Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

I was wondering if Ben & Jerry was coming out with Nutty Chocolate Breast flavor or something.

They'd probably come out with some wacky name like "Blueberry Boobies" or something....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I almost linked that an hour ago. I LOVE the part about her geeky mom.

Right? The whole thing is fabulous -- so many great parts! I was especially glad Nikki D got a shout-out, myself....

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I think the "make ice cream from human milk" is one of PETA's more clever campaigns. They're pointing out something they consider absurd (humans drinking cow's milk) by proposing something that seems absurd but really isn't (humans drinking human milk).

Granted, they'll get my moo juice out of my cold, dead, hands... but I appreciate their logic.

Does Nutty know?

I can't believe Sistine Stallone didn't make the list, along with her (?) brothers (?).

I think I read a blog post by someone who in fact attempted to make ice cream from her breast milk. It didn't work very well, I seem to recall - maybe the fat balance is wrong?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh they're on there. With a picture.

That Jason Lee's kid may have an odd name but, boy, what a beauty!

Apple comes off as refreshingly pleasant, in that context. I also kind of like Seven. Not that I would name my child either.

Barb, the children were sleeping by the time I got home, so that was good. They were both in Peter's bed, because as Evie explained in the morning, "I knew you would come see him in the night [because he wakes up most nights and I nurse him, yes, still] and you wouldn't come see me [because she blessedly sleeps through] so I decided that if I slept in his bed you would have to come see me." She wasn't wrong! The only mishap was Peter had an unexplained nosebleed. On the plus side they watched Avatar for the first time.
