu masters say they may sue him. OR WORSE. And that's what I call real ultimate power.

Swouncing

lori!

I love it that you can see how much Grace have grown in the hand-to-hand pictures. I mean, compare this to this, you know?

And I'm sooooo in love with Noah's pictures with Kat. I can't even choose.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

On the positive side of things, hopefully this won't be too expensive. If it is expensive, perhaps you can find a used fan motor at a junkyard or eBay or something....

Uhnnn. We're currently in "Does it actually stop the car from running? No? Then don't bother" mode. Generally the fan isn't a big deal, what with the San Francisco and the temperate to foggy and all (and it still works about half the time; it's just horrid luck that the Manteca trip fell during the wrong half).

I'm so selfishly glad I missed out on Balls of Fury. Hec said it was execrable (though Emmett loved it; not as much as Blades of Glory, his current best movie EVAR, but definitely a two thumbs way up movie for a nearly 11-year-old boy).

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

First casualty of moving/packing. Glass-shaded floor lamp, meet ceiling fan. Cue loud bang and shower of glass. Ceiling fan wins. Crap.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

OK, this was funny:

Nilly - that's exactly why I like taking the "my hand for scale" pictures - they really have grown so much.

Brenda, bummer about the lamp! No collateral injuries?
