Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

“Not dead yet!”

When I was trying to convince Tim that Kato the dog NEEDED a pimp dog costume (what? it has a purple velvet coat! and a big purple velvet hat WITH A FEATHER),

No dog and I mean, no dog needs a pimp dog costume. Jeez, Tep, we've had this conversation. It's just sick and wrong.

And Ginger, I'm glad you came to your senses before succumbing to the evil vortex of Target and dressing the dog as a lobster.

This is why I have really large dogs. The temptation to dress them, not that I've ever had it, is lessened considerably.

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 want to get hold of software that'll allow me to generate a map of the US with state colours user-defined.

I dunno. But if you can't find anything, how about using The Gimp? Since it's scriptable, you could have a file with a list of states with the color you want for each state, and the coordinates of a single point in the state. Then have a script that will fill each state (specified by the coordinate you have) with the color you want.

I can see this being a PITA to figure out if you don't know The Gimp and script fu, so hopefully you'll find an easier solution.

In case anyone still wants to dress up their dogs:

I think Scooby Doo is a GREAT costume for a dog -- people dress as other people after all.

Tep, you pick up that dog's hair. It's not like disagreeing with "Daddy" is going to cause emotional harm. Get the pimp costume!

Hi, and thanks!

For the record, I dressed Lu up one year. I got one of those barrels of monkeys, wrote XX on it with a sharpie, and hung it from her collar. She was a St. Bernard.

So there.

...and I just overheard my father on the phone ordering live lobsters, which he can't afford and I don't actually like. How to delicately put the kibosh on that plan? Maybe I'll send my sister a text.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Happy Birthday, Brenda!

Edit: Live lobsters are fun! [link]
