"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I suppose he's too old, but I wish we could have Bob Bergland [link] back as agriculture secretary. He was great -- anti-big agriculture, hardworking, willing to speak unpleasant truths and pretty funny. (Okay, I once had a crush on the Secretary of Agriculture.)

As Jessica says, the problem with an anti-vaccination stance shows a basic lack of understanding about how science works, which is scary in almost any major government position.

Perzactly. And he also called folks who don't believe in global warming "terrorists" and I've had enough of that kind of name calling from my federal officials, thankuverymuch.

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

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: CINDY McCAIN CAUGHT CHEATING ON J-MAC!

There is a somewhat fuzzy picture of kissage. Apparently there are numerous witnesses too.

eta:

A reader notes that this story is particularly dubious because Cindy McCain was on a trip to Kosovo at the time of the festival where the photos were supposedly taken.

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

It really would be giggle-worthy to see a rich chick throw over her husband for a younger man.

Oh no - now Spirit is in danger!

eta: The picture is weird. Caption:

The deck of NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit is so dusty that the rover almost blends into the dusty background.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm gonna have to go sit with Jessica, Ginger and Sparky on RFK Jr.

Also, HAPPY JESSICA DAY!

Lord, I've got a metric assload of work today. The short week is theoretically nice but actually punishing.

I'm gonna have to go sit with Jessica, Ginger and Sparky on RFK Jr.

Shove over, babe.

Cat came back — 13 years after going missing

SANTA ROSA, Calif. - A couple recently had an unexpected reunion with an old housemate: their pet cat who went missing more than 13 years ago. George, who was last seen by Melinda Merman and Frank Walburg in 1995, was turned into an animal hospital after the manager of a mobile home park trapped the sickly feline.

A microchip implanted in George allowed him to be traced back to his owners.

Merman said after George went missing she visited animal shelters and wrote to veterinarians in search of the gray, yellow-eyed cat, who now weighs less than half what he used to.

But Merman and Walburg said the cat is now eating well and displaying some of his old behavior, like jumping at flickering light on the wall the way he used to.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
