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

Weird-ass hat: [link]

Looks like a bunch of tribbles with bows in their fur, all glued together in a mound and stuck on the model's head.

From the awesome blog Fabulon (some of their stuff is NSFW).

"Light My Fuego."

Hahahahahahaha.

My sister had a friend in college named Maria Adelaida de something or other at least three more names in here what I'm from Colombia and all the women in my family are named Maria. Nicknamed Lali. I kind of like excessive names like that (and understand that they are normal in some cultures; see also: members of the British Royal Family). (Again, not that I did it to my own children.)

I would teleport you a burrito, but I don't teleport burritos food since the incident.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heh. Which is what some of my siblings tried to talk my parents into naming me when I was born.

Did they know they were in a Stallone family theme when they named you Frank instead?

Uh, no. I think it was Sylvester the cat they were thinking of.

“Not dead yet!”

My sister had a friend in college named Maria Adelaida de something or other at least three more names in here what I'm from Colombia and all the women in my family are named Maria.

I have SO many Marias in my family, it's a minor miracle I squeaked out without it anywhere in my name (both my mother and my sister are Marias). I'm also the only one with only two names. My grandmother was really fond of the excessive names, with every one of her six surviving children (she had nine total) being given a minimum of four names. I think my uncle, who was the only boy and her favorite, was gifted with six names.

In my family, we've always thought it was funny in West Side Story when he yells out, "MARIA!!" and only one person answers....

Punishingly Intricate

My grandmother (Irish Catholic) named TWO of her 4 daughters Mary. Mary Elizabeth and Mary Joanne. Mary Elizabeth only ever went by Beth, though.

OMG, this is the cutest widdle car evah! Peapod electric car by Chrysler

And it's actually going to be produced, as a 2009 model.

The Peapod has a top speed of 25 miles per hour and a range of up to 30 miles per charge. Battery charge is extended by regenerative braking and recharge time is approximately six to eight hours.

Top speed of 25 mph? Ugh. Yeah, it's only for city driving, but I'd hate to be driving down Western Ave in that, where people usually drive 35-40 mph.
