Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oooh! I love the little macaroni penguins! They were wee fluffy cutebombs of notsosmartness.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

WTF?

Well, that and wherever in Florida they were keeping Mumble.

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

Plus they go good with cheese.

ION, I think the government should institute a program where no one has to live more than a five hour drive to an emperor penguin.

Why do Koalas have to be so far away from me? I will have them ship a few over and I will apprehend one...

I have an idea - the government should create a giant emperor penguin tube farm that stretches across the 48 contiguous states. Then the emperor penguins come to you!

Penguin tube farm - delivered by pneumatic tube, should a penguin emergency arise?

I'm here to report on Matilda's words. Now in her almost 14 month possesion: Ma-Mom, Dao (also Da, that would be me), doggie, giddy (kitty), Bye (with hand wave) and Wow!

She knows who Emmett is but has dropped Em-em from her list for now. But she can point to his picture or room on command. And indeed, when I urged to her to, she ran over and punched him in the ass tonight. (Trust me, he deserved it.)

The whole thing is cute, but the early attempts at wailing on one's much older sibling is definitely hilarious.

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

Is your cat maybe a macaroini penguin?

Puppycat would be entirely offended by your question were she not currently chasing her tail. Unsuccessfully.

In other words, yes. Or maybe slightly dumber, but no less cute.
