DH made two excellent observations today:
1. When Kurt Warner was being interviewed on PTI about how Matt Leinart was taking getting benched over Warner as QB for the Arizona Cardinals, he said that Leinart was "great about it" WHILE SHAKING HIS HEAD.
2. On 60 Minutes, John McCain was asked if Sarah Palin was ready to be president. He replied, "Absolutely" WHILE SHAKING HIS HEAD.
In both these cases, their body language directly contradicts what they were saying. Interesting.
Aw! It's a Komodo Dragon hatching:

Wooja wooja.
Awwww. They're so cute before they're big enough to eat you.

They really are. I wonder if their newborn bite is as icky as a grown up one. Or if they have to cultivate some of that noxious mess they keep in their mouths. It's ... so cute.

Cultivate. Their teeth have serrations, in which bits of meat get stuck, facilitating the growth of toxic bacteria in their mouths. Komodo dragons in zoos are fed a less disease-ridden diet and have better oral hygiene, and don't develop the same toxic bite.
I missed the Emmys completely due to be completely unaware they were airing until I saw it here. Oh well, the morning write ups are filled with yawning about it.
Have a good week, all. I'm facing a big time crunch this week and have to invoke a strict Natter diet.

This working for a living thing sucks.
I have a cold. So much do not want.
It's quiet this morning.
We're all relieved that zoo komodo dragons have good oral hygiene....
I caught up by about 800 post last night, but never to late to say, good to see your posts, tommyrot!
Sort of like my college friend who named his black cat Lucifer, called him Lucy, then wondered why it was the most ill-tempered beast on the planet.
God, this made me laugh and laugh, because I have a friend who's with a woman named Lucy that we all nicknamed Lucifer, and, well... the rest of your sentence is not unapplicable. I should probably edit this, but, really, what are the chances?
