And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I don't know about heartwarming, but it's odd and a little charming. Yay?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Here's a quick fix for despair. Type "dog saves" into Google News and you get all kinds of stories. Okay, mostly started barking when the house caught fire, but also...

Dog saves hunter

An Austrian hunter's faithful dog saved his life after a crippling fall - by fetching his mobile phone.

Albert Hoffman, 59, was left with severe back injuries and a punctured lung after plunging 20 feet out of a tree while bird shooting.

Unable to move, he called for his pet Labrador to fetch his mobile phone from his nearby rucksack.

An emergency services spokesman in Gutau, upper Austria, said: "His dog is a real hero.

"He was in the middle of nowhere and with the injuries he had if he had not called us soon he could have died."

ita, really want to send you a cyberhug, but seem to remember you don't like them. At any rate I hope this story is one you ran into in the news or on-line, not a personal story a story of a friend or relative.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Here's something good BUT MYSTERIOUS! Today my team finished a doc production that has taken several weeks. Senior associate sent out the following email a half hour ago:

Subject: I scream - you scream!
Please meet me in the lobby at 2:45. That is all.

What does it mean? Is it ice cream? From where? Why in the lobby? Why at 2:45?! I AM SO CURIOUS.
