Puppycam is down and not taunting you, for once.
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Huh. The Washington Post has an interesting article about the survivors of Jonestown. [link] (It's in the Style section, for some reason. I think I give up on trying to figure out why newspapers put articles in the sections they put them in. The NY Times a few days ago had an article about the rising number of home births put in the Home and Garden section.) Anyway, interesting article. The comments, though, are crazy. Like, way crazier than I've ever seen a comments thread get this quickly. People claiming that pretty much everything they don't like about modern America is just like Jim Jones.

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

The Chron has been running Jonestown and Milk/Moscone assassination pieces all week. The most harrowing was from my congressional Rep. Jackie Speier who was an aide to Leo Ryan, and shot on the tarmac trying to escape Jonestown. She spent 22 hours lying there with five bullets in her body before she was rescued.

I'm totally with amych in the humorless get a puppy for something other than looks bench.
DUDE. I love Australian Shepherds as much as the next guy, but getting them because they are cute and then being put off because they have more energy than you can ever expend without taking them to a herding ring...and the fact that, frankly, they are smarter than most of their people...well...that just ain't right to me.
My next favorite request, "How can I get my Beagle to stop barking." Good luck with that!
Today I have a doggy lama client that is a jumper. At least that I can do something about.

Ted Stevens' loss totally messed up my prediction of Palin becoming a Senator in a special election.

The Post article is by a journalist who was also injured there. He interviews her a bit for this article.

Yeah, I think a lot of people were disappointed by this. Some Dems as well....
Or maybe I'm confusing Dems with comedians.

And bless Uncle Ted for that "mess-up".
