WOW for Glamcookie and DW!!!!
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

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

First 'anti-stab' knife to go on sale in Britain
The first “anti-stab” knife is to go on sale in Britain, designed to work as normal in the kitchen but to be ineffective as a weapon.
The knife has a rounded edge instead of a point and will snag on clothing and skin to make it more difficult to stab someone.
It was invented by industrial designer John Cornock, who was inspired by a documentary in which doctors advocated banning traditional knives.
Mr Cornock, 42, from Swindon, said that the knife will cut vegetables, but will make it almost impossible to stab someone to death and will reduce the risk of accidental injuries.
He said: “It can never be a totally safe knife, but the idea is you can’t inflict a fatal wound. Nobody could just grab one out of the kitchen drawer and kill someone.”
Not by stabbing, anyway. I'd think you could still slit someone's throat with it.

Oh, my stepmother's parents were Meme and Pepe (add French accents).
This is what my parents were always called by their grand children (though it was written as 'Memere and Pepre'). I assume the great grandkids will call Mom 'Memere' as well.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Fantastic news, Glam! Felicitations to you and DW!
Happy birthday, askye!
My brothers and I had a YiaYia and Papou and a Nana and Cappy; Emmett has Grandpa Jack and (? don't know what he calls EM's mom), and Grandpa Neal and Grandma Mary; Matilda has Grandpa Neal and Grandma Mary (Hec's lullaby to her includes a verse about them both watching her from above, so they are present to her even if unseen), and Nana and Papou.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I had Gramma and Poppa (my mom's parents). I called my Great-grandmother Grandma and my dad's mom Grandma McVay.
