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

Between that and training groundhogs, the Terrorists have pretty much got us on our knees. [link]

I think Bill Gates has a screw loose.
Microsoft founder turned disease-battling philanthropist Bill Gates loosed mosquitoes at an elite Technology, Entertainment, Design (TED) Conference to make a point about the deadly sting of malaria.

or b) how publishing's really not that far gone and hey, they just got a new five-book contract for a were-vamp series and their last book just hit the NYT list.

This is cool: immortal jellyfish!
The Turritopsis Nutricula is able to revert back to a juvenile form once it mates after becoming sexually mature.
Marine biologists say the jellyfish numbers are rocketing because they need not die.
Dr Maria Miglietta of the Smithsonian Tropical Marine Institute said: "We are looking at a worldwide silent invasion."

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

Ah, now this is my kind of meme:
11. I hate that I hated you in high school/college, but didn't really know you, and have only friended you to see if you look really fucked up now, but you don't. You look normal. You have too many fucking kids who play too many sports, but you otherwise look pretty well adjusted. I hate that.

I'm sort of sad, though, that the mysteriousness of the maple syrup smell has been revealed. It's more interesting as a mystery than as a solvable problem.
ALSO I'm still looking for a perfume that smells like maple syrup. Maybe I should expand that to include fenugreek perfume?
