That makes sense. You don't much need that word for the "making snow for ski slopes" machine up there, do you?
True dat.
Yeah, we're building a race of frog-people. It's a good time

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
The dress I'll be wearing to the cocktail party arrived yesterday.
I've heard good things about eShakti -- have you bought anything else from them?
And msbelle earwormed me with Boom Boom Pow.
Plus, since I mentioned Lady Gaga yesterday, I've heard Poker Face about 10 times. And I think I'm starting to like it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's how you know it's good pop music.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Police use Taser on fake cougar
Police in Michigan responding to a report of a cougar on the loose said they ended up shooting a large toy cat with a Taser stun gun.
Warren police said the 911 caller said a "huge" animal resembling "a 150-pound cat" was spotted in an old cement drainpipe in Bates Park and 10 officers were sent to the scene, WDIV-TV, Detroit, reported Monday.
The officers saw the outline of the animal in the pipe and shot it with the Taser -- only to discover it was a large toy cougar.
Police Commissioner William Dwyer said investigators believe the incident, which cost the department $1,000 in wasted police hours from responding to the scene and filling out paperwork, was a prank.
Dwyer said the prankster could face 90 days probation and fines equivalent to the wasted police money if caught.
I bet they're just saying it was a prank because they're embarrassed....

Better to taser it and be safe, it might just turn into a toy when someone looks at it.

I've heard good things about eShakti -- have you bought anything else from them?
This was my first purchase. They didn't send me the "Yep, your order went through" email that they said they would, but otherwise everything went well. The dress seems pretty well made, with good seams and all the beading attached properly. It fits. I'd definitely order from them again.
