Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Please don't hate us!

That's kind of terrifying!

One night I was walking around Ann Arbor and saw a GIGANTIC FUCKING RAT. That I then realized was a possum.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, I definitely didn't get one of the jobs I interviewed for. They liked me, but didn't think I had enough experience with the specific software they were using. I learn fast! I coulda done it! Ah, well.

The other people are still deciding. If they say no, I go back to Jamaica pretty soon. Can't afford LA much longer.

Crap, ita. That blows. A pox on all their houses.

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

Of course, the possum that "went" for Trudy at Kristin's wasn't in LA. It was Connecticut, I believe.

It was indeed. None of your slacker California hang-ten-dude oppossoms, oh no. This was a 'possum filled with Yankee vigor and tireless work ethic -- it would have gotten through that double-pained, ADT wired, wire-reinforced, storm window in a matter of moments had it wanted to.

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

ION, Prairie dogs immediately escape from $500k escape-proof habitat

It took just 10 minutes for a dozen prairie dogs to outwit the creators of the Maryland Zoo's new $500,000 habitat.

Aircraft wire, poured concrete and slick plastic walls proved no match for the fast-footed rodents, the stars of a new exhibit that opens today.

As officials were promoting the return of the zoo's 28 prairie dogs - their former digs had been out of sight in a closed section of the animal preserve for more than four years - some of the critters found ways to jump, climb and get over the walls of their prairie paradise, a centerpiece exhibit just inside the zoo's main entrance.

Ack, that blows, ita. I hope you find a job soon. Stupid rassin'-frassin' job market.

So... this means racoons are the frat boys of the wildlife world and possums are... Jason Bourne?
