Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

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 too cute:

Photo-crashing squirrel

My husband and I were exploring Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park-Canada when we stopped for a timed picture of the two of us. We had our camera set up on some rocks and were getting ready to take the picture when this curious little ground squirrel appeared, became intriqued with the sound of the focusing camera and popped right into our shot! A once in a lifetime moment! We were laughing about this little guy for days!!

Aww...

Retired Justice Sandra Day O’Connor received the Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, just hours after Obama paid tribute to Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the first Hispanic woman to sit on the high court.

“When a young Sandra Day graduated from Stanford Law School near the top of her class — in two years instead of the usual three — she was offered just one job in the private sector. Her prospective employer asked her how well she typed and told her there might be work for her as a legal secretary,” Obama said before hanging the medal around O’Connor’s neck. “Now, I cannot know how she would have fared as a legal secretary, but she made a mighty fine justice of the United States Supreme Court”

Yesterday one of my coworkers was on the phone with his wife, who works at the Supreme Court. She interrupted what he was saying with, "I've got to go, Justice Sotomayor is here" and hung up on him.
