Cool, thanks. I was just replaying my post-college decision-making process, while watching Parks and Rec. "Why didn't I go to planning school? Oh, right -- because most of the actual jobs out there are like this."

A timely reminder that Christians can't count.

I don't know why I found the last comment here so funny:

Sarospice commented: “I find Jesus' taste in men interesting.”

Sarospice commented: “Now I understand what life is all about! YAY!”

mrpeenee commented: “They have to put the cute one in the middle cause he keeps trying to run away.”

For bt? OK, maybe this really isn't for anyone....

Wombat Poo Paper

Creative Paper manager Darren Simpson says the manufacturing process can be rather unpleasant.

"When we are boiling it, it does smell horrific as you can imagine, but once it has been sterilised and rinsed properly there’s no scent left to it. If anything it just gives you a nice organic smell," he said.

He added that it was the tourists themselves who came up with the wombat idea.

"As people were coming through and we were showing them the samples of our paper, they would throw questions at you like ‘can you make it from sheep poo or can you make it from koalas?’. And the one that kept popping up more than any other was the wombat."

Does anyone know if US citizens need a visa to travel to Hong Kong?

Images of Otsuka as an adult are craftily combined with snaps of the artist as a child, pinched from the family photo album. The resultant composite snapshots are both glaringly literal and astoundingly subtle musings on the contemporary relevance of the self-portrait.

Aww... damn.

Wombat Poo Paper

Actually, my sister-in-law loves elephants, and I bought her elephant poo paper for her birthday last year.

A family friend owns a stationary store in Maine, and usually stocks very nice, expensive stuff, along with etiquette books and books lamenting the decline of written communication and stuff like that. I was very amused to see elephant poo paper last time I was at her store.

Bon bon, no, for up to 90 days.

What cracked me up the most was that "wombat" was the most requested animal to make poo-paper from. I think it's just because "wombat" is so fun to say.

Try it! Wommmmmbaaaaat.

...were not involved. The Minister of Technology (cut to photograph of minister with a wombat on his shoulder) met the three Russian leaders (Russian leaders again all with wombats on their shoulders) today to discuss a £4 million airliner deal....none of them were indigenous to Australia, carried their young in pouches, or ate any of those yummy Eucalyptus leaves. Yum Yum. That's the news for wombats, and now Attila the Bun!
