Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Who would win in a fight between a bald eagle and a swan? [link]
The swan apparently got away. What's weird is the swan in these pictures weighs about 20 lbs, and the bald eagle attacking it (apparently to kill for food) weighs about 10 lbs.
Oh, and the fight happened in midair.

Punishingly Intricate
Believe me, you will get tired of hearing the same thing over and over LONG before I get tired of saying it. Don't even try to outlast me.
That is QUITE the useful super power! go, you!!!
What are you doing this weekend, SUCKERS?!@?!
Tonight cleaning the inside of my fridge. Possibly doing some other cleaning if I can summon the strength. Maybe doing some laundry (incl. the clothes that were on the floor of my closet that a cat took it upon himself to pee on. fucking cats).
Tomorrow going to farmer's market, maybe walking there, and hanging out with my Very Pregnant friend. In the evening being Door Boss at the rollerderby bout.
Sunday, Organize my new kitchen. Go to Target to pick up things kitchen/bathroom still needs. Maybe to TJ's to restock.

Did we not guess the quote yet?
This weekend: Emmett's got a tournament in Burlingame, but I'm kind of burned out on baseball. I might just go down for one day.
Also, I'll be working on the route for the Tom Waits Bus Tour I'm doing with Kim in Los Angeles.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
So ... part of the secret of parenting is just outlasting the little buggers?

Yesterday I received a pretty interesting email. It was sent from Tel Aviv University to sample groups from different universities, mine included (Hebrew University of Jerusalem). It is a research about prostitution and the way it perceived in Israel, with a survey attached. The writer of the email was all about "you pricey is important to us", explaining the surveys will be deleted and a lot of other words like this. And oh, yes, each and every one of the email's recipients is a cc, not bcc.
I'm answering this survey (which lost points for having only Y/N answers and not defining how they define a prostitute at all. I have a (best) friend who is a professional BDSM mistress and makes her living mostly out of it, and I don't think she's a prostitute. Also, I can't write my opinion about prostitution with only Y/N answers, it'll take forever and it only has 12 questions!) just to write them back "My privacy is important to you? Really? Ever heard about bcc?", for it will be fun.
