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

This is so sad... I gotta admire the kid for showing up at the funeral and apologizing....

Teen offers apology

THE teenager who dealt a fatal kick to his taekwondo opponent last week showed up at the wake on Sunday night to pay his respects.

Accompanied by his parents and sister, the 15-year-old approached the mother of the late Vincent Tan mother, sombre, to offer his apology.

Vincent, 17, died last Thursday, four days after the kick to his neck ruptured a key blood vessel to his brain.

The teen, dressed in black, kept his head bowed as Vincent's grieving mother burst into tears and screamed at him in Malay.

'Why did you hit so hard? You should have been more careful!' cried Madam Nur Julia, 51.

The stout lad took the brunt of this stoically, his head bowed, and nodding occasionally.

It was only when he was taken aside to a table that the dam broke. He turned to his taekwondo instructor and wept.

His mother, who stood beside him as he faced Madam Nur Julia also cried.

The teen's father, aged 55, said his son was traumatised by the incident and had not eaten or slept well for a week, and that he would bar him from taekwondo for the time being.

Vincent, a first-year polytechnic student, will be cremated on Monday.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Awesome!

I have gone out to breakfast, gone to target, realized it was still too early to do any of my other errands at that shopping center, driven to the cash machine near the nail saloon I was hoping would be open, realized I no longer had my wallet, called Target in a panic, realized that if someone who didn't suck had found my wallet, they might have turned it into the Starbucks near the Target, driven back to the shopping center, gotten extremely lucky at Starbucks, given the Starbucks people all of the (not much) cash I had in my wallet as a thank you tip, gone to Petco, Costco and TJs, and am now home.

I think that's enough for the day, right?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Accomplished so far today: woke up, realized I had a nosebleed, swore a few times, cleaned up blood, ate breakfast, went back to bed for four hour. Still to be accomplished today: buy Zyrtec.
