Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

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

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

Uh HUH! Now leap over a coupleafew friends and it'll become... legendary.

Are toddlerpedes more or less scary than possums?

Dunno. Do they have bifurcated genitalia?

Are toddlerpedes more or less scary than possums?

To me, less scary, as I'm pretty sure there aren't a dozen or so of the toddlerpedes within 10 yards of my apartment.

Wow. That's some good old-fashioned nightmare fuel there, tommy. I think that may surpass the THING for all-out creepiness.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's kind of awesome. Especially given that I'm currently reading Falling Free (LM Bujold, includes genetically engineered people with four arms and no legs...)

Ann, that's a ferret.

Possums have their appeal, but I wouldn't go as far as to say "charming."

when I was a kid, the neighbors had a pet raccoon. Friendly enough fellow.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

It's sort of awesome and scary!

It makes me want to make one and put it somewhere in my classroom to frighten my children.
