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

Birthday happies for Sean K!!!

What's a good made-up word for despised made-up words?

There was a monster in the walls that growled so loud the frames on my wall rattled and I'd cower under the covers.

Later I discovered the true source: it was my dad snoring in the room next door.

Factoid: [link] 23% of USAians claim to have personally seen a ghost. 5% of USAians claim to have personally seen the monster in the closet. As to the latter statistic, I wonder what percent of USAians, when given the opportunity, screw with pollsters.

Some other related questions:

What percentage of USians have a primitive and superstitious understanding of the world?

What percentage of USians are bug fuck crazy?

Happy birthday Sean!

In other news, Tom made cherry clafoutis last night, and it was YUM. FTR, he pitted the cherries.

We were inspired by a recent Alton Brown episode about baking in Dutch ovens.
