I just assumed that googling "cat fancy" and the name of a state would result in lots and lots of crazy cat stories from that locale.

Phoenix had about 200 last year...of course we also had a team of thrill-killing assholes too, so that won't happen every year.

I swear I thought you were talking about cats at first. Then I was all phew. Then I was all wait a minute, *not* phew.

In conclusion, thrill killing = wrong. Brenda = overtired.

I thought it was 200 crazy cat stories too and then I was trying to figure how thrill-killing assholes worked into a crazy cat story.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

Although I believe the Thrill Killers did kill some animals at the beginning of their stupid spree, yes, that was a cross-post. Stupid digits, type faster!!

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

World's oldest man, WWI veteran dies

LONDON – Only death could silence Henry Allingham.

He went to war as a teenager, helped keep flimsy aircraft flying, survived his wounds and came home from World War I to a long — very long — and fruitful life.

But only in his last years did he discover his true mission: to remind new generations of the sacrifices of the millions slaughtered in the trenches, killed in the air, or lost at sea in what Britons call the Great War.

Allingham, who was the world's oldest man when he died Saturday at 113, attributed his remarkable longevity to "cigarettes, whisky and wild, wild women."

Great. So not only do I need to find a way to donate my car and get it out of the parking spot by Friday (when I'm supposed to go visit my family in Michigan), I also need to buy a new dresser and TV stand because those will be going with the landlord.

...at least I'm not also serving on a jury on the other side of the city all week? That's about all I've got going for me.

Because books.

You guys totally jinxed me. I went for my eye appointment today, passed the air puff with flying colors, only one puff for each eye -- and then the results were screwy and she put the weird numbing drops in my eye so she could do the test the other way!

Numb eyes iz WEIRD.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Volunteers of America were quick to take my car when I was in a similar situation, shrift. And my parents had an easy time donating and old car to a public radio station.

I think we did the Salvation Army for one car and it was pretty quick, but that was quite awhile ago. I can't remember who we donated the Ford Tempo to, we tried to give it somebody (just a person who needed a car) but they wouldn't take it even though it ran fine aside from a noisy water pump. The rusty pickup truck we never really wanted we donated for a church auction.
