This is fascinating--"Japan has certified a man aged 93 as the only known survivor of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, both hit by atomic bombs towards the end of World War II."

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

Oh! I saw the (first) post about that, but didn't realize he was a SURVIVOR! I thought he'd survived the first one, and then DIED in the second one, which would be weird enough. He survived BOTH of them?? That's just FREAKY.

My phone just sounded the alarm to let me know I have a hair appointment today at 4:00. It's 4 Fucking 45, goddammit. Why are you only telling me NOW?
Also, I need one more question for this architecture test. ONE.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I need more Tim Hopper in my life. He's a funny, funny man.
I also need to be less clumsy. I think I just jacked up my hand preventing a fall after I tripped over my own feet. Doh.

If the guy's lived to 93 after going through all that, I assume he used up his lifetime supply of bad luck in 4 days.

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 have some vague memory of a whole group of people evacuating from Hiroshima to Nagasaki. The interbunny isn't helping me though.

A day can't be all bad when the front page of the newspaper has a picture of a newborn clouded leopard, right?
