Sigh.

The last four northern white rhinoceros remaining in the wild are feared to have been killed for their horns by poachers and are now believed to be extinct in the wild. Only a few are left in captivity but they are difficult to breed and the number is so low that the species is regarded as biologically unviable.

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

Sigh.

Stuff like that really pisses me off. Endangered animals get killed because people are idiots and believe stupid shit....

ION, how does molasses compare as a sweetener to high-fructose corn syrup?

Men DO MAKE Passes at Girls Who Wear Glasses (Oct, 1965)

Reminiscent of the exciting days of the ‘twenties’ is the new vamp eye-frame by Harlequin for the woman who understands the importance of the gentle art of flirtation. With a vivaciously upswept front, the vamp captures the very essence of femininity. The beveling adds subtle interest to the elegant simplicity of the frame and the gently styled temples with their new up-to-the-minute curves add a distinguished softness.

The vamp has been created in the vibrant tones so popular in both ready-to-wear and accessories this season. There is a stark black for the sheer sophisticate; and excitingly alive brown for wear with all the brown and beige shades; a blue that is as blue as the Mediterranean; a red that positively demands attention; a green that reflects a million emeralds and a white that is whiter than the whitest snow. All these colors have been created with the fashion-conscious woman in mind and the new, exciting and chic styles today certainly refute the old saying, for today … men can’t help make passes at girls who wear glasses!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

molasses has a very distinctive flavor, it's not just sweet. I make a wicked tasty molasses cookie.

Also? I would love to have those glasses, they're adorable.

So today I am meeting up with an old friend from middle school for a brunch/playdate with the kids. I am SO EXCITED about it. She was one of my bestest friends, but we lost touch for about a decade.

Those glasses are adorable times 20.

I thought we got out early today. I was wrong. Doh.

I lost my sunglasses. Again. Der.

Most complex crop circle ever discovered in British fields

The formation, measuring 150ft in diameter, is apparently a coded image representing the first 10 digits, 3.141592654, of pi.

It is has appeared in a field near Barbury Castle, an iron-age hill fort above Wroughton, Wilts, and has been described by astrophysicists as "mind-boggling".

Michael Reed, an astrophysicist, said: "The tenth digit has even been correctly rounded up. The little dot near the centre is the decimal point.

I did worse than lose my sunglasses, I broke one of the arms off. I so need new sunglasses.

Hey Kat, I have a nice bag o' 2T clothes for Noah and Grace. We should make a plan to meet up at some point now that your classes are ending.

Happy Birthday Plei!

Today in my coworkers are insane: The eHarmony page for our ex-Group Manager (she's still here, just with a different title) is printed out on multiple sheets of 8x11-mosaic style and pasted on an entire wall in the cafe.
